Wow, thanks, I think you are correct and can't believe I missed that. The H sure looks like Hartman and the m makes sense, although I have never seen this exact logo and Google Lens came up empty.I think that's Hartmann, isn't it?
I've smoked myself stupid on my own supply. I also love outerwear and probably have 50-75 pieces.Hey y’all! A bit behind on photos, so none of that, but missing the conversation so I’m gonna get an oldie but goodie going to see how folks opinions may have changed as the market has.
So I’ve been at this thrifting thing for a bit now, and I’m no expert at any of it, but really enjoying myself, even when times are lean on finds/sales.
Given that this is my main source of income, if it fits it sits doesn’t really work as a size 40. That said, I’ve found a lot of stuff that I’m keeping for now. I guess one thing of note is that as a deliberate thrifter and reseller, my wardrobe has changed a lot. I’ve sold a lot of my personal clothes that could see a good return, and replaced them with thrifted versions. I’m most drawn to outerwear. At this point I have thrifted about 11 jackets that are in the stay pile. I’ve probably sold 7 or 8 with more on the docket.
I don’t ever keep NWT stuff, or haven’t yet, because of the proportional increase in return on most items I buy. Items with some damage or something a bit off are even easier to rationalize haha. But like I was saying when there’s so much new stuff incoming, my closet and my inventory have merged. There may well be yet items I never get rid of, and I too dream of well worn items, patina that shows as much age as I do, but we’ll see.
As a result of all this in and out, so to speak, my style has become much more fluid. I buy what I think will sell well, and then from that wear whatever I really dig. I think that’s a very cool and unexpected aspect of it.
So I’ve shared my guilty pleasure, my current total (11 pieces of outerwear) and some of my rationale. So my questions to you who use this as a primary income source are:
where do you stand on gettin high on your own supply? What makes up your rationale? How disciplined are you about this stuff? How fluid is the personal stock when times are lean? And lastly what’s your guilty pleasure? How many pleasures do you have to show for it?
