I need to let go some stuff...
Chest 44 to 46, long sleeves (27") and 38-42" waist. BIN seems reasonable for a 1920s tweed suit of such a large size.

Too bad they are way too short for me. I don't think even false cuffs would work. Otherwise I would surely bid on them.
A short while ago I purchased this NOS 1930s cap on Ebay:
I asked the seller to send it to JohnnyJ so he could stretch it and install a leather sweatband. Imagine my surprise when Johnny told me that the cap had arrived, but was a different size and already had a half leather...

Did a Lounger win this? I was outbid and would have...
Here's a gem for you smaller guys. Wish it was my size.

I thought it would be nice to see how beautiful some boots can age with the proper care and wear. I have a pair of Red Wing 9012 Beckmans in Chestnut Featherstone. I personally think the color looked a bit bland when new. Here's the original color:
Here they are after two years of regular...
On German Ebay. I would certainly bid on it if it was a 7! Seems to be in pristine condition. Tall straight crown, center dent. 1930s or possibly even 1920s?

I have a question regarding shoe care and making dried out leather of vintage shoes supple and wearable again. Many of you guys probably use Saphir Renovateur conditioner and a cream polish. But what about museum grade leather preserver like Pecard's or Elephant Leather Preserver? They are...
Here's what you've been looking for: 1930s cap toes made from brown alligator leather in a whopping size 14!!! They seem to be quite narrow, though.

This Schott pea coat is made from grey 32oz. melton wool (75 % wool/25 % nylon and other fibers). One left inside chest pocket, two handwarmer pockets, vented back and nylon quilted lining, ten military anchor buttons. It has light signs of wear and is in perfectly wearable condition.
Tag...
Not cheap, but can somebody please pick this one up, anyway? Seller listed it as 1920s. Inside the waistband is written "patented April 27, 1926", so this probably refers to the construction of the waistband and not to the date of manufacture.
The shoulders are somewhat narrow and the...
I didn't get a response in the "Dating a hat" thread. I guess most of the regular Loungers hardly ever look at the stickies. I am hoping for some information from the experienced hat collectors here.
I have this hat from a British maker called "Streamline super". It has a Union tag by the...
Here‘s your chance to grab a unique, one of a kind leather jacket from one of the world‘s premier leather jacket makers. There is not a single jacket in the world like this and there never will be. AERO cannot replicate this even if they wanted to.
The 1930s Half Belt is a timeless, classic...
Thanks to Mario I was recently able to acquire this incredible German 1930s sportcoat from the Cinetex guys in Berlin. This is a rare beast indeed. I never expected to find a 1930s belted back in my size. But this one is not only special because of its size. First, it's a German belted back...
If you have a weak spot for loud, unusual over-the-calf socks by one of the world's finest sock makers (Bresciani), you should check out the DandyStore: http://www.dandystore.fr/boutique/index.php/hosiery.html. Price reduction is nearly 50% at the moment. Act now. They tend to sell out fast...
Seller claims this unusual flat cap is made from a thin flexible straw. Not sure about this, though. I have a similar vintage cap, made in Japan, and I honestly have no idea what material it's made of. I don't think it's straw, looks more like some early man-made material to me. Perhaps someone...
Here's something for the bigger guys. A three button SB glen plaid sport coat made June 15, 1954. And best of all, it's a size 46Lwith 2" to let out the sleeves. Great condition, no vent and fully lined...
