AAAC Informal Trad Thrift Store Exchange

Come one, come all Trads:

Welcome to the Unofficial Ask Andy About Trad Informal Thrift Store Exchange thread.

Here's how it works. Post a reply to this thread if you are interested in informally being a part of the exchange, that is, you occasionally stop by thrift stores, are willing to buy Trad items to exchange with Trad brethren, and you are willing to wear thrift store finds.

In your post, tell us your "measurements" and what items you might be looking for. At any time, you can edit your post to alter a size (yes, we all do gain and sometimes lose weight), or change what you're looking for. Some participants may wish to post pictures of items they've found. Please, if you do this, pull the pictures down when the deal's been made.

Deals should be made by private message only, and we will operate under the honor system. Since thrift store items tend to be cheap, you won't be out tons of cash, but it's easier if we all agree to agree up front. You set the price, but try not to gouge your fellow Trad. We can agree to do this because those of us who have been to a thrift store have all felt the abject pain of finding the perfect sack tweed in a 38L. Well, someone's bound to be a 38L around here.

Finally: I think this lives on the Trad Forum because I believe we need to limit ourselves to truly Trad items, or the profoundly exceptional non-trad items (a darted odd seersucker jacket with embroidered lobsters, for instance). Sack suits especially are so hard to come by that when we find them in vintage shops and in good condition, we need to share them with each other.

Now, I have Golden Fleece three-piece sack suit that I need to measure and take some photos of...just you wait until you see this beauty.

PM me if you think I need to edit this post in anyway.

Thanks gents,
JB

5) The English Shop of Princeton 3/2 sack in cord by Corbin.

This is a terrific little gem! Made in the USA by Corbin for The English Shop of Princeton--one of the Big Four Ivy clothiers during the Golden Era of Ivy Style--this is a classic 3/2 sack, which features three patch pockets at the front--a very rare and desirable combination! The buttons are all natural horn; it features three on the front, and three on each sleeve. It is fully canvassed, and half-lined, and has a single centre vent.

Alas, this jacket has seen some wear. There is some minor sun fading on the sleeves and shoulders, and some brown foxing on the lapel at the roll, as shown, as well as more minor foxing by the hem on the front and on on the left sleeve. Despite these issues this is still very wearable, although it is in Good condition only. Because of these issues this is priced very low, given its provenance and the fact that it has a complete set of horn buttons, and so is just $22, or offer.

Chest: 20
Sleeve: 24 1/2 (+1 1/2)
Shoulder: 17 3/4

6) VINTAGE Classic Autumnal Plaid 3/2 jacket

This is wonderful! A true vintage 3/2 jacket that dates from the Golden Era of Ivy Style, this was made by Palm Beach, back when they made good stuff, for Strawbridge & Clothiers, of Philadelphia--the Strawbridge Building is now occupied by a mall brand, having folded in the 1990s, but during its existence it was a bastion of tradliness for the Philadelphia Main Line country club set.

This jacket is lovely! Its tweed has a classic 1950s/1960s patterning and colourway, a subdued plaid in muted forest greens and dark chestnuts, with a lighter green--almost grassgreen--overcheck. Although it has a 3/2 lapel, it features subtle darting, and a single centre vent. It is fully canvassed, and half-lined. It as, of course, Union Made in the USA.

It does have two minor issues: One of the cuff buttons is missing, which I would simply fix by converting it to a one-button cuff on both sides. And the lining has some fading to its colour at the edges owing to its age. Given these minor issues this is overlal in Very Good condition, and hence is

just $30, or offer.

Measurements:


Chest: 20 3/4
Sleeve: 24 1/2 (+1 1/2)
Shoulder: 18 1/2
Length: 30 1/2





7) VINTAGE 3/2 sack in light loden twill

This is a SPLENDID jacket! Cut from a lovely thick twill in a light loden green, this beauty is a true 3/2 sack with a lovely lapel roll. It dates from between 1962 and 1972, judging by the Union Label, and was sold by Roots, one of the major purveyors of tradly items in New Jersey and Eastern PA. (And this has a wonderful vintage label from there!) It has a lovely lapel roll, and the twill is wonderfully durable and attractive--almost like keeper's tweed, except all-wool and with no cotton content. It has classic two button cuffs, and is half-canvassed and half-lined. It has a single centre vent. And, of course it was Made in the USA.

This is in excellent condition, except for one minor flaw.... Sometime around 1978 the original owner left two things in the lower left pocket: a list of instructions from one of his clients (he was a lawyer), which were typed out on a manual typewriter.... and some candy! Unfortunately, the candy "leaked" into the lining of the pocket, which is now stiff and candified. (And possibly edible.) This has no effect on the jacket, but my advice would be to have the pocket liner replaced--a simple and easy job for any competent dry-cleaner tailor.

Given this, this jacket is in Very Good condition overall, and hence is very well priced at just

$30, or offer.

8) STUNNING orange plaid sack jacket!

This is simply lovely, and perfect for those of you that have orange as a school colour, such as Princeton or Syracuse! Made in Hong Kong, this has no fabric content listed, but it's clearly wool. The colourway and patterning are wonderful--I'll let my pictures do the talking here. This is a two button sack jacket, with two button cuffs; all of the buttons are brass-coloured and crested. It is half-lined. It has a single centre vent, and is in absolutely excellent condition, although it is clearly vintage.

This is a steal at just $35, or offer.

9) Basketweave Harris Tweed by Kuppenheimer

This is a lovely jacket! A contemporary two button model with subtle darting, this is half-canvassed and half-lined. It has four button cuffs and a single centre vent. The buttons are all leather-covered and metal-shanked--as they should be with Harris Tweed!--and they have just the right amount of patina. The tweed is wonderful; at first sight, it presents as a standard grey/black.cream basketweave, but closer inspection reveals that it is flecked throughout with chestnut brown, sky blue, corn yellow, and forest green--a lovely subtle Harris! It has lovely natural shoulders. This was Made in the USA. It's in excellent condition.

Asking just $35, or offer.

Measurements:


Chest: 20 1/2
Sleeve: 24 (+1)
Shoulder: 17 1/2
Length: 29 3/4





10) STUNNING VINTAGE Glen Plaid 3/2 sack Tweed from Princeton University Store--with amusing interior label, and BASTED POCKETS!

This is wonderful! First, the colourway--this is a striking and beautiful Glen Plaid in grey and black, with a lovely bold dark cranberry overcheck. The tweed is thick, and yet still soft, with a lovely hand and drape. The jacket is cut as a 3/2 sack with a lovely lapel roll; it has a single centre vent, and is half lined and fuly canvassed. It dates from around the early 1960s, although since the Union lapel is partially sewn in it's hard to pinpoint this with more accuracy. It was sold by the Princeton University Store, establishing its Ivy credentials, and carries the wonderful interior label "PhD--Philosophy of Dress"! Unusually for a jacket that's clearly been worn, the two front pockets are basted shut--so you could be the first owner to open them up in almost 50 years!

Despite its age, this jacket has worn exceedingly well. There is some minor wear to the edging of the interior pockets, as shown, and there are some pen marks in the lining above one pocket. It could use a dry clean just to freshen it up, but this should be conservatively ranked as being in Very Good condition.

It was, of course, Made in the USA.

Asking just $29, or offer.

Measurements:


Chest: 20 1/2
Sleeve: 25 (+1 1/2)
Shoulder: 18
Length: 30 3/4





11) THIS IS SPECIAL! Harris Tweed 3/2 sack.

Although the classic Ivy jacket is clearly the 3/2 sack, and the classic Ivy jacket material is Harris Tweed, 3/2 sacks in Harris Tweed are surprisingly rare, so if you find one in your size, grab it! That goes triple for this jacket, as the tweed is wonderful--a classic slate-blue herringbone, shot through the the classic vertical Harris striping, in this case a lovely tearose pink and light rose yellow.. The buttons are all leather-covered and metal-shanked, and the jacket is half-lined and half-canvassed. It has a lovely lapel roll, and a single centre vent. It was, of course, Made in the USA, and was sold at a Marblehead, Mass. clothier that was founded in 1925. It is in absolutely excellent condition!

Asking just $50 for this little gem!

Measurements:


Chest: 21
Sleeve: 24 3/4 (+1 1/2)
Shoulder: 18
Length: 30 1/4







12) Flecked Basketweave Harris Tweed

This is lovely!

This is a contemporary two button model with subtle darting; all of the buttons are leather-covered and metal shanked. This is half-lined, and has a single center vent. It was Made in the USA, and is in absolutely excellent condition. It has very natural shoulders.

14) STUNNING Plaid 3/2 sack with BAKELITE HUNTING DOG BUTTONS!

This is GORGEOUS! I'm loathe to part with this, but I have to admit that it just doesn't fit me properly--if it did, of it it could be tailored to fit, there's no way that it would be here.

The patterning and colouring are terrific--I'll let the pictures here speak for themselves! WHat yoiu can't tell from the pictures is that the cloth is wonderful--wool, but with a gorgeously soft hand and texture, that's almost flannel-like. This is a very luxurious jacket indeed! This is cut as a 3/2 sack, with a lovely liquid lapel roll. It is half-canvassed and half-lined, with a single centre vent. The shoulders are wonderfuly natural. And the buttons are FANTASTIC--my pictures don't do them justice at all. Creamy and smooth, they appear to be horn, but are actually more likely to be very fine Bakelite--and they feature a bas-relief of a standing hunting dog!

This really is a beautiful jacket, and I'm sorry to let it go....

Asking just $40, or offer.

Sleeve: 25 1/2 (+2)

17) LOVELY 3/2 tweed sack from The English Shop of Princeton

This is lovely! From The English SHop of Princeton--one of the iconic stores of the Golden Age of Ivy Style--this lovely tweed was made by Linnett, one of the great but now little known American clothiers. This is a classic 3/2 sack with a lovely fluid lapel roll; it also has a single centre vent, and is half-canvassed. The tweed is lovely--a beautiful glen plaid with blue and lichen green overchecking. The buttons are horn! It was Made in the USA.

This lovely jacket does, however, have some minor flaws in the lining, as shown; all of these are easy fixes, with the exception of the discoloration in the shoulders, which could simply be ignored. Because of these flaws, this is conservatively rated as Good/Very Good condition, and hence is just

$22, or offer.

This is a lovely vintage 3/2 sack that hails directly from the Golden Age of Ivy Style!

This has two button cuffs, lovely narrow lapels, a single centre hook vent, and a lapped centre seam; the vent seams are also lapped. It is half-canvassed, and half-lined in a lovely 1960s paisley lining. It has lovely natural shoulders. This could do with a dry-clean to freshen it up; it also has a weave fault hole on one sleeve, as shown. This was, of course, Union Made in the USA, and owing to its faults it is in Very Good condition.

This jacket is half-canvassed and half-lined, and features the classic leather-covered football buttons with metal shanks. It has a single centre vent, and was Union Made in the USA. It was also sold by Wanamaker's of Philadelphia; the first department store in Philadelphia, and one of the first in the USA, so it has a very nice historical background! It is, of course, in excellent condition, and a steal at just

$25, or offer.

This is a lovely jacket! Made in Italy from Italian cloth that's a blend of 90% wool and 10% cashmere with a correspondingly beautiful hand and drape, the cloth is close to a nailhead pattern, with a base of dark brown and the nailheads in rich chestnut brown and dark tan. My pictures do not do this justice at all! The lapel is cut as a 3/2, but this does have subtle darting--it is, after all, an Italian jacket! It is fully canvassed, and fully lined, and is unvented, in Flusser approved style. It features kissing buttons on the cuffs. It is in excellent condition.

It does have two minor flaws; there is a small rub mark at the hem on the front, as shown. There's also two very small smudges on the left pocket flap, which will likely come out with dry cleaning. It took me a while to find these, but they are there, and because of this this jacket is just in Very Good condition. As such, I am asking just $18, or lower offer, boxed and shipped in the USA. International inquiries are very welcome--and lower offers are very welcome, too!

Ralph Lauren Polo Field Jacket in Forest Green. XL.

This is lovely! Cut from a dark forest green cloth, this features a checked quilted lining for warmth. It has two deep bellows pockets at the front, which also feature side-entry handwarmer pockets. These are lined with the same checking as the main coat, and feature a double-flap system for security, similar to Barbour International Jackets. It has two side slash handwarmer pockets, also lined in the same check as the coat, and a fully functional throat latch. The cuffs are protected with leatherette trim; the collar is lined in the same material, as is the throat latch. This has two interior pockets. It has a zippered front closure, and also features a snap-front closure. The sleeves have functional adjusters that are secured by snaps.

The sole flaw is that the zipper pull is missing--it's currently replaced by a safety pin, but fixing this would be easy and cheap--it'll cost about $4 and take about 30 seconds, with a product like this:

MEASUREMENTS:

Chest: Armpit to armpit, laid flat.

1) Brooks Brothers cableknit in pima cotton. Size L. Chest: 21 1/2; sleeve 34 1/2; length 27. Excellent condition! Asking just $18



2) Oliver Perry cashmere sweater. Size XL. Chest, 24 1/4; sleeve 36; length 26 1/2. This is a beautiful dark plum colour--my pictures really don't do it justice! Excellent condition! Asking just $20



3) Wallin & Bros. cashmere and cotton sweater. Excellent condition, in a lovely forest green! XL; Chest: 22; sleeve 35 1/4; length 26 1/2. Asking just $16



4) Westaway & Westaway pure cashmere sweater. Made in Scotland. Slightly dusty from storage, and with some minor surface schmaltz on the right shoulder, which will come out with a dry clean; hence just Very Good condition. Chest: 21; length: 24 1/2; sleeve: 33. Asking just $16



5) Brooks Brothers "346" cashmere. Excellent condition. Size XL. Chest: 24 1/2, length: 25 3/4; sleeve: 35. Asking just $18



6) Patagonia wool sweater. This has two weaknesses in the weave; one on the front, as shown, and one on the sleeve. It also has some pilling throughout, and so is in Good condition only. Chest: 17 1/2; length: 24; sleeve: 31 1/2. Asking just $9



8) Dean's of Scotland Shetland Wool "Fun" sweater. This is lovely--the sweater equivalent of BB's Fun Shirts!

Chest; 19 3/4; Length: 26 1/2; Sleeve: 30 1/4.





9) AWESOME REVERSIBLE SWEATER! This is a great sweater--on one side very utilitarian navy with elbow patches and epaulettes, on the other, a reflective sweater. This is terrific. Issued to Princeton University's Public Safety people, this has a PUPS patch on one sleeve. No fabric content but the sweater is almost certainly wool. Excellent condition. Asking just $22. Chest: 21 1/2; Length: 27 1/2; Sleeve: c. 36 1/2.

Vintage USN '50s peacoat

PHOTOS: https://www.icloud.com/photostream/#AEJtdOXmg0sfx

This is an awesome coat. 100% melton wool with warm corduroy-lined pockets. Very heavy; very warm. It's in good shape but does have some wear. There is a moth hole that I had my seamstress repair on the arm. Also, the sleeves were lengthened, so there is a little wear around where the sleeve used to end. Both these issues are shown in the photos.


I love this coat, but its just too short in the body for me. My loss is your gain.

Measurements

Shoulders: 18.5"
Sleeve length: 26.75"
Chest: 21"
Total length: 31"

Asking $65 shipped.

This sportcoat is a bit of a mystery. I posted a question about it in the Thrift brags/blues thread yesterday. I've never seen the maker before. That said, it is a beautiful coat in like new condition. It does have more European stylings--2 patch pockets--unflapped, dual vents in the back. It is not overly padded in the shoulders, though. 2 button, darted.

A vintage LL Bean Baxter State Parka. Men's small and made in USA. It exhibits little wear and no rips, tears, abrasions or other structural issues, but there are cosmetic issues, fully pictured. Someone must have mucked this up early in its life, then put it away. If you don't mind a few spots that appear to be ink and one paint spot, this is the one for you. $25 CONUS

Big thanks to TweedyDon for another wonderful suit; I bought the DAKS suit from him and it fits perfectly, I am in shock I don't have to have anything tailored. Thank you also for the lagnappe that came with the suit! I had wanted another City suit for a while and this fits the bill perfectly. He's an asset to this group for sure.

From the box: Taken from Brooks Brothers' archives, this full dress shirt is appropriate for black or white tie occasions. We have chosen to use a detachable collar for this full dress shirt in order to maintain its formal character. To ensure an elegant and crisp facade, it features a highly starched placket with a side chest vent. The facade is further enhanced by a button tab at the bottom of the shirt, which allows the shirt to be secured to the trousers.
