Oddity at the bootsale today, pair of Wrangler chairs, guy got off said he got them in the 70's from the showroom as he supplied their jeans for his store, Shame their not lee or Levi but cool for a fiver!

those are really cool

Cheers pal, Cant decide what to do to them yet, wether to replace the seat on both or just do some repairs to the one thats battered

[riffblaster general]

I think it would look pretty amazing if you took the upholstery off and had it repaired on a darning machine.

Nice chairs! I say repair the seat, too. The wear on the original canvas looks great.

Check out what I scored the other day:

It's in great shape, got that fantastic tin-cloth funk smell…

DANG!  That's awesome!!  To get rid of the funk mix in another essential oil when you wax it next time.

It's one of the craziest books I leafed through… Absolutely stellar how it's put together...

Black Orchid, being an artist herself, sighed "oh I wish I had that Book" when she saw your score Seul.

34! So they fit like a dream. So comfy. Definitely a straighter cut than what I've been wearing, but such nice denim.

Got this for cheap but a tad long for my feet

As promised in the product thread here is an original  N1 deck parka I thrifted today.  Missing two buttons and the zipper has definitely been replaced.  The usn stencil is very faint but still visible.  The pile is almost like new surprisingly.
