Second Spiewak in as many weeks. n3b this time tho.

this reminds me... if anyone has one of these N-3B's laying around in a S, 36, or a 38. I'll buy. Already posted this in the Unofficial buy/sell/trade thread but no bites so hoping this works better.

Is this a thing? Ebay seems to think it's worth something, but I'm not familiar with the brand, and googling only brings up vintage ebay listings.

I have Mayor Maurice Tobin's tuxedo, presumably worn to FDR's third inaugural dinner. Maybe not A-list today, but he must have been on the A-list in 1941 to go to that dinner.

Will Smith - Tom Ford suit

I'm still bummed I missed the ebay auction of that suit, I'm pretty sure it would have fit.

That looks amazingly comfortable.

Made my last run of the year today. Was a great friggin year and looking forward to everyone's finds next year. Thank you all for your inspiration and camaraderie!

Last haul of the year. Two fox coats are for my wife, and when she tires of them, I'll make a pillow out of them.

Really sorry, quite a bit off-topic.

To those that have kids:

I would like a separate bag to keep baby (and dog) things. My wife's will inevitably be filled with magazines, bags for the grocery store, and 5,246 of the keychains she has. Anyway, should I just look for something I like or are there things I should be considering? My natural inclination is to go for leather, but I'm not sure if there is some reason that would be a bad choice. Any recommendations/tips you can offer?

Nice haul. Makes me have hope for my Milwaukee trip next month.


Seriously, how many pair of Allen Edmonds do you find there?

I'll de-lurk for a moment to say based on my frequent trips back to Milwaukee (and here in Madison) there's probably more AE than elsewhere, but: a) the population probably wore/wears fewer dress shoes, and b) they're also pretty thrifty, so condition is going to be a big concern.

You (or I) are more likely to find shoes from the less celebrated Wisconsin manufacturers: Nunn Bush, Stacy Adams and Freeman, with the odd Mason or Weyenberg thrown in. I'd also be happy to share my thoughts on specific stores if you want to message me.
