I need to give a big shout out to Fueco, for a fantastic trade biggrin.gif

Another big shout out to some of my local competition, Wizard Swears. Not only did he trade two Isaia shirts in my size for some Skeet Blanks, but he also let me walk out of the store with an Isaia jacket that he pulled off of the rack (even if it was an orphan). Thanks dude icon_gu_b_slayer[1].gif

Californians do a decent job of throwing out good stuff, don't they?

 

...I wouldn't want to thrift boxers...

guys... did I just ruin a pair of shoes... I put mink oil on some boots yesterday than put polish on them today....

Sick as a dog, you guys should be glad you can't catch this vile cold over the Internet. Ugh.

Today's find.

Vintage...short sleeved wool cardigan? Shirt? Where was this intended to be worn? Also if it has a button in the back of the collar, is that designed to keep a tie in order, or just to keep the collar from going sloppy?

Also, any guesses on vintage? I say 50s-early 60s, my wife -- who is a font expert but not a clothes expert -- is betting older

Here's a tip. NEVER get the steak. It tasted like a salt lick. A cold salt lick.

Listen man, Im from New York. We have no WH's. The first time I went down south I discovered the joy that is an all star breakfast. I dream about fucking waffle house. I abandon my family every morning when I am in the south to go to waffle house. Im drunk as shit, 3am? waffle house. I wake up in the morning, wanting to scatter, smother, and cover something. I (srs) contacted waffle house about buying a franchise here in NY the day after I first ate it. I have a collection of waffle house ties. I have waffle house hats and t shirts, and those pins that the servers wear. Id take a salt lick steak any day of the week if it meant I can get a waffle. /rant ifuckinglovewafflehouse

I may never find Kiton.  But I have a Waffle House just down the street.  Little victories.
