@GMMcL you're gonna wish you hadn't lost the weight

As much as I need a new white dress shirt for my mannequin shots, I might actually try to sell this one.

Sell that and put some no name on the mannequin!

Can I get an assist on this skin ID?

 

[My Main Man]

Mostly from a quick lunchstop and a quick post-work stop today.

3 meh-but-i'll-cop-for-$0.70 LPs at a place that usually only has weird christian music.
Some NWT Diesel slim fit shorts for me. I hate shorts, but these actually look weirdly okay on me. I might actually wear them for more than just mowing the lawn or whatever.


Some ties
Far left: vintage Armani velvet tie - let me know if anyone wants this. Couldn't leave it.
Vintage neats for me. PRL x2 and Talbott for local old joint (these are NA)


Breuer, recent Zegna (small spot on front), T&A, Talbott BOC, Talbott Estate, Ferragamo, Barbera, Ted Baker, BBGF (all available)


NOS Minnesota Yacht Club t-shirt from 1986. Tagged medium but fits small. Really thought this was going to work for me. So bummed that I'm not like 3 inches shorter and about 20 lbs lighter. Available unless my wife wants it.


NA because I'm going to see if I can get a bunch of money for this. Just bein' honest.




2x skeety as hell PS Paul Smith with some collar/cuff staining. Slim Medium. Giving them the treatment right now. Both available.





I need some help with these last two. (both available)

First one is tagged Casino Royale. Was cheap and I liked the pattern. It's a slim medium and is too short for me. I can find literally 0 online about this. Made in Turkey and seems relatively nice, but I'm wondering if it's like some KMart/Kohls house brand or something and I got duped.


River Junction Trade Co. Tagged M, but fits bigger. Company from Iowa that makes 1800s style clothing.....possibly for civil war re-enactments? I have no idea. I'll let everyone make up their own mind about whether it's cool or nerdy.

Sell that and put some no name on the mannequin!

Or just find a nice shirt that's too busted to sell. I use an Isaia that had a huge hole in the elbow and a couple small stains on the back that I found for $0.99.

 

[Fueco]

Sometimes I wish I owned a record player!

 

[drlivingston]

TBS merged with Time Warner in 95 or 96... the last Clash was in 96 or 97. I can't remember anything. It was nothing but a perpetual vodka haze back then. Anyway, the t-shirt is about 20 years old I would estimate.

 

[MartiniGirl]

Hell, I'd be stoked to find anything Attolini

Seconded! Attolini is one of the few names on my list that I need to find. And some of you find it like it's Brooks Brothers

Looking at you Spoo...

To add to the list...

New York, New York / Tristate (seriously, most of the surrounding "towns" are bigger than some of the cities lower on this list)
Harrisburg, PA - Eh, I guess. Not that major though....(and not where my best thrifting is either)
Baltimore MD, may be a better choice...about equidistant. (and still not where my best thrifting is)
Wichita, Kansas -- population 350,000 nearest major City either Kansas City or Oklahoma City.
Chi-town
Austin
Nashville, TN
Indianapolis, IN
Seattle, WA
Portland, OR
Dallas/Fort Worth, TX
Denver, CO
Minneapolis, Minn.
Cincinnati, OH
Santa Barbara, CA
Phoenix, AZ
Boston, MA
San Francisco and entire Bay Area -- aren't there several of you peoples?
Birmingham, AL
Kansas City, MO
Palm Beach/Greater Miami area
Louisville, KY
Cleveland, OH
Columbus, OH (Ohio is now dunzo. (Dayton isn't a real city.))
Toledo, OH (NOW Ohio is dunzo. But agree on Dayton)
Colorado Springs, CO

Firstly a big shout to my doppleganger for consigning some super sweet recent Isaia, and to @Orgetorix for finding, buying, and selling to me. Just have to get the pants hemmed, otherwise dead on. If I didn't already have that third one, I would snag that too.
Decent stuff:

BB ancient madder, BB prescription glasses

JV suit on half off day at an already cheap place, $8ish

ethrift came in, my pic was about as good as the sellers pic.
awesome sky blue chinolino my size

Shipley & Halmos, JV, APC, APC

A great EZ that was also half off, was hoping I'd like the fit (my size) but no go, awesome colors.

Great Gitman vintage, again hoping it would fit, nope.

2 super minty and one ok Brioni


Almost everyone in my training this week thought they were 2" taller
than they actually were, and bought their pants accordingly. Tried to catch a pic of 4 in a row. So bizarre.

 

[Mr G from SD]

Member rhz5001 and his eBay store Hand Picked Threads deserves a public shout out.

I sent an offer for a suit he was selling. He sells it to me for less than my offer and includes 2 free ties.

One word: Awesome!

[BarrelsWifey]

Second day of my thriftucation. Barrel seems pretty excited that I'm going with him to the stores. Saw some good stuff, Canali, Zegna, Santorelli, Rag and Bone, but left them behind because they were too damaged. Not that excited over what I did buy to be honest, the styles are very out of date.

This Canali is okay. 3 button, unvented, slacks are single pleat, cuffed leg. Barrel said this look is dated.



Brought home these Ferragamo shoes too. Apologies for posting womenswear!
