@Don did you search the GW for the pants? Maybe it was a suit that was split up

@jon Yes, I still have it. I haven't had a chance yet, but I will tonight, along with measurements. I'll hold off on putting it on eBay and put the pics and measurements here.
I don't know if anyone is a size 8.5C shoe, but I also still have the black Timberland moc-toe chukkas that I haven't posted. They're NWOT and very nice. They've made me really want some moc-toe boots but now I'm having a very hard time finding the oiled waxy Sebago Beacons I'm lusting after in my size.

I could probably fit into a 8.5C, shoot me some pictures. I'm always in the need for some chukkas, although I hardly ever wear black shoes.
Today was a pretty good run - RLPL houndstooth tie with a pink stripe, 2 spring cotton knit ties, a 36R sportcoat with suede elbow patches, ticket pocket, and hacking pockets, some Florshiem shoe trees, and a GANT shirt in my size.

I think my local Value Village has officially lost it. Today I saw a crappy Tommy Hilfiger suit for $80, lame department store shirts for $13, a no-name pilled overcoat for $70 and there a Costco mom jeans-style denim shirt marked higher than Brooks Brothers and a Charles Tyrwhitt. I swear the prices there have gone up 30% in the last 6 months and it's not even worth it anymore.

If anyone's an 11.5 and into Jcrew's wingtips, this could be a good deal: http://www.askandyaboutclothes.com/f...29#post1261129

I have no idea how old it is, but it is spelled Burberrys, if that matters. Muse's went out of business in the early 90s, I think. I found this bit about the store on SF:
"The holy Atlanta Institution of Muse's is no more - although their empty storefront still exists downtown. The floors above it have been converted to loft apartments/condos/whatever.
There was a time when anyone who was anyone in Atlanta shopped in only one of two places: Muse's for the more exclusive crowd and Rich's for everyone else. Both are now gone. Muse's simply closed, Rich's became Macy's (or if you want my opinion - Macy's Lite)."
I see tags from that shop all the time and usually pass over them. Maybe I should start picking them up.
