The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

Not the YSL you're looking for.

Actually not the Kiton either. But I have a buddy that collects those non-good Kiton label jackets, so if you want to send it to me, I'd happily do a proxy.

Here kitty, kitty.


Dat KASHMERE.



Is this the YSL I'm looking for?



How 'bout dat tweedy bird?




Vintage BB, yo!

'Rive Gauche' is what you're looking for. You'll know it when you see it because it will be on some crazy ass runway piece, not an old tie.

Huh? I thought "Pour homme" was the good one

 

[horse's_ass]

No, Rive Gauche is what you're looking for.

 

[AndroFan]

Ditto. That sounds way too awesome for me to be able to leave behind. I'd just as soon let it sit in my closet with my small but growing "museum" collection.

$60? probably if it's in really good shape but it might not be easy to sell. sounds too cool to leave behind though, would cop.

It isn't terrible, but generally flips around $10-$15 total (shipping included). Rive Gauche goes for 4-6x that.

Sorry E, this one is too big for you....but it is my size. Don't be sad though, I may have some candy for you this week...pending measurements.

Quick crappy snap, but AE Elgins in exactly my size: A bit worn, but i'll wear them a bit and get them recrafted if i feel like its worthwhile. Bad news was the lady at the SA said they came in the bag and with the shoe trees, but they were thrown out.

Those are some of the coolest AE I think I've ever seen, good job!

...

Got some stuff processed early this weekend. A quick rundown of some of it before I head to Baltimore for the Bloc Party show at Ram's Head. Windowpane Tweed - 38R

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Summer weight Gun Check 3/2 - 38R

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Holy ****! Dibs!!!!

Speaking of awesome patterns... I'm thinking at least one gent might be excited by this one.

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

No size tag, but fits near a 38R-40R. Measurements: 20" P2P, 18.5" waist, 23.5" sleeves, 17.5" shoulders, 30" BOC

Sleeves.......too......short......

Ditto. That sounds way too awesome for me to be able to leave behind. I'd just as soon let it sit in my closet with my small but growing "museum" collection. You have one of those too? Noe I can tell my wife I'm not the only one.

^^^^^ Is it really hard to quote a bunch of stuff at the same time? Or am I just really bad at computing.

Not a thrift... discount find

I know there's a lot of bike people in this thread. Scored this a few days ago for myself. Loving it... except for the pain in my legs and butt!

That is ******* sick. You need to do something about those pedals though.

in before the 60k rapture.

Well, I wont post my ****** finds from today then, seriously, one of the only strike out days I think I've ever had. 7 stores and only a tie and a pair of braces.

 

[GMMcL]

Kopped.

One of my most unique, rarest set of finds coming up on your late local news. Not my best in terms of volume or value or anything. But definitely in terms of sheer rareness and awesomeness.

Haven't been out much recently and not finding a lot around town. Went out last night and all day today and came up pretty empty. Bought a few not worth mentioning for myself and the following

Arnold Brant 3 button sport coat made of Loro Piana Cashmere (fits like a 42R or S. Arms are really short but jacket length seems regular on me)

Perfect condition WW2 era military shirt, not sure if worth the pickup but seemed too cool to pass up

Also not pictured but picked up a Levis and Liberty collab denim jacket which seemed to be somewhat collectible to someone hopefully.

Passed on a pretty recent (from what I remember of the tags) Hickey Freeman cashmere sport coat at $30 because it was a 50R. Could proxy if it's still there tomorrow.

Dangit. Post 60,000 FAIL.

Nice! WWII stuff is getting very scarce, especially the wool stuff not littered with moth holes!
