Well, they are known for making decent selvedge denim. Some would call their stuff intro to selvedge. Nice stuff.

Diffusion. I think Brian was able to successfully flip them.

 

 

 Hmm, I guess I did only recently learn what selvedge actually looks like...

 

 I almost picked up a pair of vintage selvedge a week or two ago. I passed because they were overalls. Later, I looked on Ebay, and found Big Mac overalls selling for nearly $300. Can't skip stuff like that anymore without researching!!

 

 I will attempt to flip the R&G. We'll see what happens.

 

 I also picked up a few sellable ties (two BB Makers and one Coach).

Sorry to bump this, but it was one of my last posts as a newbie.  Ended up showing up about 5 pages into the history almost a day later. :)  

 

Anyone recognize the maker of this tag ? Made in Italy for Brooks Brothers.

Thanks!

Thanks!

I would pick up all APC, jeans or otherwise (except for madras by apc, that's their diffusion line) They aren't necessarily the top of the line stuff but they are a very popular brand. No matter what it is you won't have a problem selling it. (and if it's mediumish range let me know wink.gif )

Pretty sure it's Lardini. I have one too, actually the only suit that is in my permanent wardrobe...at least until I shed a few more pounds.

Da fuq all these hauls...
post #62262 of 70973

Hermes are all fake.  Please dispose of them at my premises immediately.

 

Jk, all look legit from here, only the red w/blue pindots one is slightly suspect because of how blocky the Hermes logo is on the small end.

Incredible! It's almost like someone planted an Hermés tree and it was ready to harvest. That would be a blast to pick through a bin like that.
