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

[RFHansen]

Check out this stunner I just picked up! Reunited all three pieces. No price on any of them, got it up to the register and the cashier asked if $12 was a fair price. 😝 And it’s dual vented! View attachment 2195777 I’m guessing late 70s early 80s, back when Chaps was still incredible and carried in Barney’s.

Looks amazing, and it almost fits you. Handsome cut on jacket and pants. The jacket looks quite long, and in a good way.

BTW, I had you in mind when I left behind some beat up Rick Owens sneakers at a flea market last weekend. Don't worry, they weren't worth the asking price.

Thanks broski! Yeah the sleeves could be let down like 1/4-1/2" and the pants are a smidge too tight, but all the more to cut back on the booze to get ready for hot boyz summer. I probably wont bother with the sleeves, but I can def shed a pound or two haha. Funny because I just listed a VTG Polo plaid 3 piece today that was in my collection but never quite fit. One in, one out as they say.

Naww, I'm not cool enough.

If they’re available please let me know.

Haven't seen this maker in a long while and I snagged 2x pairs:

Need some work and conditioning but the underlying leather is still nice.

Estate sale? My eyes go to these ones first, though that first one is probably a 1960's Don Draper type sport coat with a weird green lining and tiny lapels. That big light gray plaid overcoat is interesting, as well as the Pendletony red one and probably cotton 5 Brother flannel Blue shirt, but maybe its a wool or wool nylon blend.

You’re so good dude haha. Red is heavy western field Montgomery ward. Nailed the cotton 5 brother.

This is actually a buddy of mines attic. He went through a crazy thrifting phase about a decade ago, and is letting go of his lanolin-lubricated dreams of opening a store. These are the keepers.

Need to do a whole lot of reconciliation and remediation (moths), and juggling space/avoiding cross contamination with my clean wools. Any recommendations for how to accomplish this at scale?

@double00 I know you enjoy a good ceramic.
Two Arnold Wiigs designs from Norway ,might keep these I have a good spot for them .

 

[vandelay74]

Nice skyliner!

Crockett and Jones based on "Benchmade in England" on the inside sides of the shoes if it is handwritten it is definitely CJ

My daughter found an identical pair, only women's, on Poshmark. And it does show handwritten size/style. So that makes these as made by Crockett & Johnson?

Could land a Cessna on those satin lapels. Gotta see what that thing is.
