I'm voting for: that's the god damned coolest sweater I've ever seen. Except for the fact that it isn't. But that's besides the point. Enjoy your turkey today boys. An go COWBOYS!!!
Yeah, sorry. I can't get behind it either. Sorry, dude.
This describes my family.

Dig, you da bomb. Happy turkey day all arount Edit: also, my fam is red sox pats vs yanks giants, so I feel you. My issue is who to root against in this game. Not a fan of either. Sorry.
On f*cking Long Island for the holiday to see fam. Will be back to normal thrifitng action Saturday.
Apologies in advance to Spoo, but I'd rather commit hari kari. So sorry bro. Then again, you're well prepared: after all, you live in Jersey. Ok, that was 2x rude. Muse be the scotch. Sorry, dudes!
The number of CT/NY thrifters on this board, no wonder I don't find anything :fence: [COLOR=FF00AA]Happy Turkey day.[/COLOR]
Yeah, nfs. Mofos need to get off my mothertrucking lawn.
Happy thanksgiving everyone. We of all people have LOTS to be thankful for.
+1000000 Enjoy the day dudes! Here's my tday fit. Whitebalance off jacket is beige with rust and navy micro houndstooth. Also, add a madder square. Pretty sure the consensus will be I should have gone gray flannel trou and suede shoes. But I was told that was too formal for a family gathering. So this is what we've got.

I think it got missed in the earlier discussion...so though probably quite a few of you guys are like meh....since
I'm a vintage head and really appreciate one offs, this to me is truly an amazing find. It is all hand painted, obviously
by some one with great talent. It does have a couple patches, beat up, but still amazing in my book.
Posting pics in full for those who missed it.


This is so damn ugly but I can't seems to keep my eyes off of it just like a butherface with a round booty!

Great outfit. Your pants may be an inch too short, but you can get away with that at this point. (If you were well into middle age like, ahem, the statute of limitations would have already expired for that.) Looks good!

Found these two items last night at a local thrift/cosignment store. Hugo Boss Blazer and Etro shirt. Both in great condition. Keepers for me...Shirt has a strange cloverleaf pattern but will probably work with a rocker look. I am an ex professional musician. Total Cost $60. Local Goodwills had nothing...Same store had a $1500 Paul Smith Suit with tags still on it for $300 but it was a regular and I am a short. Wanted that suit..

Happy Thanksgiving everyone. Out of a lot of things I am thankful for (wonderful wife and family, good health, etc), I'm very thankful for this amazing community of like-minded individuals to help remind me I'm not alone in this crazy hobby that is thrifting.

Good lord, E, that is a kickass look! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.


Thanks Randy. My grandfather was here when I showed up, and he said "that's what we used to dress like in the 40's" , :crackup:
