Nevermind the bad pics, no digital camera right now other than on cell phone.

Any idea on this brand Bernard Zins? Why does the price tag say $495?

Pants are fully lined, and made of cashmere / wool blend.

Kopped two pairs though, NWT SZ 40, but cost me $35 per pair. Hope I did not make a horrible mistake.

Another consignment home run for the Spoo and balearic1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Somebody said fake and Spoo helped in authenticating. I had not worn it yet and  asked him to consign for me and this was the result:


'twas close to being "lost". I love that tie. Its enjoying its new owners neck right now in Tokyo, IIRC.

^^^ LOL!  That's awesome.  Spoo seems to be everywhere.  My wife was talking about some orange Chloe pants she won on eBay.  When she showed me, it turned out they were from Spoo.

Here's the Filson shooz, size 11D (available). I put a coat of Obenauf's LP on there to even up some of the scuffs







scuffs on the right side, but otherwise good condition










A couple ties... Another Madras for my collection. Anyone heard of "Pen West, a division of Pendleton"? I've seen a lot of Pendleton, but not this one.





And a first for me... Hermes! Found a spot on it when I got it home.. Do you guys usually get them dry cleaned or try to spot clean yourself?





Also picked up these 3 standard (2 pleats) Zanellas... 2 are marked 36 and one marked 34, but all measure out the same to about 36.5" waist. 2 are 32" inseam and the other is 33", all with a 1.5" pleat. Available and cheap if someone wants all 3.

Phew .. had to get out of work early today as I'm back in the office all night. Much to my surprise I had a nice quick visit to the store nearby.


So you say you're a 42R? And you have been needing the moast awesome Orvis Summer jacket? Soft Shoulders / Linen / Cotton? Center Vent.
This thing was so close to fitting me but I just couldnt quite make it work. Available to someone on the cheap just so it can get some wear.


22.5 Chest
25 Sleeve
19 Shoulder
31.25 Bot Collar to Hem
50% Linen
50% Cotton





Also picked up a pair of NWOT Bonobos - These things are great and remind me of the Kiton pants I passed up at Marshalls. Should make for great golf pants (side note: stop putting cuffs on flat fronts >,<) Jury on these?



Sick marlin shirt I can wear whilst deep sea fishing the Gulf Stream this weekend :D



Beautiful Allen Edmonds Lexington 10.5E - Available

I picked up a jacket for my brother a few months ago that had this label. It's pretty nice, actually. That's about all I know of it, tho.

I love my Bonobos. The cut is the best thing about them. They fit really well and are very flattering. I'll take those off your hands if they're available

I'd brag about my finds but I'm a few beers in tonight and frankly all the stuff is still sitting in my car. Long story short...grensons, flat front Zanellas, Incotex, Etro & broini shirts and Oxford and ez sport coats. Beer and SF is a dangerous thing. Pray for me to keep out of he B&S.

CALLING ALL WEEKEND WARRIORS!!

Are you an accountant that needs an escape? Are you a doctor that feels unappreciated and needs an outlet to feel like a badass?

Have you been unsatisfied with your motorcycle gear? Are you tired of wearing the same generic Harley pants?

Maybe you just want your pants to match your kicks.

Are you a size 33x30ish?

This is your chance to UPGRADE TO UNICORNS
