Introduce yourself.

[grambosaurus]

I'm Grambosaurus, new to SF (buddy of mine recommended it).
I'm large (6'5", 240) and looking to move from law school to the professional world, so I'm looking for everything from suits and shirts to belts, shoes, and ties. Like nearly everyone else, I'm on a pretty strict budget, so finding 46L/XL garments I can afford with student loans sounds tricky, to say the least.

Hello Styleforum,
I'm Albert, my family has been merchandising men's clothing for ever (since 1909,so I'm heritage but fortunately I'm personally not quite that old) Great to read about what is new and exciting. Cheers

Hi All,

I go by the name of Vtwinguy and sell on eBay by that name also except with a small "v". If you guessed Vtwinguy as having anything to do with a Harley-Davidson V-Twin engine, you would be absolutely right. I have gotten rid of the Harley and now ride a BMW bike similar to what you see the cops riding. I try to make a motorcycle trip for a week every August I am a humble shirt flipper but have also known to look for a good deal on Allen Edmonds, Bruno Magli or Alden shoe as well. I know there are a lot of other things I should be looking for while in a Goodwill and want to learn much more.

I'm getting close to retirement and would like to make thrifting and flipping a second source of income. I live in the Portland, Oregon area and spend a lot of time in Goodwill and SA stores in my spare time. I'm probably not as snappy a dresser as most of the people on this forum. I'm usually happy in jeans and a T shirt unless going out.

I came upon this forum somewhat by accident trying to determine the value of a pair of Alden Norwegian split toe bluchers and was amazed to find people talking about the stuff I have spent the better part of 5 years learning.

Thanks for any input you may have to offer!

[Laurentius]

Hi from Finland! I'm Laurentius - or Larry - and mainly a lurker and have been reading sites like styleforum during all the boring sales and other internal company meetings I need to attend. I'm 43 and being inspired from American Psycho I grabbed a lot of Brooks Brothers and Johston & Murphy when visiting the states in mid-90's and ever since that's been my style. I would love to be like Jack Nicholson in Chinatown, a Madmen, James Bond or any main character from a F. Scott Fitzgerald novel. Wines, watches and ice-hockey are also close to my heart.

Hi everyone,

Lurked here before, now in need of some help with my clothes for my up coming wedding

 

[fdbowie]

Hi everyone! I'm fdbowie and I think I have a problem.
Just joined after lurking for several months and being directed to the sales forum from stevesmith (after my first clothing transaction on ebay).

In the past month I started frequenting thrift stores and have a few scores, including a Brooks Brothers tux of recent vintage for $10. WTF do I need a tuxedo for? I now find myself looking for opportunities to wear my "new" tux, although this has proven to be quite difficult in Cleveland. Another thing, after all your talk about Alden and AE, I did some research and visited a high-end mens shoe store to see what shell cordovan leather was like. I'm now in the process of selling the idea to my wife, and I think she is caving!

Do you think I have a problem? I was quite content with my clothing before stumbling across this site...
