And is this worth picking up? I know their vests are a thing, but this? Purple-ish shirt with brown corduroy collar. Fugly in my opinion. Can go back tomorrow if anyone would want it.


Looks like free money to me. Lining looks awesome IMO.

I'm in europe and I doubt I could sell it here. Vintage americana stuff isn't very popular, at least not those less known brands. There's no market for it.

Zara Denim Couture - Sweet piece in a 38. A bit pricey, but if all else fails, totally wearing this.






Beige/Cream Cable knit V-neck Alpaca Sweater

700




missing a string for the insert area on the back, but I figured someone would like it nonetheless.

Hi guys, couple questions:


Is this Burberrys real? Seems well made and has Made in England tag but I've never seen that label before.




And is this worth picking up? I know their vests are a thing, but this? Purple-ish shirt with brown corduroy collar. Fugly in my opinion. Can go back tomorrow if anyone would want it.


That 'Burberrys' looks pretty old, by the tag as well as color combo...and I don't recall seeing it in 'quotes' on a label before, so either just old, or old and not Burberrys.

Depending on what the RFMB is, it could be a something. Yes, vests are always a thing; jackets & parkas can be, depending. US buyers would pay for int'l shipping if it's right.

I saw those. Probably would have fit me, but what's the point of buying something so faded? Never got that concept. I'm all about that blank canvas. Then again I actually have a pair of your old Uniqlos so I can't really talk.

For the ill fits

YOU WIN
Funny you say this, I hit up a Goodwill on my way home tonight and saw 2 sport jackets that were fun as hell. I literally thought, man, if I had Wes or Spoo's eBay following I could sell these, but since they're no named, no one would ever find them if I posted them!
Get them next time!

In the field, Chicago burbs, came across two Tom James royal classic suits with custom made tags for Jim McMahon. Do you think the odds are good that it's da bears?

Think I just thrifted the oddest jacket ever - 17.75" shoulder measurement with a 24" pit to pit.

If it's a true natural shoulder (where the shoulder will extend beyond the seams) then I can see that.
