Thanks for the reply @jkidd41011 . I’m certain they are legit and are the “Cough Drop” foamposite. Tags are marked 2010.

Besides brand, it's all about the cut. For the most part, they better be slim cut, 2 button, flat front pants, either single or double vented.
If you have baggy 3 button, double breasted, pleated, cuffed, ventless... They're not very desirable, no matter the brand.
And as others have said, classic menswear isn't doing that great right now... What with everyone working from home, no parties to attend, etc.
Hopefully they go back to the classic's. Not going back to the crap that they let FOGXZEGNA,mettalica. bullshit garbage.It's an excellent time to stock up for your own collection, however. Inevitably things will change again, and I'm guessing people will look to the classics for inspiration.
Which is to say, I have my ties and I'm keeping them!
Not familiar with the Lenco although they look really nice and still have the box. I am familiar with the AKG’s and those are very solid. There is one particular model in this line that is very highly regarded. Should be able to find it with a quick search.
@HansderHund When is this going to kick off?
JUST A REMINDER...

I paid up for these and they were an e-thrift, but I've been after something similar. Great color and fit well. Crockett & Jones Coniston:

Sorry, forgot to say thanks for the help! I still haven't tested them, so I have no idea whether they're good to go or not!
These Tricker's are so nice!
@HansderHund: Odd Burberry's trench. Gun flap but no cuff buckles. Is the belt with it?
I have two pairs of Conistons, one for BB, the other for BB Black Fleece. Both are my most worn boots in the fall/winter. I absolutely love them. And Chrysalis, Hans! One of my absolute favorite brands.
They are! That’s definitely an older stamp and believe they came from the Tricker’s store in Vienna. I once asked them when it closed, and they werent
Good eye! Yes, the belt is with it, but the previous owner removed the buckles on the cuffs and didn’t do the cleanest job unfortunately. It’s women’s but an odd color I haven’t seen. All cotton with a 95/5 wool/camel li
They’re great boots and I didn’t know they made them for BBBF. They’re in pretty good condition and the seller added a new pair of shearling insoles.
Those Chrysalis are really nice, I’m sure you get a ton of use from yours! It’s the second I’ve found this year, neither were my size. This is 80/20 wool/alpaca in navy, but I prefer the tweed version from earlier this year.
