@Fueco any recommendations for newbie shoes? Going to be starting up bouldering next month as a hobby.

I’ve had good luck with multiple brands (Five Ten, La Sportiva and Butora are my current choices). The most important thing is how the shoe fits your foot. You want them tight, but not painful (TWSS). The rubber from all the major brands is essentially the same (AWSS).

Absolutely terrible news and tragedy. Apparently his 13 year old daughter was on board too with another parent and player from his daughter’s team.

I was thrifting when I found out and my mood was wrecked.

I found two pairs of Bausch and Lomb Ray Bans and a Alligator Trafalgar belt.

Nothing earth shattering but some stuff for personal use.

I never pick up JAB...but when it’s a nwot in your size with no need for alterations in a heavyweight material for $12.99...why not.

Almost didn’t go out yesterday.

the Burb is NWT and full suit, Faconable is full suit, Eyesayuh, cashmere blend overcoat with great collar, and B-3 Bomber XXXL (real leather, faux shearling) figures it was worth it for $10.

That's a new maker label from Faconnable for me. I wonder how many makers they've used over the years. There's sooo many, from Caruso to Canterelli to rando Italian labels to now the maker of Brooks Brothers' Canadian-made garments.

@Nataku
Those brunello look questionable. The stamping on the tags doesn't look right as it's not the right font. Could be the picture. That and I noticed the lion of saint mark back leg.

Both had price tags from a well known men's shop, so I'm not too concerned. The labels look good compared to the legit ones I have.

Two of these which I’ve determined are vintage wine totes for picnics etc. Interestingly one has a Lord’s Cricket Club link.

You're right, couldn't place it in my head. Still wild how many factories they've used over the years.

I didn’t know they’ve used so many. Explains a lot though, the stuff I’ve found from them has been alllll over the place. Some of it is not so great, and some of it is really good. Like this calf skin nubuck (?) blouson I found a year ago,I wear itat least once a week.
