The official thrift/discount store bragging thread

[closetmess]

Recently returned from a trip to Brooklyn.

Copped a mint Canali tux jacket (thinking 1980s), and the SO grabbed a pretty nice (fake) fur for $40.

Stopped by the Pack N Mail and the local thrift is literally 2 doors down so I always stop by after I drop off my weekly packages. Today was good. Popped my Loro Piana cherry.



100% Silk Skeet, are they usually silk?

2 pages back. His rule is don't spend more the $10 on shoes.

I don't follow it, but if you do, there's almost no downside.

I've always loved Bally shoes. I've worn them since the 80s, when I could first afford them. Always had the softest leather but because of this they always wore out quickly. Ultra thin soles. I still have a couple of pair but I added sole savers as soon as I bought them.

They're not as popular here in the states as some of the other fashion brands.

Dunno much about Norm Thompson, just thought it was cool. Carry on with your Kiton's!

I spent $15 on these because as someone else pointed out...they look barely worn. Ah well, live and learn. They definitely do have the softest leather I've touched on a shoe. It feels amazing to the touch. Appreciate the response and thanks again for the Clarks

I would have bought up to about $25, but over $20, I would have fretted about it. And that's because I like the shoes. At $15, I wouldn't have worried. You'll do fine.

I like what I've seen as far as their tweed offerings are concerned. I run across a lot of shirts that are just terrible though lol. I wonder who makes their Made in England tweeds

The coat I picked up is made in Ireland. The real deal.
