Can anyone recommend some good thrift stores in NYC or even NJ?

Also found some awesome shoes, real leather uppers and sole, made in Spain. This makes me hate retail prices

Everything looks in good shape, except the shoes.

I was just about to ask if anybody was into "thrifting". I plan on checking out some shops here in
L.A. in hope of finding something nice.

I like this quite a bit actually. Simple, yet effective!

I was considering the same jacket....just gotta man up and purchase.

i've been eyeing this jacket as well.  wish i could try it on and see how it fits.  i'm going to be responsible though and buy textbooks instead.  the price of the jacket is probably equal to all my books this semester.

I shouldn't of passed on that jacket during 20% off

Fellas, i know some of you own some Clark's Weaver boots. I just bought some in brown. I was wondering if any of you had any pics of them being worn.

Im not second guessing my purchase, im just impatient (waiting for them to ship).

pics?

Not sure if it's the lighting but the brown pants with the grey sweater vest and blazer is kind of off to me. Overall fit is nice though, something about the color just isn't working.

Hmmm...that's interesting. They're all very neutral colors but it works quite well in my mind. To each their own I suppose...

If one does not own a suit what would be the next best thing to wear to an interview?

 

[niidawg3]

depends on the job you are interviewing for ...

 

[maldonado]

bare minimum - a nice long sleeve button up, slacks, dress shoes.

 

[aquagrape2345]

Thanks guys for the help and timely response
