Yes on the Nike's Spoo. They're the Nike Flyknit Max. Fairly recent. Should be able to take some light soap/water to the upper, let them dry with some shoe trees; you're golden. http://sneakernews.com/2013/12/26/nike-air-max-flyknit-spring-2014-releases/
I have a few multicolor pairs myself, super comfortable. 

Would you know someone who, maybe, has expertise in sneaker cleaning that I could say, send to for a fee?

Spoo manages to pull off silk with tweed and more dress down fabrics, so he'd say you could do grenadine or even silk macclesfield or whatever. But he's a magician and I'm still not sure how he does it; I think it's some advanced version of mind control.

The irony is that NOT doing it is one of the first things he taught me.

Look, I did teach you that. And that is a rule. But as you are learning, once you know the rules, you get to **** around with them a bit. Im not saying its right, maybe its just sprezz.

I would be happy to Spoo, no fee necessary. I have some different cleaning methods I use that never fail me. Lmk

Anyone else having nightmares about bros coming to into thrifts and using a Kiton for a zombie costume?

Yep. I've feared this for a long time. Kiton cashmere suit getting cut up , shredded and having fake blood painted on because it's only a $10 Goodwill suit.

I know. Don't ruin my fun.

Ancient madder would be perfect.

Today's finds:

Canali Milano 4 Button Sport Coat

Levi's Shirt (keeping this, probably not worth anything anyways, but I like it)

Allen Edmonds 10.5 EE Harrison

Gorgeous Loro Piana Cashmere Blazer 38R. Probably gonna keep this unless somebody offers a bunch of cash because I've got an emotional attachment to it and it fits perfectly. Plus it has gorgeous buttons.

Also picked up a PRL polo and a gray corduroy jacket just because they were cheap and fit.

Anyone need a decent set of bookshelf speakers? If not, I'll probably part out the Altecs and keep the beautiful walnut cabinets

Loro Piana 100% cash
KEF C25
Altec Lansing 101

Today is my Anniversary. My wife and I were married 1 year ago today. We went to a gorgeous resort called Hacienda de los Santos in Alamos Sonorra Mexico. It was a 200 year old plantation that had been turned into a beautiful resort. It was very hot in Mexico in September and I wanted to wear Seersucker. My wife was all for it. The reason I mention all this is to post a thrift pic (at least semi thrift). I was wearing a MTM Seersucker Suit. The Rest: Brooks Brothers Shirt -- Thrifted $4 Brooks Brothers blue pindot tie -- Thrifted $2 Belt thrifted $2 Sky Blue OTC Pantharella Socks -- E-thrift $8 Allen Edmonds "Orleans" White Bucks Thrifted $10 It was so hot, I'm surprised I am not even more wrinkled.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

I can't remember if I posted this prior thrift pic or not. Its just a better view.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Very dashing!! Great thrift fit pic, and what a beautiful wife!! Congratulations!!

I guess I should have explained that I had no beef with the sentiment, but with the slur.
