Haven’t hit the thrifts since quarantine. Thanks @flipstah for the care package!

Hi all,

I've lurked this thread for many hundreds of pages and was inspired to go out for my first thrift today in a small town in northern England. I've no idea if I did well, but I paid £14 for these 4 jackets in total so it can't be too bad! Does the Kenzo look real? I've looked at a few jackets from them online and haven't seen one with this label.

Also passed up on plenty of Ted Baker jackets and a Paul Smith suit, may have to go back tomorrow.

Welcome!

I’d say well done on the Kenzo. It’s more recent and DB is desireable. Similarly the Aquascrotum jacket looks like an unlined cotton jacket which is pretty safe. The Boss and Hackett look like orphaned suit jackets so probably not a great pick up, but hey if you’re just starting out get em all on eBay and start learning the ropes!
