The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

So now I'm starting to freak out a little.

I'm going to guess you find a total of 6 today.
How many more stops you got?

FOUR PAIRS OF SHELL
Ah ah ah

Some decent finds today.

That sucks. I hate it when things like this kill my buzz on an otherwise good find.

Funny story from Wednesday that I forgot to tell. As I was headed toward one of the spots, my wife called and asked me to pick up some baby food. This store is right next door to a grocery store. So I went there first, because otherwise I'd forget. (Yes, I am that forgetful. I'm even worse with names). As I walk in, I see a major flipper standing on line buying like a candybar. Our eyes locked. And I literally spun on my heel and legged it out and over to the store. He never came in. He either beat me there (possible since there was very little left other than an Isaia piece, but I'd be surprised if he missed it) or he just leapfrogged me to the next spot. It was one of those times where I think we both read each other's thoughts.

That is the Covert cardigan model (save you some time poking around eBay / the arcteryx site looking for a match, if you're gonna list it on eBay...)
Not a currently available color, might be 2012.

E-thrift brag. Size 16D TBNY "Parke" loafers. I have 2 pairs of AE loafers (Stowe and Grayson) but they're both burgundy calf and look kind of harsh with jeans. So I'm happy to have found some mid brown ones. Plus I like TBNY a lot and I always have a hard time finding my size.

In field. Nice coat with working cuffs. This a SC?

Cant tell if I like color

 

[edwardthefirst]

Well, Southwick is a good brand. Similar to Brooks Brothers, but usually full canvas. I can't see the jacket to tell if it's a sport coat or not.

If it's for you, then only you can decide; and if you're asking if it's a SC, you need a full pic of the jacket. If you're offering to proxy, you need to shoot the whole jacket for other members to get the picture. If it's for ebay, you need to either get the ebay app for your phone or go home, take a pic, do research, and hope it's still there if the price is enough to justify a flip.

Either way, you're doing it wrong. :/

Unless those are cashmere or camel hair or something, they both look like orphans to me.

You guys have been killin' it in here! Nice finds all around! Here is my meager contribution from two stops today. Too lazy to take decent pics. Apologies.

Pendleton

i was there when those dunhill jackets came out, look close, at least 1 other had moth damage. i reunited the one pair of pants with the one jacket then realized they were damaged. got 2 zegna15milmil jackets though from the same donor on the same rack though, really recent too

Boy am I glad I posted my finds before DM7 posted. Pure insanity.

OK, denim heads. Every time I think I've got my hands on a solid pair of selvedge, when I post shots, people mock me. That's not to say I don't still wear and enjoy them, just that I don't feel comfortable posting shots. So how do we think these fit?

Looks good to me. +1 on cuffing.

Nat (or anyone else). Is this a thing? It is heavy as heck for what it is, and the styling is amazing.

Not crazy but definitely cool and getting to be scarce. Korean war era M-1950 field jacket. Worth $30-$40.

Recent Finds: Zilli 100% Cashmere Samuelsohn

Spoiler: Warning: Spoiler!

Both gorgeous jackets but Zilli Pure Cashmere?! Crazy!

And so does the store down the street from salvo.

I think you've pulled out more shell than anyone else on here. I've found maybe 10-12 pairs over my entire thrifting career.

That is the Covert cardigan model (save you some time poking around eBay / the arcteryx site looking for a match, if you're gonna list it on eBay...) Not a currently available color, might be 2012.

Thanks for the tip! Definitely saved me some time doing research!
