@Inorganic Yes - I loved my 80s - and locked is great! Remember to service your birfields every 60-70K miles... and the PHH too...

@Inorganic I got the Kit Cat from a shop that was alongside a road in France when I was there on holiday last month, basicly a hanger filled with junk and this little gem.

The rest are from garage sales in Belgium, almost every town has one of these per year, especialy during summer and if you go to the south part (the Ardennes).

@indigostiff just got the birfs rebuilt - i was tempted to do the work myself but decided to leave it to the professionals

Some good thrifting this weekend in Sisters, OR.
This hunting jacket is a beauty ($4!) - thinking about trying to dye it…but the obscene orange may grow on me. My son (11) picked up these gloves to start a mini fight club with his buddies. They’ve been having insane battle royales since…

@Inorganic that album looks interesting....

[Inorganic]

@GraemeE I have yet to listen to it - I was intrigued by the cover and what looks to be an oud. I’ll report back what I find out

Please do

My oldest has been pining for a leather biker jacket (probably a mix of us bombarding her with glam rock from an early age and the fashion of current popstars) and I think I found a suitable candidate today

[Danimal506]

@GraemeE Killer find!

[GraemeE]

@Danimal506 thanks man
My kids ask for all sorts of ridiculous things that I have to shoot down but when it's something like a vintage jacket I have to find a way to make it happen

[Danimal506]

@GraemeE That’s awesome. You’ve got a great thrift store to find that too

[dwaynelum]

@Inorganic my son and wife have had some good finds in Eugene and Portland. Son, hunting and sports gear. Wife, lots scores covering a wide array.

@Inorganic love that skull very 666, makes me want to get one! maby we should start a taxidermy tread? I have a couple of contributions

Yeah I fecking love that skull too it's amazing. I have a couple taxidermy mounts here in WV...a large rainbow trout, a northern pike and a big ol white tail buck. All from my uncle Bill that he fished and hunted. He gave me a turkey tail display too but mice got to it.

Not necessarily my vibe but I can flip us made college gear pretty easily on ebay to help fund my next IH purchase

[Mizmazzle]

@GraemeE is the "Ivy" thing still popular in Japan?

[Matt]

I wear my own college’s sweat but I wouldn’t wear someone else’s. Go Bobcats!

[GraemeE]

@Mizmazzle good question

I know it definately is with a certain segment of the genZ population over here

[Matt]

Probably the closest those dumbasses’ll ever get to one. No cap.

I actually regret not having bought a Nottingham Trent University Sweater on my term abroad. Don't know about the reputation of that university but I really enjoyed studying there.

I don't know if college sweaters are a thing in Germany. I hardly ever see anyone wearing one.

Flea market in Fells Pnt today…
