Wow that was quick, is it as baller as it looked in the listing?

He was only like 4 hours away. It's definitely just as baller but I was hoping his measurements were off since it's tagged 42. Unfortunately they weren't

Something to lihghten the mood.TRUE THRIFT!

Love that linen Brioni. I wish they would put up some modern fits, every Brioni my size fits like a tent, and every one sized down the arms are too short.

I feel the same way about me driving behind stoned people.

I bet you get that A LOT.

The tale of the Loro Piana leather continues... I popped up to the same shop again this morning, and inevitably someone had parted with the $85 needed for the jacket in the 30 minutes between when I left last night and when they closed (I got in right at opening.)

Good thing too, since it was utterly destroyed and needed a complete redo, you just saved yourself hundreds of dollars and hours of work :/

Some mid-day meh, just to post some finds.
Ethriftish, was an "unbranded" cashmere polo


2pcs of J. Crew niceness



EZ silk cashmere




also scored for cheap because content tag was missing, 100% cashmere


One of those W&G I found earlier. Strange details on both of them.

In the field and could use a quick response. Pamela Anderson?

Been a long time coming. Not spoilering because Savile Row. N/A

Also found this the other day. I believe it's from the 30's and it's MINT! Kinda wish the back patch was still present.

The label on the big blade looks Kate Upton but the print on the small blade looks Kardashian

Well, this e-thrift showed up really fast:

Just a heads up, since it didn't work for me. If these measurements fit anyone who's interested:

23" chest, 24" sleeves, 31" BOC and 19.5" shoulders.

I'll let it go for cost+ship. Thanks.

Offered to him first via PM but didn't work for him, either.

Thought so, thank you!

The keep looks similar to the recent Versace keeps. Any other labels?

Fail:

a coupla weeks ago i was in GW and they have these "island" cases near the entry where they put the silver and sunglasses and stuff...

in fact, there was a minty pair of B&L ray-bans with SIDE CUPS! so stoked, so i called the lady over to open 'er up and made a little small talk with an older lady also hovering at the case...

me: "so what are you gonna look at?"
her: "silver earrings"
me: "nice!..."

and then the employee comes over and like i gentleman i defer to the lady who was also waiting. she goes "yeah, i'dliketolookattheseearringsandalsoi'dliketoseethesesunglassesthankyou!"

****. guess i gotta check my chivalry at the door...
