And we also stumbled upon these: Prada loafers, unmarked but size 10ish. The boy has been asking me how he can make some spare change so I had committed to him that I'd front him on an item.
The loafers exhibit some wear but for the money I though that they would be the perfect thing to let him try his hand at the game. At the very least there's some brand whore out there who'd want those white buckles peaking out from his hems.

A store going out of business in my town was then putting all brands at -60%. Since I leave in a country where no one seems to care about nice shoes. I thought there wouldn't be too many people and arrived at the opening, at 09:30 AM. My bad, there were 40 guys in front of me...

I got what I could and am already quite fortunate

John Lobb 1140€ 456€, it does make a difference





Crockett & Jones Handgrade 495€ 195€






Crockett & Jones monk 370€ 145€





Needless to say, that made my day, my week and my month!

Left all this stuff. Will post the good stuff later.

For Spoo....


Never ever seen this BB label before...almost looked fake. Jacket had only one inside pocket (left breast) which reminded me of a girls jacket. Was super weird in the fact it was double breasted but had holes and buttons on both sides like it was almost suppose to be left open (no button inside to close the inner part). If this is super super old I can always go back but they wanted $20 for it.




Just didnt want to drop $30 on this suit, very nice though.




Some lining issues that needed a quick tailor and $20






PS - Got the new iphone hence why I have decent pictures from the store now!

Thanks for the info. What're the tells on it?
It was super cheap so no problem taking the hit on it, though still a disappointment.
Plus, it's your son taking the hit, not you. Right? Live and learn, Junior!

No one has claimed this jacket yet. Perfect for early fall. Just want to see someone get some use out of it. Yours for shipping cost.


I'd do it of you could shrink it down to a true 40 first.

Ok guys I had My 1st good day in awhile, all dress shirts and all are keepers.
Hilditch & Key Bespoke, 2 T&As, a recent ish Burberry, Pal Zileri ( anybody know the retail on these? google was of on use) and a few Pinks. All had dry cleaner tags on so I'm assuming from the same guy that never picked up his shirts. Pics once I get home.

Couldn't tell you retail but I thrifted one in my size and it's fast becoming one of my favourite shirts. Great quality (though I wouldn't want to spend $175 on one).

Found 2 pairs of True Religion jeans today, never sure if it's the real thing maybe that's why I'm the sucker that bought them

They'll tell you. Include a picture of the serial number on the back of the small horseshoe tag hidden behind the size tag in the waistband.

I will say that that bottom left picture looks very suspect to me. I've also only seen the buddha printed on the inside pockets, not the horseshoe, like in your top right pic, but who knows.
