Brian would you be interested in this 36R tails tux? No name brand, I think it was “After 6”. I know, I know it’s not an S. Pants nowhere to be found. Did not cop.

Canali SC. This fits me but bwn is not my color. Needs dry cleaning.

That's ironic... Just came on here to post a Cifonelli one of these I found... In grey nailhead... Up there on my weirdest finds.

Also a D'Avenza suit... Didn't even know they branded stuff...

Completely odd and awesome three piece. Summer weight half lined. Can't tell what the material is, but it is a hopsack like loose weave, linenish, silkish. The union tag dates it between 1948 and 1962. Picked it up for easye, hopefully he likes it. Close to a 38 I think.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

I love it!!!!!

Should go well with your suede spectators. Fully canvassed, lots of handiwork, a gift from me. PM address.

Found the nicest Southwick I've come across so far. Cream herringbone 3/2 SC with 1 working button per cuff(this is odd) and horn buttons. Soft as hell. Also, AVAILABLE.

Shoulder to shoulder: 18". Pit to pit: 21". Sleeves: 23.5" with around 2" to let out. Length from BOC: 30"

Band & Olufsen Beocenter 7000. Purchased from original owner. Rosewood stand. Beovox S 50 Speakers. B&O MMC 20 E cartridge in excellent shape. The whole thing is mint. Came with the original remote! Everything made in Denmark.

Super recent Isaia shirts (17, Eu 43). Claimed


I talked to the manager (a really cool guy) about the shirts who checked to see if there were any more in back. There wasn't.
I guess another guy bought some NWT (from Neiman Marcus, so probably easy to spot for the average person) ones either earlier today or yesterday and inquired about them as well. Wonder what I missed....

Quoting as these were some of my best finds lately and I think they may have gotten overlooked.

A big thanks to Nataku for shipping a Coach briefcase my way! It's awesome and will be put to use starting on Monday. I had to recondition the leather and it will need a second coat to even it out, but it should look like new.

Love it. I passed a very similar coat, about same size, today only in Harris tweed by Yale coop. Some of them were made by Southwick, too. May go back when half price and if still there.

That system is really, really disgusting.

+1 How old is it again? That looks spotless!

I just wish it fit me!

Passed on a pair of old Floyd and Haig shoes that looked like these but in black

If anyone is interested they were a 10 C and the uppers were in pretty good condition but the soles were pretty worn. They were $30

Folks, Before YoungAmerican or someone else get on my case, it seems I timed this wrong. The tag is really '48 to '62 but the store D'Camm opened in 64. Pitfalls of timing through union tags. It appears some tailors kept on using whatever tags they had on hand until they ran out of them. D'Camm is still functioning and selling good stuff I'm told. I'll visit to check for sure.

Polo Ralph Lauren tan cotton sports coat in medium. Pristine like new condition measures to about a 38, has working cuffs and 2 roll 3



AE fifth ave in black size 11E, a couple of tiny cuts on the outsole of one but wearable. I can let them go cheap if interested


AE Burton 10D, very good condition has had a half re-sole


Very interesting pair of Wright Arch Preservers that look nearly new size 10.5 C


Polo Ralph Lauren Orange quilted vest with brown suede shoulders....awesome but....3XL....dammit

 

[HansderHund]

I thought I'd pass this along as it's too big for me, but it's a nice looking PRL made in Italy jacket. Check the measurements because it seems a bit small for a 44. Not bad at $20...
