DIBBBBSSSSSS!!!!! PLEASEEEEE!

 

 

Thought you were a 32

I thrifted a pair of Barry Bricken pants last year and though mine lack the Incotex similarities, I like em.

Picked this up for Tben because the store tagged it as a 38, but turns out they were way off, since it fits me (Sorry T). So T's loss is my gain, if I decide to keep it. Anyone familiar with Mark, Fore & Strike (apparently a now closed Cape Cod store)?

Seems very similar to this one http://www.etsy.com/listing/100775395/vintage-41r-blue-crash-linen-sack-jacket

 

 

Also picked up some big boy staple suits.

BB Makers Brooksease 2 button navy (46 XLG) FF pants (38x32)

 

 

 

 

 

BB Brookease 3/2 charcoal (48R) FF pants (38x32)

 

 

 

And a mostly thrift fit (tie is Chipp2 grenadine received for Hannukah)

nice one on the belt!

Where would Faconnable fall on the shirt scale. I saw a bunch of them today but left the because they'd be too small for me and I had no idea of reputation. Should I watch for them for myself? Or anyone here?

resale on facconable isnt too high, good for yourself as its a nice brand.. last time I checked anyway

Machine sewn, usually classic (read: baggy) cuts. But they do get nice fabrics/patterns and generally use MOP buttons.

I have that same tie and wear it all the time. Thinking of getting a couple more this spring. For anyone else interested in affordable grenadines from Chipp2, here is the link to PutThisOn's article.

It was the fabrics that caught my eye as I was going down the rack; they were pretty nice, and interesting patterns (well, except on the solid white). Anyway, thanks to all for the guidance, I'll probably skip them even for myself since I hate classic cuts.

 

 

 

First thrift find that fits. This is an older Zegna label right?

You got the pants too, right?

They were still setting out new stuff and I was in a hurry. I'll check back tomorrow. Five bucks seemed like cheap insurance in case they show...
