Noice, what about this bad boy with black watch pants, came in the mail yesterday from Ocooney. I know Tom James/Holland & Sherry doesn't get much love on here, but this thing is bad ******* ass.




Killer SC! Those thick, beveled horn buttons and girthy button shanks look unmistakingly Oxxford. I am clueless to the Tom James/Oxxford relationship but IIRC Oxxford made/makes their MTM jackets. :slayer:

Are you keeping it? I've been looking for one for ever. Please tell me it's not your size, and it's a small.

It's got Holland & Sherry tags as well as a Ventura tag and also says "Exclusively Tailored for Ben Buettell", and also has the same name on the content tag.

Hit 2 stores right next to each other, pretty nice haul

2x Vineyard Vines "Whale" Polos - eBay bound
3x 36W Patagonia shorts
36W Arc'teryx Adventus shorts
40W Berle Indian Patch Madras shorts - most likely AAAC bound
40W RL Purple Label Navy Blue cotton trousers - similar to this, except cotton (who is the maker with these tags?) - will need to get better measurements, since there is no size tag, but available on here
TM Lewin tie (navy/light blue repp) - me
Dormeuil tie - probably for me, seemed well made and cool belt as stripe design (sounds weird but cool)

Thrifting mystery! This is the only thing I scored at lunch: Canadian 3-btn BB Blazer in Loro Piana. One tag says cashmere, the other says wool. Also, the Loro Piana tag doesn't specify cashmere (on my other BB, cashmere is emblazoned across the bottom of the tag).

It's doesn't really feel like cashmere, so what's the deal with the tags?

Just linked to the haul on ebay in my signature.

Also, I want to make a last call to see if people want 42R suits or NWB Bijan ties. I'm not marking these ones up much.

Whose eBay account is that?

This thing is badass. In my size too...If I didn't have a Gloverall in a super similar colorway I'd get on this.

330CK, that J Press is awesome. Following up on that and the few toggle coats posted yesterday, I found what may be my coolest find yet last night in the women's coats section:

Vintage Navy Brooks Brothers Made in England Wool Pea/Toggle Coat With Rad Blackwatch Lining -
