No. I see these often.

This is the Baracuta you're looking for



Only without the Van Huesen and made in England

Incredible haul all around.....but this thing...^^^....pure awesome....never seen one like that before, and I don't think I would have the balls to wear it in public, but I love it......

That patch suit was one of the most amazing things I saw anyone post on here, I PM'd him right away curious about size, even though the chances of it fitting me are 1/1000. If it does, I will summon the courage to wear it out in public like a boss.

That's some heavily licensed version of the brand you're looking for. The only Baracuta I keep my eyes out for is the British made harrington, which is generally in some sort of light tan but can also be found in loden green, red, black, blackwatch, etc. Given that you're searching close enough to NYC, you might find some of the newer slim fit models eventually.

Stopped by a consignment shop today for the first time. Most items were priced too high to flip, but you could find some decent deals on things you planned to keep. Picked up a unique Brioni SC with badass buttons that I could keep or flip. The horse and text on the buttons are set behind a glass-like glaze. Will post another pic later.

Been looking for a cord jacket for a while, found this today, my size, soft shoulder, patch pockets, leather buttons. Pictures make it look like ****, but it's quite nice in person.

Popped two cherries today, Duchamp and Dunhill, I'm thinking I hate the Duchamp, also an old ass Ricci and a sweet lambswool knit Calvin Klein for myself.

Found one almost exactly like that at Goodwill, except it was 3B and was by J. Press. I passed on it, but is probably still there. It was a 42.

Sure is dry for good stuff in my neck of the woods. Aside from a couple of Burberry shirts and 2 Harris Tweeds all I found of worth is an old pair of Lee Rider Jeans... 1950's maybe? Cool buttonfly, selvedge, and not in terrible shape.

Up next some ties - 1st ever ETRO anything

Top Row: ETRO(Damage near tag in spoiler pictures), ETRO(this one is for sure UNavailable)
Middle: ETRO, Canali
Bottom: Paul Smith

















Another First for me:

Orvis Wool Jacket in great condition (Unavailable, fit me great, unless i get the just right offer heh):






And last, but certainly not least, ANOTHER first for me,

As always, let me know if there is anything you really like... even if I say unavailable, who knows maybe we can work something out.
