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

[impuntura]

Did not kop.

 

[Purplelabel]

Releae those toes, Frenchy.

1990 ish Spooner Kloth pullover. It pains me to refer to stuff as vintage that was new when I was in high school…

Wow, so sad to hear about @kbadgley84, one of the stalwarts of this thread for many years. I was fortunate enough to do a few trades with him over the years, super nice guy and really responsive. Always enjoyed his contributions to the hivemind knowledge base and great sense of humor. I'll be honored to contribute to the fund.

RIP Keith.

There's just something about shrunken neglected Board shirts.. I must help them out whenever I see them in need:

Was an L that looked like an S.

Now it's about an M.

 

[mistermidwester]

Although I don’t post as much as some, this has been my favorite online community for the past decade or more. I never interacted with him directly, but like everyone here, I learned a lot from @kbadgley84. RIP.

Mostly just eBay fodder recently but thought I’d share this beast. Sadly not mainline but vintage, lightweight rayon/wool blend, 4x1, huge lapels and is sick. 40R with 19.25” alpha shoulders. Would be a keeper but my @$$ is too big

 

[eazye]

Don’t feel bad guys. He would definitely still want us to be posting our finds. I went thrifting all day yesterday in his honor. Found a ton of good sh!t. I’ll be doing a mega post in a few days after I photograph everything. Cheers y’all, love you guys.

I may be mistaken, but I though Le Collezioni was one of Armani’s top tier lines at the time.

Damn, just scrolled up. RIP, one of the OGs

I always thought le collezioni was the outsourced big box retailer line. The black label has always been the one that was super desirable when I’m selling, even for vintage stuff. It did surprise me that this one had a bergdorf tag on it though.

Not my lucky week, except for ties.

Brooks Brothers with the price tag still on
Robert Talbott
Borrelli
Zegna
Borrelli

I hope I find some nice orange or green ties next, I still don't have any in these colors

in rl terms it would be similar to:

armani black label = rlpl
le collezioni = mii/better rl polo/blue label
emporio = mostly macy’s-level prl/more mall-brand adjacent

as with rl, there’s varying levels of quality in each line but this is basically it.

The shows goes on in memory of our fallen brother.
This week's best so far...

11ty:

'Nali:

Black Watch day, Oscar Jacobson:

This is by Pingvin, a vintage RTW brand from Sweden. Great quality, canvassed and with lots of pick stitching. Considering keeping it, except I need to have the sleeves lengthened – and I do have more than 'enough' sport coats:

'Nali:

It was 50% week in a tiny shop in the fancy part of town that already yielded the leather coat above, PS loafers, plus a handsome plum purple EZ sport coat for myself. First I grab the 11ty in image 1, a Tagliatore jacket, JC chinos and RM Williams jeans, then I look down and see 'Loro' in script inside these shoes. I was like, 'nah, really?'
Indeed. Going back today to see if they put out more good stuff:

NWOB Mr. Choo, paid up, but what the hell:

 

[flipstah]

Gotta replace these lenses
