Plus this badass shirt. There's a pair of white 501s with my name on them I hope will still be around for a saturday sale, that should go well with this shirt and some loafers. I"m dreading this summer's heat...


Can you post a pic of the label? I'm curious what this bad boy is... Looks like it should be solid 1960s rayon?

First of all, anyone have much experience with William Reid? From what I can see, its BReids precursor, and snagged a few pieces today. Also, any feedback on Madeline Finn? I don't think i've ever seen it on here, or in person before, but snagged a shirt today, it seems to have quite nice fabric, and massive chunky MOP's.
Second, can someone PM me a message on all the noobs? Who has proven to be a good guy/trade partner etc? I only ask because I see a lot, and want to reward those who need ot be rewarded/not hook a brotha up who isn't contributing meaningfully etc.  Also, another item I snagged just for trade, or w/e for one of you guys, is a RL signature (blue cursive label as posted recently) w/ besom pockets (sorry) but w/ ticket pocket and dual vented. Ill post pics later, but its got someone's name on it for 10+shipping. Also, WTF was going on today, i literally had to pass on 10+ unvented old zegnas, a dunhill that was too worn, and some other **** that obviously came from the same person.
PS you dallas/ft worth mothers... Will no one meet up with me? ****, im a decent guy, ill even buy your a beer, I WANT TO MEET SOMEONE FROM SF AND HOPEFULLY HIT A STORE WITH THEM!!!!!!!!
PPS Sorry, drunk again...


Hahahaha, drunk Sfing, I've done that waaaaaaaay too many times. :D I've really got to watch myself on the B&S when I've had a few in me.

All pant finds from monday. I'm not mad though.

Incotex, 40. Noticed when I got home that the button is broken however the button on the inside is identical. You could swap that one with something else and not even know the difference. Available

Any thread interest in a black faconnable 100% cashmere overcoat 52/42?


Hahahaha, just saw that and thought about picking it up. Made in or Vietnam or China or something though. Must have just missed you again.

So my wife and I are going camping next month, Glaicer, Yellowstone, the Grand Tetons and the Badlands. I've got an old NF Mountain tent that I bought back in 98. After a hot decade of Phish tour coupled with an extended camping/road trip all through the southwest and up the west coast, it's basically been reduced to tatters. We were just talking this morning about biting the bullet and dropping $350-$400 on a new one, when I found this:

Vintage EMS made in Boston Mass tent. Dated 1981, I honestly think it was never set up. ******* pristine! And even came with an old tube of seam sealer. It's no mountain tent, but for $8, I'm pleased.
A stack of soul and funk records.

My wife also asked me to keep an eye out for one of those vintage rubberized rain coats for her. Found this Lacoste version today in her size.

HF for myself. The cashier actually overcharged me $1 on my credit card and told me to go pick out a shirt.

Minty Pendleton wool shawl collar cardigan, wooden buttons. N/A

Looks good from what I can see. You should take more pics that show the fit better and post them in the WAYWRN thread.

Saw this awesome BB heavy duty workwear hunting jacket thing got super excited. Saw the $50 price tag but still threw it over my shoulder. Had so much handy work, cord collar and cuffs, tons of pockets inside and out. Great weight to it. Size Large



Just got one of those minty for 11 bucks! Pretty things aren't they? Mine is N/A, gave it to a close friend who traded me for a pair of AE russet captoe bluchers! :D
