to each his own i guess.
I just got a text from my mate who is headed from Denver to Chicago to tomorrow I think- any advice - its cold isn't it? He only went over a week ago - been in sfx a week.
Shameless self-promotion alert!
Upcoming stock to be listed to the Etsy page includes: Flannel sack suit, loden green tweed sack suit, NOS J.August shirts, Batik and paisley popovers, a CHIPP suit, and a huge stock of thin repps. All certifiable 1960s vintage. Accept not substitutes and stay tuned.
More sack suits and ties to come this week. The Chipp suit didn't last long but that gorgeous loden green tweed suit is just sitting there. Size 44L 40S and 40L are on the way. Tons of repps and wool challis as well.
NOS Arrow "The Traditionalist" light blue OCBD.
Size 15.5 x 35. Union Made in the USA. Don't know how old it is, but I would say late 60s or early 70s?Tapered Fit.
Could need an iron after the long storage in the plastic bag. Comes with original bag.
Don't know about the price, I think 25 Euro including worldwide shipping would be fair?

Have to say that TTR has got some lovely stuff going on...
The Sero and the Madras popover are both gone. Apologies to any late-risers in the UK.
Zach, I tried to purchase a couple more of the repp ties last weekend and the Etsy shop told me that these item were not for shipment to the Netherlands. I see that they're still available in your shop, perhaps there's some mistake and you've pressed a rule stating these items can only be shipped within the USA?
The repp ties are now SOLD!
Zach, please don't give my address to Chenner's dandy-highway-alley-cats, wouldn't want to be visited by them with cutless drawn or flintlocks at the ready on a lonely moonlit evening whilst making my way back from the Admiral Benbow Inn full of rumbullion, grog and brain syphillis.
More shirts added TONIGHT! Vintage Gant, Royal Knight, Van Heusen, Arrow Cum Laude, some in NOS Condition for tall sizes!

Anyone out there interested in a Woolrich 'Chore' coat in a 'pale' olive green with detachable blanket lining? Not particularly 'old' I'd reckon but def a different earlier style of embroidered label than the one used now. Made in the USA needless to say. Condition just about perfect. Size was XL and I'd say that was accurate. It was in one of the local charity shops this afternoon but didn't pick it up. Happy to buy it tomorrow morning if it’s still there. It was priced at only £9.99 and one of you can have it for that plus the postage at cost. Please PM if interested.
All the best,
Staceyboy

Not sure why I can't edit the original post.
The 4 blue Mercers above are sold.
The pink oxford, pink striped oxford, tattersall poplin, and red striped poplin all still available.
Those Mercers move fast, not as fast as Zach's repp ties though. No one is faster than the Hepcat in getting hold of these.
Another good batch arrived yesterday, perfect for conversations on Skype with a white OCBD.
