Caraceni, and that is all their manufacturer label is for LBCS, that small tag.


A while back I dug around looking to confirm that the Grilux tag was Caraceni. Wasn't able to confirm, but I've assumed it's the case.

Just beware that's not confirmed.

So I was summoned to jury duty today and I told my boss a while back and had the day off. Showed up at the court house this AM only to find it had been cancelled. which means i had a full morning of thrifting before i needed to get home and get some work done. boy am i glad i got out! some great stuff this AM! some from the other day some from today. available unless marked otherwise.

start with the mundane.

i hardly ever pick up Polo but i don't have a red jacket other than a red soft shell from patagonia, so i was looking for something casual but not patagonia shell casual. usually would have passed but this doesn't have the elastic waist, instead has an actually really nice cafe racer style cut. and the tartan accents sealed the deal. pretty pumped about polo for one! NA






nano puff small


pretty rare BB nylon yachting jacket









Awesome BBBF fits perfect and I was looking for a nice shirt in a pattern like this for a while. cant tell from the pictures but it looks like it was hardly worn save the wrinkling NA



Burberry 100% cash. i love there cashmere scarves. thick as hell. NA

I ******* love this thing. 100% lambswool BB robe. herringbone grey with blue trim. awesome. NA unless you have something similar in a small. its just a tad big but it will work until i find something in a small.

it's this one but with blue accents. i actually like the blue better. http://www.brooksbrothers.com/Lambswool-Herringbone-Chalk-Stripe-Robe/B218,default,pd.html




and now for the best! seriously pumped about these. all right in a row. spent the most in one thrift store at one time in a long time. grand total of 40$ for all 4.


just some innocuous bags...

damn, only super 150's on the first suit.

ohh well. the second suit made up for it.




no more suits but thats ok. two SC's will suffice.











kind of bummed there was no Vicuna but ohh well, can't complain. the checked coat is actually green and cream colored, ill try and take a better photo now to show the true colors.

also getting some packages out today to some of you. be on the watch.

It would make sense. He was working for Pozzi Caraceni before he became a brand according to this interview I'm reading. But this interview happens to be translated from German so it also kinda makes no sense.

First off, congrats, you annihilated my record of 3 Kiton Cashmeres Jackets in one stop. Secondly, all that **** only cost you 40 bucks? Jesus, 40 bucks will get you an old hugo boss at some of places here.

40 was only for all the kitons. The rest was probably about 30 total. Still not bad.
