[JamesJohn]

Well, after all these years, my first pair of big E. Right on the end of a fresh rack. TWSS.

Are you sure those aren’t “Levi’s premium line”. They have been putting the big E on all their lines and they are not LVC or true vintage”. That leather patch looks wrong IMO.

Quite possibly. I don't know squat about denim, but have been looking for a pair with a big E ever since joining this forum and reading about them. Had no idea they were on anything other than the good stuff. LOL. Pretty funny if the first one was a bust . . . a little knowledge is a dangerous thing . . .

Post the care tags if you can.

It is the good stuff. Be there are tiers in the "good stuff" as well

They look to be one of the repro lines, but still worth picking up. The look of the denim on true vintage is unmistakable.

I leave those as they’re the recent ones

@F-4C Yeah I know the ebay seller you’re referring to. He actually unblocked me at some point, so I was able to snag this A&S (Drakes) tie that he must’ve accidentally set as BIN. Fair play to him, he sent it to me, and with free postage, and it was in perfect condition.

I’ve just checked, he’s unblocked me too.

Pretty weird tbh! Same as most places! Haven’t been in a charity shop since March. Where I live most aren’t taking by donations anyway. I’ve kept an eye on eBay instead and just flipped this jacket yesterday within a couple of hours of listing. That always makes me wonder whether I should have priced it higher! It was a 50” chest with 24” arms so I made it affordable!

Time to fill your boots with cheap ties of wildly varying condition!

Vintage handmade J&M gators for personal, $40 with trees.

Thanks @SpooPoker for the expert opinion on these.

Some afternoon comedy. Just had this Karen proceed to slander and leave curse word comments on my profile just because I said this is not an authentic Burberry scarf. Sad part is someone already bought it for $135. If this is real then I’d eat my own shirt but this is tasteless and has all signs of Chinese fake

As real as a stripper's compliment.

Some cool stuff.

Pretty sure these are 21 oz, but some turkey cut the inside label out...
