I think I recognize that location, pretty sure that one is way OTP for you.Makes me want to set foot in an Atlanta goodwill for the first time in a very long time.
The jacket dates somewhere between 1945 and 1959 and probably later in that range based on the styling.Harris Tweed Sport Coat
Based upon what I can tell from the Harris and Bay Labels, this piece should date no more recent than early 1960s. Any opinions based on it style, cut etc. if this is more inline with late 1950s? Also what would you call this pattern... I want to call it parquet?

Edit: ****...not as OTP as I thought, about 2 minutes from my house...
Slippers are fine. It's the showing of toes that is hatedAlso lot of haters out here for the house slippers. House slippers are awesome, no shame
Nice haul! Although its close to me, I really have stopped going to that store since its generally picked over. Also, since I don't normally look at classic menswear any longer, I would have missed all that stuff anyway. Well done!yeah sandy springs, exit 5 on 400. First time going in there in over year since I lost the thrifting itch for a while. Nice little welcome back surprise haha

He must have seen another guy who looks like you did that the day before. Don't bother things like that. Just be yourself.I apologize if this is lengthy but I was completely shocked when a manager of a store that’s across from my house, approached me when I was just browsing and said “I know what you did yesterday. I saw what you did”. I was completely shocked and just asked him “what are you talking about”. He just says , “I saw you leave with more things in your reusable shopping bag than you came in with”. None of you guys know me too personally but I am basically saying that I would be sworn in on the bible or whatever method if it proved I didn’t do anything wrong. Integrity and honesty is really important to me and that’s why this bothers me so much. He basically walked up with wild accusation with his proof being him verbally saying “I saw it on the video”. I asked him if I can see that video that he claims proves I stole something and he said “I can’t do that.” He didn’t even ban me from the store but claimed that the “next time I shop here or if I want to come back to that particular store, I have to use a shopping cart at all times and leave any shopping bag at the front of the store under the employee’s supervision”. I just feel like if I ever step in that store again, I’m going to be watched like a hawk and like some kind of criminal when I didn’t do a thing.

Stand your ground and demand an apology even if you gotta call a district manager.

@GoldenHarvestMedal @impuntura @Fueco Thats exactly what I did guys. I wasn’t just going to sit there and take that bullshit. So to clarify, I was in the store yesterday (Monday) and popped in today on Tuesday and that’s when I was approached and accused of stealing on the Monday. I was even asked why I would bring a bag of Value Village items from another store into this particular store. Clearly they don’t even know their own exchange policy that there’s no credit or anything. You have to exchange the item for another item with equal value or lesser value and pay the difference.
