The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[IRKSM]

Don't spend $200 on shoes if you can't afford it.

I can but I shouldn't

also am getting rid of my shoes sizes 11.5 to 12 I have some doc martens and some loafers but not really anything I think you guys would be into (I send a lot of them to tben

)

They also have a nice additional discount...butttt it doesn't work on shoes.

Extra 30% off:
Enter the Promotion Code GIVING and PIN skdsdfhjs

Hey, I don't care about hockey! Can I still tell you about the **** I found?

I can't figure out whether DM7 is in LA or New England or, god help us, both. Either way, someone left a few things in LA for us smalltimers. Nothing earth-shattering; everything available unless otherwise noted. And a blanket apology for the crappy pix.

Buncha ties:

Polo, Brooks wool (keeping), Polo, Giorgio Armani, Zegna

Matching Robert Talbott 7-folds, recent

An Arnys and a Brioni with whaever you call the thing on the tail end of the tie that buttons to your shirt.

Black 1" Cortina Trafalgar belt, marked 40:

Super lightweight cotton/viscose navy Prada trousers, marked 52 with a shortish inseam:

Dooney & Bourke braces:

Shooz:

Bally loafers, EU 8.5:

Ferragamo Oxfords in great shape, marked 9 but measure like a 9.5:

Johnston & Murphy loafers in 9.5D - 99% sure these are shell cordovan:

And finally, stuff I probably should have passed on but didn't:

Old-label LL Bean wool ... let's call it a shacket? Tagged medium, fits me like a 40R

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Steeple Gate - would you call these spectators? No idea on the brand, but made in Italy and possibly some kind of exotic leather and kind of awesome. Snakeskin, I take it? I'm extran00bish on this stuff. 9.5. Checkout lady described them as "super-cute."

I'd call them full brogue spectators -- certainly unusual two-tone in the brown. Used to white instead of light brown. Good snag!

I'm convinced nobody actually cares about hockey, it just gives them something to talk about since their football teams suck.

Arny's is very cool! They're out of biz now, so collectors will be scooping them up.

Don't think I've seen anything that old from LL Bean. Pretty cool. Those shoes, though...

I don't know, I think Spoo would totally rock them. Actually, I think I might be able to pull them off... PM sent! YOLO, right?

Hey gents, if you are looking for a beater blazer that has a modern fit, check this bad boy out!

http://canvas.landsend.com/pp/mens-boiled-wool-blazer~245807_-1.html

Thinking about coping one. If you are a stickler on fit, like me, call up their customer service and ask for measurements. It turns out I normally fit a 40 but I have to size up to a 42.

Cheers!

Basically compact, shrunken, compressed wool, sometimes mixed with other fabric.

They have some good stuff
