Pretty sure this is Jack Victor. Right?! Right?! Right...

Was that JWN label I see? Need to check a JV suit for his label, can't remember...

Yes, John W. Nordstrom line.

Hmmm. Never thought to read the RN/CA numbers as I expected them to indicate Nordstrom. Noob mistake at 3 a.m.

Zooming in on my original but still grainy photo (SCs are at home), the blue one is indeed Jack Victor (RN58565) but despite nearly identical tag format, the camel one seems to indicate someone else. CA00025 Vermont Clothing, Montreal or CA00026 S.F.I. Apparel, SAINT-LÉONARD, QC? I can't make out the black one but it's probably JV again. I'll check again when I get home but I'd say it's safe to assume all were manufactured by Jack Victor.
Thanks @barrelntrigger !

How'd you figure that? History with JWN line or by tag recognition? And C-S stands for Court-Short (Court being French translation of short).

Bought, seems legit.

Sneakers be sneaking. I have no knowledge but figured these might be good pickups at 25?




Anyone got tips for reupholstery on the cheap? $50 and $30 sound good to me. And we need some furniture.

Not familiar with the colorway on the right, but the left is one of the more coveted models and colorways if real.

They're the Jordan '6 rings' model. One shoe encompassing the models of each of the 6 shoes he won a ring in. Not very desirable, tbh. But yes, of both, the left is the most 'desirable' colorway as it resembles the Jordan 11 Black/Red.

Gold/Silver people: Drove my boss to the airport so I hit a store on the way back to work. Found a Southwick blazer with gold monogrammed buttons. Flipped them ever and I believe they are stamped LS, which I think means liquid silver. Why are they gold colored then? If I bring these to a jewelry store, will they be able to tell me what they are?

Also found this no name vintage tweed 3 piece. Didn't try it on or measure yet, but I'd guess it's a 36ish. It seemed pretty tiny:

Fuuuuck, what size are those?

they were 9.5M.
