    Official Thrifter's Trading Post

    I have 2 BB sport coats for trade. They were thrifted with tags and I had them altered to my specs and just picked them up but I have lost some weight and my body shape has changed some. I have been doing less weight work and more cardio and am now more a 38-40 and these wear slightly larger...

    Here is a very nice pair of Alden Cap Toes for trade. Cordovan in color and I am pretty sure they are shell but I am not 100% sure. Excellent shape with minimal wear on soles and some scuffs that can likely be buffed out. Plastic trees are included!!!!! 12 B/D I am looking for a pair of...

    Things that you know are "inferior" but still prefer

    Dansko Professionals. They look terrible IMO but I find myself wearing them a couple days a week and I even have more than one pair. On my feet all day and never ache at the end with Dansko's. LB

    Can a Rolex Submariner (no manouche) be worn as a beater watch?

    I have a Sea-Dweller and GMT Master and wear them both in any situation with no fear of damage. This has been the case for many years and when I get ready to hand them over to my kids in a few years, I'll have them serviced and polished and they will look like new so they can abuse them further...

    Hey Nataku, I grabbed it on my way home from work. Just got home, but I'll post pictures here in a little bit. It's a great jacket - very nice fabric. Let me know what you think when I post the photos. Also, for everyone else's benefit, my measurements are: Jacket: 38/40 R/S Waist: 34 Inseam...

    Ike Behar Dress Shirts

    Overpriced at retail. Huge in the waist - nice cloth. I thrifted a few and had my tailor take in the sleeves and sides and now they are quite nice but there are much better quality shirts at full retail ($165 last time I saw them in a store).

    Zanella Pants

    I really like Zanella pants and lean to the Bennett (double reverse pleat standard cut I would say comparable to Incotex for Zegna cut wise) or Benny (same as above FF). I have several pair all from eBay and I am cheap and work in hospitals so buy used ones and have them dry cleaned on arrival...

    The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

    Slim pickings here in Northern New England for the most part and I had pretty much given up and took a couple months off and just in the last 2 weeks had some down time and stopped by a few Goodwill's/SA's. Nothing like Rabbits find but I'll take it - I don't flip anything and only buy my size...

    The Definitive Guide to Slim Fit Shirts

    Any feedback on the Nordstrom Tailor Fit line? I saw these at Nordstrom Rack, but didn't bother to try them on. I just thrifted one the other day and would say they are about as slim as BB slim fit but with higher arm holes. This one is "smartcare" and I must say the fabric is fantastic for a...
