The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

That shirt popped up on my feed, I was surprised it was still there 15 minutes later. Do you wear your shirts that roomy?

no

Fishy went thrifting! Everything I grabbed this time has some bumps and bruises, but still seemed decent enough to grab.


First off: A mystery! Anyone know who did MTM for Larimor's? This is a 2 roll 1 (Yes, 2 roll 1) jacket from god knows when, really awesome herringbone tweed with red, orange, and green windowpanes. Tons of handwork, but no indication who made it :/ Has a strained vent that needs some fixing - if anyone here wants this puppy I'll ship it to you at cost + shipping. Measurements after the jump!




Here ya go!
P2P 24"
Waist 23"
Shoulders 19.5"
Sleeves 23" (Feels like there's a good 2" more to be had back there)
Length - collar: 32"























Alfred Sargent for some maker I've never heard of (IDed by last and heel nail pattern) Fits 9D. Two nicks that need proper filling.












Southwick tweed SC, some nicks in the lining and a cracked cuff button, but just look at that baller windowpane! Green, orange, yellow, and red 40 R, measurements after the jump.



Measurements:
Shoulders: 18"
P2P: 20.5"
Length - collar: 30"
Waist: 19"
Sleeves: 25"

Damnit. Ah well my PP is drained currently so it's not like I could've grabbed it. Several drinks later and another pair of alden NSTs, this time with ripple soles? Never seen that on Alden's before, are these just old as hell or are they orthopedic?

 

[sparrow]

not the middle one

was going to say, middle looked a little pricey for a thrift

Probably two of my highest quality finds, if orphans, with an interesting story...

Sounds like a personal problem

Well done.

I would say no, that's the licensed stuff so poorly made. You want the mother and child label that looks like a big Sail.
