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

[LaundryRoom]

And for personal…

I’ve been bad at posting the last few months due to house shopping while couch surfing during a crazy sellers market. We wound up finding a spot and are settling in, and now I’m getting started clawing through the backlog I was throwing into a storage unit. There might be a couple things posted in here I’ve already posted.

Polo for the fuckin win man that things badass

Looks like Chester Barrie to me. I had some old T&A tailoring with a similar label.

The style is a "British Warm" btw, often private purchase for officers and worn after service similar to a trench coat etc.

thanks man! I appreciate any and all help. It was a cool item and a decent deal, so I took it. Surprised at the condition too, figured it looked pretty vintage but outside of a few small wear marks like I pictured, it’s pretty solid.

A few more recent finds:

This Vintage Mont Blanc was pretty cool. Doesn't want to retract all the way, but still pretty cool find.

These Vintage Florsheim boots I couldn't pass up. I really love vintage Florsheim stuff for whatever reason.

Finding vintage t-shirts around my area is not common at all, but I did find a few pretty cool San Francisco 49ers tees recently. 2 of which are new with tags. First one is a Champion from the 90s, second is a GTS from the 90s, and the last one is a Nutmeg Mills from the 90s.

And yet another Zegna, this time a selvedge. This one looks pretty cool IMO.

Yeah weirdly this thrift knew they had something special so it was on display behind the counter, for $12.

That Mont Blanc, might just have the wrong ink cartridge in it, or it's not seated properly, if it otherwise goes in and out without issue.

Don't be alarmed, just bloom on these boots. Vibram soles, made in Switzerland.

Some wear to these, but didn't want to leave them.

Nothing available at the moment.

Mostly cashmere aside from the Peter Scott in the back and the beige alpaca sweater.

The vintage tuxedo fits me prettty well, so I think it's a keeper.

Lots of handwork throughout:

Pants have no side tabs nor belt loops, but a really neat method of cinching the waist inside the waistband:

Women's coats:

More womenswear:

Empresa leather jacket. I didn't know the brand, but it was so nice I didn't want to leave it. High retail of €1,000+, but no idea whether they actually sell them for that price.

Stone Island reflective jeans, rough shape.

Fake, but I liked the huge embroidered front:

Old and in really rough shape, but pretty cool:

Stuff for my kids:
