The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Page 489

Are the shoe trees included in the sale?

Nah, did that already. Feel free to check them out in my signature link!

"Maybe once"? Look at your shoes:



Now look at these new shoes:



There's no way your shoes have been "worn maybe once" or "are almost brand new". Unless the one time they were worn was during an intense marathon.

jesus christ are you over it...dont take it so literall,YES they look almost brand new using the "used shoes scale" have you seen some of the shit that people post where they think they are in good condition? i own MANY pairs of shoes mostly cheaneys,and i know what a sole/heel looks like when you wear it more then once or twice...okay 3 times.satisfied?

Found a heavy leather NWOT RRL belt today at a goodwill. Kind of a strange design though..not one of their vintage models and the configuration and small buckle made me wonder if was a women's belt. Will post pics shortly (and may post in the RRL thread to get some answers).

Had the day off so spent the afternoon thrifting. Live in a pretty hopeless area as far as thrifting goes, but still managed to find some good stuff. A soft BB black/grey herringbone coat, Gant shirt, Charcoal Pendleton pants that are probably getting sold(a bit too big), and a reversible Bally's belt. Also saw an amazing red/black cashmere herringbone Etro tie, but it was too beat up to be saved. Was only $2 too, oh well. Saw a few Gant and Gitman shirts too that I passed over.

my unfortunate streak of finding beautifull orphaned suit coats in my size continues...
todays heartbreak was a super 120s/cashmere blend, charcoal pinstripe, double breasted, surgeons cuff Isaia. I've never found Isaia before.

we're a peaceful bunch. if you want to brag about your shoes to us, at least be nice.

Found some Dexter Navigators Made in USA. Not sure how old they are but have the knot on the leather instead of the new wierd symbol.
They were nicely broken in and fit amazing the soles are in great shape. Paid $10. I love them!

This.

RRL belt

Dude just liked to cut a rug!

Just this last weekend I saw the same thing at one of my regular stops. They had about 10 Zegnas, 3 Oxxfords, and a few Hickeys, all of which were gone a couple days later. You'll probably see some ebayer selling a bunch of orphaned jackets soon.

The pros will always pick the the places clean of anything remotely valuable.

Did you check the pants section? Sometimes suits get separated, but remain together in the same store.
