What the serious fk man. What did you pay?

 

[Purplelabel]

I heard a local Cuci store is missing inventory.

Oh it was a thrift store but they were priced way the **** up (not by goodwill standards), but at $160 each I just took them and ran.

I think the buckle on those are sterling silver. I have a lizard one with exact buckle. The back part of it is where it’s engraved very small Sterling.

Anyone recognizes the maker?

Amazing find even at that price.
We are truly living in a world gone mad where that sweater retails for $4300. Amazing sweater for sure but luxury pricing has just become absurd. You have to wonder how high things like this can keep going. Even at today's pricing you could buy two or even three pairs of Edward Greens for what that sweater cost.

I noticed LP raising their white sole shoes significantly after the whole 'old money' trend came about. Also RL put raised their polo coat price by a grand too, getting silly now.

The crazy price is part of the attraction for the brand nowadays.

La Bourguignonne. Probably 1950s.
