Highlights from shirt stack yesterday. I couldn't help myself and took the skeet with it too; about 30 shirts in total. Most were Robert Talbott but had good patterns and recent, so I grabbed them too. Some Billy Reid, Vince, and Theory..

@Penny_pants delivered me a snickers bar while I was waiting for other things to come out! What a bro!

I wish these were shell cordovan and in my size, alas they are 10.5D and merely leather but in great condition, true thrift.

Also, on the subject of electronics, I copped this yesterday. If you ever see one take a close look. This thing sounds awesome.

It packs 40 drivers and two 4.25" woofers into a 40 inch wide sound bar, connects to HDMI devices and an active subwoofer. Headphone level audio inputs to the front Aux 3 port; outputs HDMI video and audio from a MacBook or DVD. Original retail $1,800, a good deal at $24.95.

The man cave is sounding good these days!

 

[Mr. Moo]

Another e-thrift came in. 7%.

The translation I'm pretty sure is Lambskin so thumbs up to that. It was so soft I was worried it was polyester. It's a 2XL and it fits true/short. Harmont was probably for the same person size wise. Someone did a half assed job of hiding the jacket inside a huge puffer in the women's section. 2/3 of my finds are in the women's section lately, and most of those are men's. Same with the Canali long coat.

Gray Canali 1934 label with a big C is current. Before that it was Brown label with Silver text, before that it was Blue label with White text and before that it was Black label with White text.

It's not often that I have cause to post on this thread, though I do enjoy reading it. This seems worth a mention: a purple herringbone cashmere bespoke Gieves & Hawkes sport coat, in basically perfect condition, and the fit is uncannily good. It's certainly purple, but not so bright as to be unwearable (I hope).
