-What Price Glory Khaki Drill Shorts, 1941 pattern.
These are marked a size 42 but shrunk to a size 38 (19" laid flat) and are unwearable now for me. I wore them twice and they are in perfect shape. I am asking $30 plus shipping, or best offer.
Thanks!
I collect ties. It's a disease, I suppose. I have more than I'll ever wear. Once in a while though a tie is found that is beyond awesome. Ladies and Gentlemen of the Lounge, I present to you the Dinosaur tie:
It's 100% Polyester, of course. But the subdued Triceratops pattern is great, I...
Sorry for the title!
I was in need of a cheap straw hat. A good panama is beyond my meager means at the moment. The recent trend of stingy brim straws at Target led me to a conclusion: why not? I sweat through stuff so fast in summer that anything expensive would be a waste and I get picky...
I have one of these too, it is beautiful and carries all the crap I drag to school on a daily basis. Like Scott says, they only possible downside is that it is TOO big!
Helluva deal though.
You know, I love a uniform story:
I picked up a Size 48, yes, 48, Ike Jacket. It was a WWII original that had been tailored to the 1948 style, a little shorter in the body and a few other, minor, changes. I paid practically nothing for it and it is a very interesting piece. Judging from...
I just picked up one of these:

It is becoming my favorite non-fedora. I think it will make a decent summer hat.
Then again, Wal-Mart is selling straws for $10 in a stingy brim style.
I actually just picked up a vintage SS dress shirt so I can be NASA chic over Summer. I figure that with all the leftover wannabe hippies roaming the streets its about damn time we had a representative from the awesome side of the 1960s, complete with skinny tie and pocket protector.

This jacket is really nice, but, rather refreshingly, is too large for me. I have never actually worn it.

This is a safari jacket for those of us on a budget. It is branded "MTA Pro".

I went looking for an interview suit today. As a poor student, I STILL do not have a decent suit that fits and looks good.
When I wear vintage (or inspired) I want to feel like I am wear armor, in the metaphorical sense. The better the fit and finish the more confident I feel. With that being...
Those are either Naval binoculars or were set on an Observation Post or bunker. Actually I would go with Naval because the Soviets copied them after the war using the same equipment those were built on. Cool find whatever the point. Your Uncle must have had some determination to get them home...
Some sort of Communist Bloc pin I bet. Not Soviet, as it would be in Russian. Could be any of the Eastern European States, Poland, Hungary or perhaps Romania.
