I’d be shot showing the equivalent of my honey’s - with tags still on.

.                    I was under the impression that those jackets are pretty rare and highly coveted. Saw one on Etsy going for $700

My closet is definitely more sparse than that. If I have too many options I will wear the same 3 shirts, 2 pairs of jeans and one pair of shoes.

Our storage room downstairs where we keep all of our listed Poshmark/Grailed/eBay items folded up in bins on shelves, though…well that looks pretty similar.

This has been a life long collection, passion of mine. I still have some pairs from just before I went in the Navy. I am going to start selling most of it off.  Most are 32, 33 34 36 waist X 36 inseam.  Most jackets range from 44 to 48.

I was sent this by a Scottish customer today.  I found it super-interesting, but have not fact-checked it….

I was in Seven Dials, Covent Garden this weekend for a meal/drinks with my wife. We’d left a pub and walking down the road straight towards us was Thom Yorke from Radiohead. I’ve loved Radiohead since I was about 13, they’ve always been an important, ever present part of my life. I’ve never been so utterly bowled over by seeing a famous person in real life. He was a couple of feet from me but I just froze and stared. My wife said I was squeezing her hand very, very hard and just went extremely wide-eyed in disbelief haha.
To my shame I didn’t have the courage to stop him and speak, just to say “thank you”. I wonder how much it would be appreciated anyway, I imagine not a huge amount. But he realised I was looking (staring like an excited schoolgirl) and gave me a slow, polite nod. Possibly a well honed technique to preemptively stop dickheads like me from approaching.. but for him to acknowledge my presence absolutely made my day…

That is nice @jerkules good story. Probably how I felt when I met Justin Sullivan the first time at age 18.

[jerkules]

Cheers @neph93 it’s always weird to occupy the same physical space as people you’ve admired from afar.

[popvulture]

@jerkules I would 1000% do the exact same thing if I saw him.

Here’s a story that happened here in Austin a few years ago. It made me more than a bit jealous, but on the other hand there’s no way I could’ve kept my shit together haha…

Yeah, I would have done the same thing.  I’m sure he appreciates your quiet awe from afar rather than being stopped for a selfie or whatever.  Great moment.  Very cool.
