The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[sparrow]

That's a big NO!

Why is that a bad pick? dated? or fake?
thanks

My wife took the good camera for her night our with friends so the few things tomorrow I'll post the few things I found tonight.

However, I had to share this thing. Pics on my iphone, so washed out. this is really in cobalt blue and it shimmers. Made by a local menswear store still in existence. fake ticket pocket flap but also ff trousers.

On another note, this is the most fantastic shearling coat I have ever seen. It was a rich caramel colour. Size 42. Great big leather buttons. Happy to proxy for someone who wants it - but it will weigh quite a few pounds.

Spoiler: More photos

Bro, that sucks your parents can't pay for your college but going to the community college is a great route! Berkeley is a very divers city. Besides the homeless problem, I think you will enjoy living there. Tons of libs hipster chicks! Can you say skinny jeans and mustaches?

Dude, I'm about 40 minutes away from there. I hear the thrift scene is pretty cool, too.

yeah I hope while going to community I can save up some money for the eventual financial ruin that is graduate school. berkeley is awesome I go there and oakland all the time I actually worked in oaktown for a while and know the area really well and can confirm that yes there are a ton of hot hipster girls but the closer you get to oakland the more likely it is they are lesbian (oakland has the highest amount of lesbians per capita in the us) the thrift scene is tight some of my best find have come from NO WHERE IN BERKELEY **** OFF NOOBS

Shhhh, don't give away the spots!

no I am happy to help people out I don't hit it that often anyway and it is fairly well known they get new inventory all the time
also on a side note is it correct to call RRL "Ralph ralph lauren" or only "double ralph lauren""?

 

[FaceOfBoh]

I've seen Double R L

but I have some real yard apes running wild.

Ha! That's what my Dad used to call me. I haven't heard that term used in ages. Warms my heart.

Are you talking about these?
Did he send you the same shoes in the picture? Are you sure they're shell?

Ian, those are not shell.

"Double RL."

IIRC, it's named in honor his ranch, "Ralph & Ricky Lauren".
