    Holy Grail of vintage suits

    HBK pretty much hit the bullseye! Context is everything, so I guess I should provide some. I ran into this suit (and the kid that owns it) at a vintage clothing exchange/sale in downtown Los Angeles. The event was ran by collectors and enthusiasts, and the promotion was strictly word of mouth...

    Holy Grail of vintage suits

    That wasn't the case. It wasn't about expecting praise at all. LA has a huge vintage clothing enthusiast scene, encompassing multiple sub-niches. Most of us know each other, or at least know of each other. When we get together or encounter each other here and there, we get to do what anybody...

    Rare Rockabilly slacks

    If those actually do sell for $1,200, I think we may see a sudden rash of pistol pants hit ebay.

    Holy Grail of vintage suits

    This actually not uncommon for American slacks. I have trousers from the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s with this detail.

    Holy Grail of vintage suits

    That's not quite what I'm getting at, but fairly close enough. And as Yeti is alluding too, they have already left years ago.

    Holy Grail of vintage suits

    "Wives with Beehives" coming to TLC

    I know some of these folks. The ironic thing is that there isn't a beehive in sight! Reality show puns keep getting worse and worse.

    A friend of mine joked with me that it was probably the suit that some desperate high schooler bought for prom.... "with a suit this killer, no girl can turn me down!"

    Too Old for a Short Leather Jacket?

    BK is right. Jacket on the left is short. Jacket on the right is. . . just a jacket.

    Too Old for a Short Leather Jacket?

    What has the world come to when an A-2 is considered a 'short' jacket?!?
