The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Page 4022

I know there was some discussion awhile ago about how fuck ugly high end menswear jeans are, well, feast your eyes on this: Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)

Attolini. Check out the first page of this thread. Pretty easy to tell between Attolini and St. Andrews, both of which you should memorize because they make for others more than themselves.

Nice finds, but is that an orphan? Is it patterned enough to be worn as a SC?


[Rummages through closet] Yup. Got those. At the absolute pinnacle of fashion.

Stromberg's? Are you in Albuquerque?

Pics of the Allen Edmonds belt I thrifted yesterday. I was lamenting just last week how I never find decent belts. This one was priced the same as a Dickies belt (which retails for 1/10th what the AE belt goes for) sitting next to it on the shelf at GW. Thank you thrift gods!

Also, does anyone know this Gant label?

Thrift fit:
Lands End made in Austria loden sport coat, sleeves may be a touch short, but close enough that I'm not going to fuck with them.
Marks & Spencer check shirt
Unknown Ancient Maddder tie, does the tag look familiar to anyone?
Camron of Scotland cashmere sweater vest
Levis cords, not thrifted
Non Peal & Co BB suede bucks

Nice. I think this coheres.

Only find for the day.

AE Viking II size 10.5 avail.

Thrift fit for today.

Pendleton shirt, AE belt, Worn Brand jeans, Born boots. Everything thrifted except the boots (they were from a Scratch and Dent sale at REI).

Had to get out of the house (knew I had to clean the snow off my car so it wouldn't ice over, wanted to do something), so went to what thrifts were open on one run I hadn't done in a bit. Nothing major, my first Sulka bought though (passed on one at a different store on this run before, beautiful but way too damaged). Left to right is Sulka, PRL wool, PRL.



The lighting is terrible in my room right now, so flash ruined the colors a bit. Sulka is tan/navy stripes (with small light blue stripes), and the regular PRL is this grey/green color with grey paisleys and bits of pink. Not sure how often that'll get worn, but I dig it. I really like the wool PRL though, big FU contrasting blade. I've wanted a tie very much like this one (maybe not wool but *shrug*) for a while.

Left another Sulka (damaged), a bunch of old, stained BB Makers, and a Hardy Amies that felt like the not-shite HA (but the pattern was just a bit too much for me). Also saw a meh Burberry suit at $50 in a GW.

Just picked up this Fray shirt. Never handled any of their stuff before but I've heard them mentioned on here. Tag states handmade in Italy with MOP's. Seems nice enough and I liked the pattern. Whats weird though is that it has two breast pockets. Something I didn't notice until I got home.

Did you look for a RN # on the back of the tag?

^^^^^ Woah, just did a little research and it looks like retail on Fray shirts is $600?!? Is that right?

Ha, there is, just checked, and it's a Rooster, thanks!

P.S, I just saw that you won the thrift store runway contest, good job!

Thanks man! I was suprised.
