Thrifting

[Big_Scooter]

Thanks! I really like the J&M ones, too. They are a bit darker in person. Worn once, and already a female compliment!


Alan, I always said the same thing, until I got the Florsheims a month or so ago. Occasionally, there is a diamond in the rough. Next, maybe I'll find a suit that actually fits me and I'll completely run out of things to whine about!


The Gant plaid shirt may be my #1 favorite find, strangely. Probably my favorite shirt, currently. I wore it all the time during the winter under cardigans and my navy sport coat. It was the first thing I found where the quality was so apparent that I started to understand why someone who wasn't insane could spend $150 on a shirt. I prefer the price I paid, however ($3).

The tie finds continue:





And I think these are both Incotex pants. Anyone wear a 38?

Wow, had a huge day today. Found LOTS of NWT Ted Baker London SC's:

JC what are the measurements on the 40r light gray Endurance SC? I am interrested if the measurements and price are right!

[jason_carreira]

I'll be measuring tomorrow. I'll post when I've got them.

[bruschetta]

Jason, how much do you want to sell the 40R linen sport coats for? I'm interested in both, once I know the measurements. Also, if you find any more - let me know. Seriously. I could use a regular supplier.

Meh, went thrifting today. I think I'll need to get more comfortable buying good clothes new before I can consider buying them second-hand.

[jose_jackson]

@JC Are you finding that NWT stuff at regular goodwill style thrifts or at consignment shop type places?

[jason_carreira]

At a Savers... I've previously found a NWT Canali Proposta SC there and I've found a NWT Hickey Freeman suit at a church thrift shop

[jason_carreira]

Here's all of the measurements:

Jason, how much are you asking? You're welcome to contact me via email if you don't want to post prices publicly.

Picked up a few jawns at Savers' half price winter sale after work:


- Perfect condition London Fog trench that hits mid thigh (I've been searching forever for a good rainjacket)

- Navy Bagir International blazer

- Grey cashmere Club Room v-neck and a casual blue and purple check Club Room shirt


They had a lot of nice sweaters but all had noticeable holes.

Again with the ties .... how about a nice sportcoat or something, Goodwill? You haven't given me any shoes in a while, either.
