I know I’m on record saying you can’t “win” at thrifting. However, today I seriously started to reconsider.
Not Pictured:
2 Piece Royal Stewart Jacket/Vest combo
Vtg. Gray Plaid Car Coat
6” Bean Boots
Vtg. Brooks Bros Gray Glen Plaid Sport Coat
Navy Wool Unbranded Varsity Jacket
Vtg. Bleeding Madras Sport Coat
Assorted 70’s cookware & accent pieces (Fisherman Piggy Bank, Maine Lobster themed Coasters, 2 clocks, crock pot, weird kitchen info thingy, projector screen… I’m probably more excited about that stuff than I should be)
Vtg. Lacoste DB Tweed Jacket
Vtg. Oxblood Florsheim Longwings
EVEN MORE STUFF THAT’S LESS INTERESTING TO #MENSWEAR.
Seriously though. Online store opens soon (hopefully).
Holy shit.

Interesting scarf tie. Definitely a good F/W look, though. Greens and browns are almost foolproof, and they let you wear interesting things like a plaid shirt with a navy blazer without looking out of place.

Not a bad start to my birthday. Bacon cheeseburger, and a trip to the Salvation Army where I was met with an unexpected surprise: $3 for (almost) everything sale. Everything I bought was $3 though, so that bag of goodies cost me $27.
The bag is even bigger and more stuffed than it looks in the picture since I stocked up on some seriously heavy F/W tweeds.
Not pictured here is a navy linen Brooks Brothers sport coat; a vintage HSM dark olive tweed herringbone jacket w/ hook vent; a nice navy plaid sport coat from Nordstrom; a coral red/pink Lands’ End blazer with patch flap pockets; and a crazy thick and heavy wool (feels like loden) jacket w/ hacking pockets and leather buttons, made in Hungary. I’ll probably throw some elbow patches on it for the upcoming winter. I’m sure you’ll see pictures of it once the weather gets colder here…
I’m definitely not mad about the Dormeuil sport coat. Lots of handwork, padstitched lapels, and other nice details.
god damn.

Strange, but true, this thrifted double breasted black side vented blazer was only $1.25 during a crazy sale. No alterations needed. Just simply added gold buttons.
That is unbelievably awesome.
