Can't find that other one just yet.
Ah - Wes, that's the one I was thinking of. Thought I remembered it being a BIN which was why I associated it with Brian.
I was confused, as most of them I sell don't go for over $75. That said..... I'm bragging about this one that JUST sold and was on consignment here for a fellow thrift thread poster

Next up a NWT Levi's Made & Crafted/Levi's Vintage Clothing Sack Coat. Size L. Tag says "Levi's Made and Crafted Sample" but content tag says Levi's Vintage Clothing- My guess is that is indeed LVC. Too big for me so available - I'm looking at you nataku.

Nice find! However, I don't think you need to roll the sleeves. The length looks like it'd be perfect if you left them alone, and right now you're borderline showing too much cuff even for an MCish fit. For some reason the jacket made me think of a recent fit from WAYWT, also with sleeves rolled, but you can see the difference in length and effect (http://www.styleforum.net/t/164384/the-waywt-discussion-thread/98925#post_6503893)

Unless that was just a red herring to distract us from the manpris.
I agree with ken I think wider legged pants looks good pegged and capri length also those birks are dope

Here is a little summary of the company off of their old site:

http://buckles.it/

And here is a their New and IMPROVED website, in English!

http://www.obi.it/welcome.asp?lang=en
Obi Italy belt - they are a maker for all the big Italian names, but I can't find anything on selling items direct. Wonder if this was like a gift shop at the end of a factory tour type thing. Also the research is muddied by the fact that Obi is also a STYLE of belt, almost impossible to find an "Obi" the maker belt/belt buckle.

I was going through the jackets and felt something weird on my hand. Someone had spat on a jacket...at least I think that's what it was. Be careful out there.


I watched someone sneeze into a shirt sleeve once. Literally grabbed a long sleeve shirt sleeve and blew his nose into the shirt, then continued on.

Not selvedge. i'm generally a 36 but these were a little bigger which was too bad because some summer jeans would be nice


Dang! Yeah, Spurrs are nice, too.

Oh man. I'd be all over that but it's too big for me too. :( Wonder why it runs so large. Usually this type of stuff runs slim. Thanks for thinkin' of me, though!


Found some cool stuff today. Everything is available.

Scored some nice NWOT Martin Dingman belts for peanuts.
