You have giant hands

 

[PGRoadhouse]

A couple shirts that didn't make the 20 pic cutoff last post:

50s/60s rayon and what appears to be a homemade linen shirt with an indigo floral print.

Might as well have the best merino undershirt 6.99 can buy:

unworn/unwashed when I found it, now in the regular cold weather rotation.

As are these vintage woolrich trousers

Heavy heavy tweed herringbone and flannel lined khakis, both miusa

Orange tab goodness. The brown jeans are being used in a project and will likely become shorts.

The perfect pair of 90s blue jeans and NOS 550 jorts.

Vintage fatigues (in various fits and fabrics) have become my go to pants lately.

All wildly cheap, 3 'nam era (I think) and one more recent european camo cargo set.

Shoes

My second and third pair of alden shell (black & #8), with a pre featured belt.

I swear I find decent suede shoes with the same (vanishingly low) frequency as shell.

Nearly new Zegnas feat. every keyword, and beautiful C&J's for Polo. Might fit me with an insole...

High and low bean boots for myself, feeling like a real New Englander finally.

And last but not least these absolute stunners:

R Martegani for Cuzzens deep navy lizard tassel loafers.

Best part? Unworn (and my size).

Finally, my first ever guess the maker:

Buckle up, we ain't finished yet.

@PGRoadhouse guessing rrl on the shorts

 

[PGRoadhouse]

Tailoring / outerwear

Some decent & recent BB fodder, unstructured in summer fabrics.

A very cheap womens linen overcoat from yet another (now defunct) RL sub line

Great details, made in Italy. Ticket pocket gave me false hope it was mens.

Huh, what a simple, unadorned jacket, wondering who the maker is...

Hmm switzerland? Stylized medusa heads? We may never piece it together.

Oh right its Zegna for Versace. @SpooPoker any thoughts on age?

And a pop on Lanvin tailoring, I feel like its rare for a 'fashion house' blazer to enamor me, but..

This thing absolutely rules. Speckly tweed, patch pkts, throat latch, and subtle design quirks

I can't pin down the maker however... anybody?

Reunited my second crepe silk tuxedo from Armani this year. This one fits like a glove.

Some folks might bash the notch lapel 3 button tux, but some folks are dullards.

And then there's this absolute behemoth. I saw that collar from afar and knew I had something.

$20 out the door, easily the heaviest jacket I've ever held.

Apparently the precursor to every wealthy foreign exchange students favorite parka

Except this one is less likely to get you mugged based of branding alone.

Snow mantra indeed. In pretty amazing shape for a ~30 year old jacket.

And a plea for the thread: tell me this is a thing!

Unlined pinstriped cotton Starter jacket in a hooded parka style

Made in the states. I have found zero comps so perhaps a sample of some kind? Rear view:

Please return your seat to the upright position, I will be taking a short coffee break before taking us into a controlled dive through ties, bags, and varied other accessories.

@JohnAAG no dice, you need to go further east.

@JohnAAG no dice, you need to go further east.

Blue blue japan?

Hmmm ... Beams?

Sunglass guys

Maui Jim Lani sunglasses for $30
Good overall condition

I know retail is $300, but unsure of resell

Any direction would be greatly appreciated

Versace is probably 94/95 or so.

@PGRoadhouse, that Lanvin is Mabro, I believe.

 

[PGRoadhouse]

Various accessories (and a few more pairs of pents)
Fatigued yet? Can't help myself. Ripstop bdu cargos.

Zipper needs to be replaced but for 3.99 come on.

The good kind of chaps. Some ebay crusing leather daddy will be very pleased with these.

Pop! on Johnson, here's hoping a jacket shows up someday.

A NWT PRL doublesided crepe silk scarf (houndstooth/floral). Approx. 1/1000000th% as cool as that silk cowboy scarf that was posted recently. Seriously I'd trade my eyeteeth for that thing.

2X Jean lafont frames. Not 100% sure these have great resale but for a buck each I'll give it a shot.

Ties have been dry lately, but these were old, cheap, and mint.

Anybody have experience with neckwear of this vintage? Not sure how to list them.

Two cash/silk Etro scarves, found a week apart in different corners of the state. Green is sold.

The gray one, well, that's a keeper. 1900 sq inches of awesome. <1/2 a cent per square inch is fair

There was discussion recently of Hermes v Pendleton blankets. I'll go with the latter every time.

I mean, my name doesn't start with an H so that mongram would make no sense.

Pop on Orvis Battenkill (NWT). Mens journal collab dopp in canvas and leather.

A minty TNF messenger bag from the Antarctica Expedition series, fairly sought after stuff.

Perfect color for the amateur mountaineer in need of rescue

Actually an awesome bag, would keep if I needed it like at all.

And pop! on Briggs & Riley. Nifty garment bag/attache hybrid in gray ballistic nylon.

Four dollars for a lifetime warrantee? Yes please.

And to wrap things up with some dudely energy, here's what I've been living in lately:

A Belgian made terry cloth robe. Fits like a second skin, groovy striping is just a bonus.

Ta for now, see you tonight.

 

[PGRoadhouse]

@MJMcRibb awesome thank you m'bro! I knew it was one of the serious manufacturers but I havent handled much Mabro.

 

[PGRoadhouse]

@SpooPoker excellent, thanks. Fits me fine but I imagine pre death gives a decent bay boost. Have you watched The Assassination of Gianni Versace (second season of the American Crime Story series)? Pretty amazing, although I wish they delved into the man himself a bit more. Worth watching for the random Aimee Mann cameo/musical number alone, imo.

Also, no one has guessed the maker of the shorts yet. You're getting closer!
