Nothing crazy today. Two pick ups over lunch.

I don't think this is an orphan SC and I think it's recent-ish. Looks like very little wear and ALL the pockets are basted shut.42R
And a pair of 9.5 Cole Haan horsebit loafers. The heels look like they've barely seen the light of day.

Both available in case anyones interested.

That is bad ass. Damn shame the 2" that needed to be in the lapels ran away with the 2" that needed to be in the length

Damn, I bet you have multiples of the tie I'm looking for in trade too.

Jacket is an orphan and old....like 5 lables ago old.

and

Shoes... maybe its just the pictures but they look pretty beat (maybe heels replaced??)

If you are buying this stuff for you all good, but to trade and sell, which is sounds like...might want to be a little more picky. IMO

Gentleman, I've been supremely busy at school but find myself looking for a new thin watch. Anyone have anything that meets this standard? Classic looking would also be appreciated. :) please message me if you have something.

Oh balls. I guess I'll return it shortly then. Atleast the shoes will do well at that other place.

Weird to see something older show up like this then. I thought the lapels were a little more fishy than usual, but I was hopeful. Too hopeful. haha.

Can you tell from the tag that it was an orphan? I don't see a pant size on there. I guess the buttons look a little suspect.

BLARRRGHHHH!

Sell it on eBay as an SC and see what happens.

Nah. Shoes look decent. Flash was weird. It'll be fine in natural light.

How can you tell about the orphan-ism? I mean, the buttons are a tell but anything on the tag?
I should have known better. They're using the griffin logo now right? I've seen one lately too.

Blah. I feel like a lost cause right now haha.

Oh yeah. I am pretty bummed. Was in TJ Maxx on Sunday and they had a Links of London watch on clearance for $99. Great looking piece with a chronograph, but the chronograph function was off. It was quite a shame because it really was a nice looking watch.
