can I get some more info on this logo? It saw prosum somewhere on it small
Old label, usually leave these stuff behind, but if it fits you well thats what really matter. Would not usually pick it up to flip though

Hit one spot today and had some great snags. Left behind one Oxxford suit because it was too far gone at full price...mayyybeee on half off day. All but the mocs and RL shirts are available.

Minty AE Park Avenues in a 10 1/2 E



These fit me better than almost any shirt I've ever tried on. I've honestly never seen a small custom fit, but the fact that the arms are as long as they are for a small gives me hope.

Nice PA, they always do well and with some shine they should clean up nice. Bad ass RLPL!!

This if from a Marshalls excursion. Navy pin stripe PRL blue label
suit. Did not cop, but it is red clearanced @ $170 or $180. I tried the
coat and it oozed Italian dreaminess. Wish it was my size. I think
the label is Caruso, right?

Cap, I’ve noticed a lot of Penn State shirts/caps/fan stuff in my neck
of the woods. A lot of people seemed to have jumped off the
Penn state wagon. I wonder why...

Brian: check your email. May have a suit possibility.

Get well soon Eazy.
As others have said, go buy that suit and double your money quick. great price!!!!

FYI, didnt see an email/PM? I assume Brian is me

Oh, also: Passed on Varvatos USA (made in China) black flat fronts (something I need, though the rise was kinda short and it crawled up my ... Continental Divide) at TJ Maxx today for $40. 2 prs, my size (38 x 32) Mistake?
If they are a perfect fit and you love them then buy the, but I went to Marshalls and Nords rack today and there was a ton of Varvatos USA stuff. Really want the "John Varvatos" black label (made in Italy) mainline stff.

Also hit up 2 thrifts here in San Diego, NADA

Hopefully back to OC before I leave for the east coast. On a positive note, did finally sell the New Aldens from a few weeks ago

I have one of these in same size that I picked up at the rack when I needed a black dress shirt. It's too small for me these days. Do you want it?
Old. Pass.

*edit* I passed on a 38S brooks brother 100% cashmere navy with gold button blazer tonight. $16. Let me know if you want a proxy, I'll be headed past that store again tomorrow morning.
sorry I already have a black dress shirt and don't really see the need for multiple, how does this brand do on the bay I am curious?

I got it for myself because it fit really nicely I was just wondering for the future if I saw that particular logo to know if it was flippable

Would not buy to flip. I believe it's just a Nordstrom house brand with a fancier name.

huh it said it was from neiman marcus on the tag and it had the burberry prosum knight? I looked it up and it said before 1999 burberry was called "burberrys"

Are we talking about the same thing? I could be totally wrong. That was just the assumption I made after finding those shirts only at nordstrom rack and not finding information on the brand elsewhere. Regardless, I wouldn't buy them to flip.

350x469px-LL-da963004_IMG_0162.jpeg
okay now for the good stuff...
lorenzo uomo shirt for myself it is rare I can find a shirt with long enough sleeves and this one is nice especially with the slight cutaway collar and french cuffs

 I outgrew my last suit so I needed a new one for a thing called youth in government I am joining. I ended up with the burberry prosum blazer and serched desperatly for the pants but couldn't find them, the jacket was only 7 bucks because it had a small rip in it that I have now repaired. the picture make it look really wierd...

cool pattern

can I get some more info on this logo? It saw prosum somewhere on it small

also this is the wierdest thing that has happened to me thrifting I found a five dollar bill in this wierd third pocket it had

okay now to what is possibly my greatest thrift find ever if someone can verify if it is real, I got it for 5 dollars!



I will post more pics if you want me to show you something specific to help me figure out if it is genuine


I can already almost guarantee you that's fake. Not just because of the unlikelihood either. Please post some more pics, though. Use the flower mode if your camera has that option.

No, your right. Every time I'm at the Rack, they have tons of those shirts on sale. However I think he thought you were talking about the Burberry blazer.

Might as well post my thrift pick-ups from tonight. I've never been so disappointed to find nice things. I can't stop myself from buying, my spare bedroom is overflowing, I'm moving in a month and have no where to put the stuff I can't unload before then :confused:

AE Walton. 10C


RLPL long sleeve polo/pullover thing


Ebay credits. The cashier remarked how awesome he thought the embroidery in the cuff was and that he would start looking for these :facepalm:


Seriously awesome plaid Woolrich shirt, Gant "The Rugger" long sleeve polo
