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

[SpooPoker]

Are likes equating to "probably real"? @SpooPoker is that in your wheelhouse? I think it may be real now that I was able to look it over more, but I was not able to find this bag.

The inside keeps telling me fake though.
The strap and the way it's stiched with brand seems good though.

I cannot say as Ive never had a Montblanc bag brother.

I didn’t get out to the thrifts today, but I did get some Pliny The Younger on tap. So, cheers thriftbros.

Off to the tailor for surgery. Godspeed.

Finds from the week.

3x nwt Patagonia. Just some basics but can't say no.

The sweater on top is from a Japanese brand called sunsea. They sell it at dsm Japan but as far as I can tell they have absolutely no distribution in the US.

I was wearing the small burb nova check shirt from last month when I found the big check. Couldn't find the top half of the Gucci.

Pop on outerknown. If you asked me whether a fisherman sweater needs a knit kangaroo pocket I'd say it sounds stupid as hell but irl I kind of like it here. They mostly make wings and horns type cotton staples now but I think this is from a more lux era.

I had a Montblanc belt. it was real. quality was shite.
so i am guessing your bag is real.

Solid week, will be posting stuff soon but my highlight was this beautiful levenger briefcase.

very good condition and I love levenger stuff, always wanted one of their leathers. Happy find for $5.

@dad2bandm I have seen Mont Blanc belts that I left on multiple occasions because they looked ok at first but the quality didn’t seem great and the leather generally felt cheap. I think that’s the best way to tell a fake and lack of any serial numbers or markings. I also don’t know if Mont Blanc would make a bag that has the branding plastered so much all over it (from what I’ve seen). You had said that the interior didn’t really impress you as well, right?

@dad2bandm... I also don’t know if Mont Blanc would make a bag that has the branding plastered so much all over it (from what I’ve seen). You had said that the interior didn’t really impress you as well, right?

I saw some legit Montblanc bags (city bags) that have the same branded strap and logos so didn't know. I know too much branding is a red flag usually, but it seems they do have some bags with the same logo strap.

I was going to stop by Montblanc store today to look at legit in person, but my travel plans changed.

Thrift stop today...

Tombolini jacket. Was going to leave it, but it's my size and in color/pattern I don't have.
Naked & Famous SkinnyGuy...32. These would have fit me a couple years ago...no more though.

Saved rest of my money for the Paul & Shark sample sale at Harry Rosen outlet.

The all leather ones are desirable. Once I saw the comps from yours awhile back it's been on the radar. So took about 6 months.
