Razor Blade?

Don't think they're razor blades -- look more like M frame to me.

M frames have a more squared off side though, don’t they?

I suppose it could be an M Frame Sweep. I didn’t realize there were so many compatible lenses.

Nice Loubs. All those need is a little refreshing and they're good to go:

@txwoodworker you can also get it repainted for the whole sole

I’d only send it to a trusted cobbler though

That sausage roll was so good though

Made a trade this week. Gave up a personal grail, my 1940's Browns Beach coat, which was a bit roached, for a haul that I am satisfied with. Got the BBC out of bins 5 or 6 years ago, have posted it here before, here is a pic of it. Collar trashed, something ate top of a pocket, bottom snap missing a piece.

Here is what I got back. This first piece also has some issues, some staining and frayed cuffs on sleeves, but I liked the overall patina it gave to the jacket.

Also this early RRL trucker that fits me great.

Vintage Polo denim shirt.

Vintage Polo Sport Sportsman cashmere flannel. Shirt appears to be deadstock, and is incredibly soft.

Vintage Pendleton board shirt.

And rounding out the first half of the trade haul, a pair of LVC 1967 505-0217 Big E selvedge jeans.

I lied, a couple other things. 1980's Vuarnet t's, there were three of them, sold one to a friend and kept these two for myself. Made USA and single stitch.

Part 2 of the swap, this is classic menswear. The kid I traded with does a lot of cleanouts but could care less about this type of stuff. he brought bags of stuff and let me cherrypick what I wanted. He had some 1930's or 40's Palm Beach suits, but they were in really rough shape so I passed on them. Another Palm Beach he had was a rayon sharkskin, not quite as bad shape as others, I might try to get it in another deal.

First up is a Zegna suit.

Spoiler: Zegna

Vintage Lee Kee Hong Kong wingtips, size info worn off, but 11-13 range is my guess.

Spoiler: Lee Kee

He had a big bag of ties, grabbed these.

Also had a bag of belts. Grabbed 2 Smathers and Branson belts, and an Alligator Belt from a high end store in New Orleans. Only have pics of one of the belts.

Last was this Ferragamo scarf.

There is a bit more, one of the bags ended up in my storage, it has the belts and some other things that I can't remember. Monetarily I definitely came out ahead, but he got the best and rarest piece, so we both ended up happy.

Been coming across a decent amount lately. This piece is definitely the favorite.
