@noob in 89 @sashae the Reagan Bush '84 is a frat boy thing.

Dammit. At least it's ironic though, right?

 

[TheNeedMachine]

Who was asking about those "ugly" Versace barocco shirts?

 

[txwoodworker]

Y U NO XL?!

Killer scores mang. Glad to have you back.

Haha, I zoomed into the size tag as soon as I saw it too.

This thing is kinda gnarly.. Loro Piana 100% silk swim trunks that look like they might be a sample.


That 1930's-1940's USN issued peacoat. This thing is pretty ridiculous.

All kinds of winning!


Not a lot today, mostly fodder that I'm not going to bother posting. Couple interesting items:
Michael Kors Lamb leather, really beautiful - women's

Park Aves 10.5D

Billy XL s/s polo

RL Denim & Supplyflannel with a cool pattern

Tailor Vintage nwt patch madras

Whelp, I was so stoked to find this one, eager both to detourn a bit of the old evil iconography and to give a shout-out to Alex P. Keaton all in one go, but alas...it's already just a ****** mass-market hipster frat bro thing. Oh well. Still good for the beach.

 

[Takai]

Are Frank and Eileen shirts a thing?

 

[txwoodworker]

Are Frank and Eileen shirts a thing?

Yes, they're all women's even the ones buttoned like men's. They're "boyfriend shirts" That's why you find them in the men's at thrift shops.

Well boo. At least I kopped the Etro shirt next to it as well.

Kanye's standup act leaves something to be desired.

[capnwes]

So, yesterday @capnwes came to visit me and we did the 8 hour thrift-a-thon, partially interrupted by a pitcher of sangria. A great day all around. We had pretty solid attacks on our stores, I don't think a stone was left unturned. Anyway, below is my half of the haul, Wes will post his half, teased below, once he gets back home.

That is easily more quality outerwear than I will see all season down here.

 

[PantherPatrol]

Vintage Wilderness Experience Klettersack pickup! They're re-making these in Japan...

 

[Nataku]

That thing looks mint. Probably from 1983-1986 judging from the black label.

Yeah, when I was in Tokyo a few years ago I saw the repros. That stuff is hot over there. They are reproducing Banana Equipment as well.
