Just two shirt finds today. Thomas Pink usually isn't bragworthy but this was my size, super recent, slim fit and with a cutaway collar. Win all around. I'm guessing the T&A is from the same guy. Both are like new.



No no! Pink is bragworthy, after finding this vintage piece of amazingness I finally understand. (All of the below is available

16.5-34












Oxxford Clothes 17-35








Hamilton Custom 16.5-33







Skeet Wash Cloth



Badass Orvis Tweed Pants 42x31+














Badass Orvis Khaki 43x31+









x2 Faconnable Khaki Pants 42x31+
Deadboy, I think you were onto something with Incotex and the loop, I know other people have them on their pants but it appears to be their signature; these look like Incotex















Incotex?

For me.








Oh yeah, and this mystery. I passed on two incredibly terrible orphans, St. Andrews and Cantarelli, but they grey with thick purple stripes.

But this was smashed in between them. Most likely an orphan but seems fashion forward enough, multicolor buttons, and pockets that could say otherwise, the color is what throws this off. Some help would be appreciated!

Ida know. A blissful utopia where we can all get dirt cheap Kiton and similar quality? I'll give up the beer money on the side if it means I can dress like Spoo every day of the week on my budget.


I dont spend as much as you think.

I want to know how you find .000001% income $30 per garbage bag rummage sales, i'm assuming they dont advertise on craigslist. Do you have a rolodex full of 1%ers who send you gilded invitations?

Does anyone wear big boy pants...literally?? (Size 40-42)

I'm around a 42... More a 43. Find something fun?

Left. So. Much. Today. I was proud of myself. Because after all, I'm not thrifting right now, just selling, right?

All I came home with-



Available for an interesting trade.
Showing it here in more of a 3/2 mode, though it may naturally just be a 3 button, which would narrow up the lapels some.

Few things today:

Hey SW&D guys, are these what I've seen referred to as 'j-pants'? They're made by a highly regarded Canadian designer called Philip Sparks, and I'm pretty sure they're waxed cotton.

About a 34/34 and available... although I'm warning you you'll need fairly small calves to fit into them (felt like it was starting to cut off the circulation to my feet when I tried them on)


Pretty awesome Alan Paine lambswool sweater, size 44. Available.


And for me, NWT Gant Rugger thick cotton/wool shirt, not thrifted but 70% off. Gonna love this when the weather finally gets colder.

Funny, I left behind Incotex today, and I grabbed what I thought was a second pair (had the buckle loop), only to find that they were Facconable. We should discuss those finds of yours, lemme look them over.

Yeah, it is really interesting. All of the tags matched my Incotex for Zegna. The Faconnable are also made in Romania. I didn't think that Incotex made for Faconnable. Any insight would be appreciated...

Pretty sure that is Giorgio Armani black label. Only maker I've seen with that "Made in Italy" label.
