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

[Centaurus3200]

Wow! Are they stupid? Even if you don't know anything, you can "feel" quality... And then there's these miniature computers that everyone carries in their pocket. It's connected to this thing called "the internet".

Walked into the crossroads trading on Melrose and found this on the women’s new arrival rack. When I went to pay the cashier goes, “I love this jacket! Imagine how much it would be if it was a name brand.” Hahahaha


Fairly certain it’s horsehide, custom order with studs and wool blend liner. NWT. Thank you to whoever took $15 for this at Crossroads.

Amazing.and it's a men's right ?

yup. I couldn’t believe it. Apparently the guy brought it in with a bunch of dope Vivienne Westwood stuff, but it was all super high pricing.

I like what they're doing. More finds for thrifters

Just check the 13 digit serial number to see if they are different .its not complicated .that's literally all you have to do.

Pardon my sneaker ignorance. But, does that rule just apply to Adidas?

i have only experience with this with Adidas,its the number with the letters/numbers combo not the all numeric one.

Started new job in Memphis and haven’t been on here in a while. I have to go to California for work and training this week. Going to be in San Jose for four days. Any great places I should check out. I’m looking for Christmas gifts so nice consignment shop is OK too. P.m. me if anybody knows anything

After the last couple weeks in this thread, I feel like a card player who mistakenly sat down at the high roller table... In any case, a few recent finds:

Linen sc by lesser known London bespoke shop.

Stella is actually from a while back and tag suggests it's a prototype/sample.

Never heard of this brand but NWT and the Barney's tag convinced me that it was a safe buy. Unstructured Boglioli kind of vibe.

Thought this navy Corny would make a nice staple suit. Fabric super tag was a nice surprise.

Anyone attending a state dinner anytime soon?

This a thing? I recall recent talk of vintage Arrow shirts. Guess this falls under military also. Early 60’s?

This is always fun to find. Freshly dry cleaned 3 years ago and in your size.

I sell one and keep one, win win.

Can I get a legit check on this Versace Jeans Couture silk(?) blouson/varsity jacket? The garbage zipper and the lack of content/size tags give me pause but the clean embroidery and older brand tag look good to me so who knows?

Spoiler: Lots o pics

No size tag but probably a Large.
