Glad you liked it. Shopping for the guy who has everything was a challenge.

But that toy robot is not just any robot.

So, very late and horrible picture, but I cant wait anymore! Here's the thriftmasgift I recieved from @thebuddahman

club monaco and howies poloshirts, oliver spencer henley, topman sweater and a William Hunt longsleeve polo. I dont really wear shortsleeved polos or stripes, but the Hunt ls and the sweater is getting some wear! The Jacket is from a brand Ive never heard of before and my man buddah thought it wise to add an article about the brand, very interesting reading! The jacket is awesome and fits me perfectly, Ill give you a fitpic when its not freezing outside.
Thx alot man!

This year, I was lucky enough to have @1ofTheCoolKids as my Saint Thriftmas. And I couldn't be more Amazed with his kindness.
He sent this box 3 times!!! which would have cost so much. but he persisted. and i am grateful. a true scholar and gentleman of the thread.



This G-star work jacket. Absolutely love the details of it. The zipper, the cuffs, all of it. As far as modern stuff goes, G-star is darned good.
And this shirt from G-star, in a heavy cotton.


Really nice shirt.
He knows I love Timberland boots. So he hooked me up with these Timbs shoes.

He threw in a collection of some scarves for @MrsVader.

And, to step up and do something awesome?
This Mickey Mouse. From Fantasia. for @Lil' Vader

Fantastic box yet again this year. And I look forward to the next event.

also a very nice Dude. Thanks. love it.

An awesome surprise arrived today. It got caught in shipping limbo en route to the U.S., but it was worth the wait! Thanks @HansderHund
Big thanks to @HansderHund for a great Thriftmas surprise. Not only did he come through with an awesome, thoughtful bevy of gifts, but when the package got lost in the mail he spent a ton of time tracking it down and making sure it eventually reached me.


awesome floral shirt w/ mother of pearl buttons ... I could see this working equally well with Engineered Garments or Dries Van Noten:

really nice foulard tie, wearing it today:

love this:

assorted tasty treats and goodies ... they held up surprisingly well on their long journey to the States!
