The official thrift/discount store bragging thread - Part II (May 2015 - Sept. 2018)

Anybody ever found a vintage Eddie Bauer Coat/Trench/Rain with Removable down Liner?

I found a very ordinary black rain coat and almost ignored it. But, then I saw the label said Down. It turns out it is an Eddie Bauer. The down liner is removable. I have learned from researching that Eddie Bauer patented the first Goose Down Jacket.

I'm trying to figure out how old thing is, but google has not been much help.

Haven't posted finds in a while. Was hit with some unplanned, rather serious expenses recently, so these are N/A unless you see something you can't live without.

Mint Bean Boots







Sweet patina on these, but the shell is cracked

.







The one (out of five) ties from the Barney's Warehouse sale that was worth keeping.











PRL Cookie patch. Not all that valuable but pretty sure this is unworn.









Paul & Shark

Couldn't leave this badass (and cheap) overcoat.









J Press Presstige 3/2 green overcheck tweed













PRL USA DB Peak Lapel houndstooth suit











These are all from yesterday -












RLPL x 2





Edward Sexton MTM (made in USA tags?) chalk stripe flannel suit. Gorge is pretty low / pants are cut very full but this thing is NICE.













Probably my best find of the fall - 80's (?) Schott Perfecto. Some issues with the lining, but otherwise in great condition. This thing is amazing.

If I didn't just have expenses of my own, this would be mine. One of the few I've seen that are an L and would fit me >_<

Just discovered the rain coat is a Lord Forecaster (?) with Eddie Bauer zip out liner. It had to have been to go with this coat, the liner fits perfectly.

These Made in USA Polo suits are fantastic quality and decidedly more stylish than anything coming out of the RL house today. I wear mine frequently, along with a plethora of vintage sport coats. Were it my size, I'd persuade you to part with it....

Just wanted to give a shout out to Jompso for another awesome trade. The guy is knowledgable and generous. Thanks.

I say tux...smoking jacket usually longer and maybe belted...but I'd include the term smoking jacket if I were putting it on ebay. And brocade.
