Picked up this new-with-tags Brooks Brothers classic brown herringbone sportcoat, size 45XL.



PS: Does anyone have any recommendations for photographing items, such as lighting and specific details?

Nice pickup.

The lighting question has been covered a number of times indepth both in this thread if you search and also here http://www.styleforum.net/t/309281/...icks-problems-questions/1300_100#post_5924126. If you have a specific question in regards to lighting and photographing stuff I would ask it in the link I just provided and you will get a better answer/discussion as this thread moves too fast.

Anyone have experience with Massimo Dutti? I picked up a pair of flat front chinos made by them yesterday. They reminded me of the Incotex I picked up a few months back. I think they are a 32 waist got they are available.

Anywhoo, nice stuff Cap. That bespoke Dormeuil (whatever; I don't know how to spell it) had my attention, but I'm being good for the Holidays.

I left a gorgeous Domenico Spano three-button peak lapel cashmere blazer in a thrift on 4th Street in San Rafael, CA. Had to get out of the in-law's house for a few minutes, but didn't feel like carrying home something that didn't fit me. It was maybe a 40 R or so.

I have been with the family for Thanksgiving and haven't had an opportunity to post my finds so this will be a short post. Some seriously great finds have come up recently and I have enjoyed seeing what everyone has grabbed. Found two ties and need have some questions with the first one.


Is this the Chanel I'm looking for? Real or fake? Good find, mediocre find, bad find? Any help would be appreciated.




Also found my first Etro.





I'll try to post my other finds later when I have more time. Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving.
