Re: "The Overpriced Finds Thread"

Too many sellers appear to have done a quick internet search, found that German guy's website and assume that his prices are the norm. Then try to add a bit on for good luck.


some sort of banal legitimacy

Re: "The Overpriced Finds Thread"

I don't know about sunlight but I often see men wearing very light brown shoes with dark pants, charcoal or navy or black, and it's a mistake.

Re: "The Overpriced Finds Thread"

Haha. True. But you are forgetting the vital component that separates the very dark denim and the navy trousers - the turn-up.

That little fragment of a lighter colour means the dark denim works.



(For 'very dark denim' please see what they are now terming 'rigid')

Re: "The Overpriced Finds Thread"

Also strange that someone needs these so badly that they don't balk at $1600, but won't pay $2000?

$40 for an Alden... box. Plus shipping, of course.
