The Official Thrift / Discount Store Bragging Thread Part III (Sept 2018-)

[rokor]

Here’s a thrift fit that’s a bit different from what I usually wear; probably the first time I wore blue jeans out in a few years. Alden PTBs would be on instead if I ever get lucky enough to find them in my size.

And some e thrifts from over the winter

Can someone please help id this brand? That's the only logo or marking on the pants. Thanks in advance ?

i'm definitely no expert... but are they made in USA or somewhere like Turkey? if USA, then you are on the right track.

on a side note, i should wear my original late 60s type 3 trucker more... but what a pointless jacket. no hand warmer pockets, no interior pockets. I NEED POCKETS!

Thanks @flipstah @Centaurus3200 not sure about country of origin but pretty sure it’s USA or Japan

Could be Japan. LVC stores in big cities.

Can you show any care tags?

That’s all there is inside and reverse side is blank. Thanks Vader

Anyone want to weigh in? 129 tho.

Obviously fake: The adidas logos are upside down.

Edit to actually try and help... does the boost feel real? If the shoe fits I’ve learned that fakes are usually not as comfortable as the real deal. Quality control on this sort of shoe is pretty iffy at best so I take most authenticity guides guidance as splitting hairs. I have pairs bought straight from adidas that would fail random authenticity guides.
The stitching arc on inside doesn’t match up, the stitching around the pull tab is a bit wonky, but...
TLDR: nothing jumps out at me as fake on those but that doesn’t mean they aren’t just a good UA pair. If they were my size and comfy I’d rock them, no ***** given.

Hmm. Tough call. Something seems off about them but it may just be the lighting - Oxford tan colorway? Even without that without the box they look pretty beat for at 130 if they're not for personal.
Edit/ Legit check on them - https://legitcheck.app/guides/adida...turtle-dove-pirate-black-oxford-tan-moonrock/

Thanks for the tip. I wouldn't have asked but the guy I know at the store said it was part of a high end donation. Was probably going to pass unless someone here really wanted them at 130

 

[carreragt7]

Well what size were they? Haha
