[Shanejosephxxx]



its days like this that make me proud and want to get back in the field immediately.

I said to my girlfriend today how much great stuff is popping up in the thread. Went out to a spot immediately!

Actually a Toronto thrifter found a whole bunch of NWT TF, and other high end brands at a good will. I think he said that Harry Rosen donated a bunch of their items.

Yeah, that was me. About a year ago, though.

 

[Van Veen]

Man, me too. This is why you don't let a backlog pile up.

Result?

Result?

Polo seersucker sportcoat, Polo/corn sportcoat and a really awesome brookstweed in the rarely seen 39R so it fits me like a glove. I'll get a few pics up tomorrow

Welp, @Nataku, that outta pay for part of the trip at least. INSANE.

Those records, too. I dream of a haul like that.

Trying to pay the thrift gods forward a bit here,

Spoiler: Free Zegna cotton/cash inside, along with more deets

THIS HAS BEEN CLAIMED. Thanks everyone!

Was putting away my winter stuff tonight for the season and realized this will never fit me despite my attempts at saving it. It's a Zegna wool/cotton/modal/cashmere sweatshirt that's been tumble dried and shrunk. It was a size Large, but it fits more like a medium. Free to a good home. Measurements below.

Pit to pit in front: 21"
Arm length on outside from shoulder seam: 23"
Shoulders: 19"
Length: 25"

Best part? Free airfare and rental car. Worst part? Flying with a toddler is a PITA.

Yeah, I've been finding a ton of 80's stuff lately, which is cool and sells well. This stuff is what I'm into though, so it's great to find stuff that I can put into my personal collection.

Free babysitting too (grandparents?) while thrifts are pillaged? That would be even better.

Seriously, though, awesome. I'm going to be heading to a different part of the country here in a month or so (think @Fuecoland). I'm hoping to find a Tom Ford snap T while there.

You got it!

While you guys were out poppin' tags, I took my new Akorn grill on its maiden 'cue voyage (which was my first doing low and slow cooking). Pulled pork turned out great ... at 9:30. I'll start earlier next time.

Fuel for tomorrow's thrift run, I guess.

See! I said people needed to keep talking more Tom Ford talk and we'd benefit! That's a sweet score.
I hit up one store last night and left pretty happy. Not Tom Ford happy, but I'll take it.

D&G x2, RLPL, Kiton, RG, Toscano, Lacoste, Bugatchi, ibex x2, James Perse x2, Burberry, J Press, Boss, Charles Tyrwhitt, Corneliani, PRL (by Corneliani, no?), EZ 15 mil (no other tags, fake?), mani tux, Stefano ricci for Battaglia, Ferragamo dog tie, etc.
Finally thrifted a pair of Alden. Next stop, Edward Green! (Pleaaaassse?)...

Nice looking que! Gotta love the Kamados. It is strange, though... Whenever I think of grilling, the only thing that comes to mind is... **** WENDY!!!

@SpooPoker

Congrats on going full time!

Cheers!

Yes, that PRL is by Corneliani. Beautiful pattern.
