So what are your opinions on them? I really wanted those for me, because the fabric texture and color are great, and very solid construction

  RRL Herringbone jacket. Removable metal buttons. It's tagged Medium, but fits like a large. I didn't buy it, but if anyone wants it, I can go pick it up. It's ¥5800, which is about $52-53 right now. |

Speaking of thrifting...I really have to thank all the members of this forum. I went to my local goodwill this past saturday. I found myself plucking quality items, from hundreds of shirts. Thanks to you all, I could spot the quality items, and bypass the junk. I was pulling J Crew, 5 brothers, orvis, and other quality stuff. My eye for quality has definitely improved, thanks to you guys. Unfortunately, most of it didn't fit. I did pick up a vintage pair of Knapp wingtips for 6 bucks. Saw a pair of alden loafers, but they were size 7  One item that was too big..that I think I might go back and buy anyway,if it's still there, was a beautiful light colored (kinda beige/camel) herringbone, wool, London fog top coat. It was only 7.50 for the coats there. On second though..I am going back for it...if I can't wear it...maybe I can offer it up here for what I paid. Damn, I hope it's still there :/ Anyways, Thanks again fellas for the education  |

nice score @untucked! I was amazed that some of the stuff I saw was brand new, tags still on, even the pins and the little plastic piece that they put on the top button was still intact...like it was never even tried on. Really getting into this new hobby of checking the thrift shops You never know what you'll find, I think that's part of the fun! |
