The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

nah you're just off to the normal start. everyone goes through their Dior Monsieur phase, even (i believe) DM7.

 

[JackFlash]

Not a promising start, it seems.

In the beginning it helps to be conservative. Only take home slam dunks. When you learn more you can take home more.

Model name is "Sandra" Maybe that's a clue?

I missed the original post. Are you looking for the manufacturer?
Is there another tag with a CA number?
Since it's Made in Canada you could plug that CA number into this database:

Now that Hickey Freeman owner HartMax is bankrupt, and the suitors are groups that previously bought brands and moved production abroad, should we start stocking up made in USA hickey freemans in case they go up in value?
GMMcl didn't you work for HartMax at one point?

Already am hording!

It's raining HF over here!

Nope. GFT. During the JA, Val, Calvin and Armani (et al.) days.

That's absurd. You Canadians are way too polite to make fun of us. And scared eager for us to lose abandon our remaining industry protectionism.

FTFY

Then a red/green/blue checked Burberry London OCBD. Size L, made in USA.

Hey, that Burberry London available?

From 1/10/12 - Oh how time flies!

Went on a thrift store binge today:

Dior button down shirt
Ralph Lauren Purple Label Button Down
2 Gant Button Downs
2 Polo Ralph Lauren Made in USA Polos
2 Le Tigre Made in USA Polos
2 Levis shirts

Spent $30 in total. How did I do?

I had actually never thought of selling thrift finds on here, I was just buying for myself. It's become a fun hobby, and I seem to have enough clothes for myself. I may begin looking for things to sell. Is there anything in high demand that I should look out for?

Makes me feel better. So that's 9 months, so by July next year I should be using Kiton as a dishrag, right?

Just a couple old, interesting things I picked up today. Pretty sure the Versaysee is authentic, just old.

Spoosignal.com



















Issey Miyake Men. From a long since forgotten collection. Reminiscent of CdG in the mid 80s.

1 button overcoat/cardigan/blazer. I saw the "Made in Japan" tag first and figured it had to be someone like IM.







Also found two bespoke (guessing around 17 or 17 1/2) Ascot Chang shirts (monogrammed, but in great shape), PRL wool blazer with brass buttons (no tag, but close to a 36R), and an EZ tuxedo shirt (15). Pics upon request.

Hmm...you're in CT. More like J Press shaggy dog sweaters and Andover Shop poplin shirts.

You guys ever hear of the brand Uğur Balkuv? Seems to be a Turkish knitwear company, but couldn't find much about it...
