They say persistence pays off, right? Well, that's what I keep telling myself. Still waiting for tax season to show it's face.

FOOOOOOOOOOOOO REAAAAALLLLL

I havent found anything this whole tax season. Woe is me

What the hell is going on with all the vintage hiking boots lately?

Synergy for sure - just passed on some Matterhorn hiking boots. I wasn't sure about the quality because the edging all around the top appeared to be vinyl.

Out of focus and over-exposed thrift fits for the day:
HT SC - thrifted
Etro tie - thrifted
Zara slim fit shirt - thrifted
PS - thirfted. Not quite right but Blue + Red = Purple from more than a few feet away
Boss pants - retail
Overcoat - thrifted
Sorrels - retail
Shoes? Thrifted, hidden away in my brand new Filson bag (bought with my ebay sales money).

Can anyone (SW&D dudes?) give me any more info on these? I know where they're sold, but had never heard of them.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Madras! Goes to figure on one of the bone-chillingest days so far!

Wow, nice finds!! Warehouse is a Japanese maker. Damn nice stuff with great fits. Retail is $250-ish. They did a collab with J.Crew recently and I missed out on a pair in my size for $40 last year

Wow. All those charvet shirts in what look to be great condition. W o w. Only picked up a few things today:

Alden indy boots.. not sure on size, it's rubbed off, probably 9.5ish. Not in the best of shape but.... indy boots for $4.50

mint womens ll bean insulated maine hunting boots

florsheim imperial shell cordo loafers

nice AE penny loafers

got some other stuff too... 3 button 44l zegna traveler suit dual vent, patch madras polo pants, fray shirt

 

[horse's_ass]

Neither of these are new pickups, per se, but they are things that I've grabbed for myself. Unfortunately the tailoring costs are a bit more than I want to pay at this point in time, so both available. Both are around a 38R/ish.

H. Freeman & Sons wool flannel FU POW. FF Plants.

Older Jos A Bank 3 piece gray suit. FF pants, sack. Solid gray. Really nice piece, looks similar to the suit worn in the fit pic green machine (IIRC) posted yesterday.

Indys are my grail thrift find.

[/SPOILER]

Indys are my grail thrift find.

i was pretty pumped to find them. i've thrifted 3 pairs of alden boots life time now (4ish years of thrifting):
shell cordovan chukkas, burgundy, too big for me - sold to japan for $355
dead stock pebble grain on vibram sole, too narrow for me - sold for $165
now these.... a size too big for me LOL

i've probably thrifted 50-75 pairs of alden shoes in that timespan but only the 3 pairs of boots. go figure

 

[Randomore]

Nice haul bytor.

 

[horse's_ass]

Boots are pretty much the hardest thing to thrift, IMO.

Rarely do I find good ones. If I do find a nice pair, they are usually twerked to ****.

I joined after Frency disappeared but based off what he's posted we are in the same hunting grounds...I passed on his suede bally loafers in store a while back and was checking out his retro glass/wood coffee tables after they were purchased and put aside with a sold sign on em

+1 warehouse denim gets a lot of love for their fit and fades. good spot
