The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Page 4235

Sorry bro, I don't think these are the Edwin you are looking for. I bought a same pair in black. For $4, I'd say it's a good flip for maybe...$20?

Corneliani 46R

 

 

HF 40-42R ish

Here is the London Fog coat I picked up on Friday for almost nothing. Is a size 42 and I am closer to 46 so will be putting it up for sale or trade soon. 

 

 

 

 

To everyone who has been blowing up my phone with messages about the APC coat, I dont have time to respond yet, but I will. 

For a second I thought you meant modern-day Beach Boys, what with what seems to be a Robert Graham licensing deal!




This is so sweet!

I'm a huge Beach Boys fans so I, of course, dig your Pendleton. But when they played the Grammys last year they were all wearing Robert Graham shirts. They are the perfect demographic representatives for the RG shirts.

 

 I see... I missed that one.

U always have interesting stories! 

Well i can tell you that I wont be blowing up your phone over the coat, but wouldnt mind some details on it! its awesome.

I don't know. I've never found Paul Smith before. I know that Ben Sherman stuff seems to run smaller than the tag says.

This w/e finds....nothing mind blowing but some really cool items.

Everything will be looking for a new home except for the Army sweater. If anything interests you shoot me a PM.

Please kill the ties with fire. ASAP. The jacket is ancient, and not in the good way. Late 80's-early 90's. None of this was worth what you paid. No offense, just constructive criticism. Save your monies for the good stuff.


Nope. Those are just your ordinary ugly 90's jeans, sadly. You're looking for basically the same characteristics you would for regular high-end denim. Raw or dark, stiff, selvedge and maybe a buckle back. Chances of finding a good pair in the US (besides LA) are slim because I don't know anywhere that sells them here. Only place I've seen them for sale new is in Japan.

This is the good stuff:

Owch!


I'd be all over the bottom Orvis shirt, but I know they run big. Nice haul, though!

One more post before I go run and swim... Rocked the GW pretty well.

APC Cords, NWT -34 (might be available)
Berle for Nordstrom Blackwatch pants (might be 32, need to measure -mint)
Zegna silk shirt, black. Large. Available
Patagonia hiking shorts, n/a

Lately it's been mostly not very exciting stuff. Only thing I found in the past couple days that I really liked, and I'm keeping.
