I know this isn't really the right thread for this, but does anybody recognize this tag? I was going through a pile of stuff I forgot I had and pulled out a blazer with this tag on it.

$3 I think. In a frame along with some other rare stuff such as the Batman poster you see underneath. Framed the Mcguiness and hung it in my sons room and will sell the 3 or 4 other items from the frame.

They needed to get rid of them at a store that was closing and the Manager basically gave me 13 for the price of 1. I bought one for myself (my Wife gathers Women's goods to sell) and then the rest I will flip.

I've been shuttling ceaselessly between home, work, and consulting gigs and haven't been able to thrift in a week and a half, so here's an out-of-focus thrift fit.
Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)


Tweed jacket is BB acquired from EazyE - thanks, man! Fits great after tailoring.
Shirt is thrifted Gant by MB, sweater is non-thrifted Uniqlo, jeans are thrifted Gap selvage.
Pocket square by Air Tie shog[1].gif

* Edited to add spoiler.

I replied to Cap's original response, but I looked at the old sheet and decided to keep going with mine because it was it more thorough. I think it can streamline the trading process much more effectively (by including fields for ideal shoulder measurements or a range of acceptable shoulder measurements for instance). Mine is more of a catalog of sizes and preferences as opposed to a trading ring.

Picked one of these up a month or so ago. Quality is decent, but the look on the SA employee's face when she saw the text made the purchase worth it.

Busy week, but a teaser of what I hope amounts to the majority of my spring break financing.

Picked this up at a consignment shop ($18) for the GF, so NA.


Taken after she wore it so yeah... wrinkly.


On the subject of LBCS


Dual vented, 3/2 roll


I have honestly no clue how you guys ID by tags, so is this St Andrews or Attolini? I'm guessing the latter due to the styling?


tentatively NA - checking my dad's measurements
