Just before I switched jobs, I went on a thrifting spree, some of which I listed on the Thrifting Thread. I've divested some of it already, but find myself with plenty. So here's what I've got now (not likely to change as I've got a new job to learn). Primarily interested in sale, but could do trade for the right item(s). PM me with offers (please!) Shoes: Allen Edmonds Park Avenue cap toe in Brown, 13D Church's Custom Grade brouged wingtips in light brown, 9D (?)

Alright, gonna list all the Oxxfords I have available in one post for reference. 5 SC's and 1 suit.


Oxxford super 150's brown/black houndstooth SC. Unvented, fully lined/canvassed.



Shoulder-to-shoulder: 20"

Pit-to-pit: 22"

Chest: 21"

Sleeves: 26'

Length from BOC: 34"



Oxxford super 100's houndstooth suit. Unvented, fully canvassed/lined. Pants are double pleated and cuffed.




Jacket size same as above

Pants size: 18" waist, 32" inseam. 1.5" cuff. They're even sorta long on me(6'7") so I believe the rise is pretty high? Pant Length overall: 44.5".


Measurements on the first two are the same as they're from the same donor.


Oxxford super 120's black w/ magenta(or fuscia?) and faint gray glen-plaid pattern. Single vented, 2 button and fully lined/canvassed.



Oxxford super 100's glen-plaid SC. This thing looks awesome...and green haha. Single vented, 2 button and fully lined/canvassed.



Oxxford light grey POW pattern SC. Single vented, 2 button and fully lined/canvassed.




Oxxford houndstooth with a nice tan/beige check pattern SC. Single vent, two button and fully lined/canvassed.






Shoulders: 19"

Pit-to-pit: 21.5"

Sleeves: 23"

Chest: 20.5"

Length from bottom of collar: 30


Those are the measurements from the bottom 4. They're all tagged SC so they're not orphans. I think I may be a moron and they all might only be half-canvassed.

I have a very cool Gieves & Hawkes unfinished bespoke DB navy pinstripe blazer... The sleeves are cut for surgeon's cuffs but haven't been finished, so there's no button holes or buttons. It's a 42L and the unfinished sleeves are 26" now.

Let me know if anyone wants pics

This is too long

Looking to trade gray suit for gray suit. If it were a short, it would be perfect, even with the pleats, but alas, it is not. Anyone have anything?

Since spring is right around the corner, I desperately need to replace my "Stays Cool" Joseph Bank seersucker suit with something decent. If anyone sees something a few leaps up from JosBank in a suit or SC in blue or another tasteful color (38-40 S), I will pay you or trade you or whatever.

I'd actually be willing to pay good money for something like this, so help me out.

A couple Hickey Freeman shirts (available)


16.5 - 35 nice white shirt


17-35 staple blue

A Comme des Garcons navy blazer (available)... pretty small... I'm guessing a 36? I don't know much about this brand, can someone fill me in?





Found a couple Hickey Freeman suits (available)... first a Walter Morton (another brand from HF with the same make / quality) 3 piece suit, marked a 42 but feels like around a 39-40 and pretty nice











Also found another one of those 46's with the super 120's, this one a 46XLG









Picked up a pair of HS Trask Bison leather loafers size 10M... fit me okay, but available





A soporific XL Brooks Brothers



A Highlands made in Scotland wool scarf in a colorful tartan (available)

I've got some very nice loafers in my sig, at least if you like the structured approach the english take to loafers. And I've had 'em up for a while, so if you make me a reasonable offer (or offer trade value, 7D, 36S), they're yours.
