Goody two shoes.
Benedetti White Bucks, handsewn in NYC, perfect size.
(20 bucks at 10 ft single in B'lyn)


The best Sperry's I've ever found.
(Not 20 bucks..)

World War II 501 XX.
Note the missing arcuate stitching, unique to this period.
Cut offs, size 27. My wife will kill in these come summer in Italy.
I will kill myself over the fact that she now has a pair, and I don't.
Eff you cee kay.

I loves Brooklyn Fleamarket.
It's a gizmo that prints those little sticky tape thingys, way cool.

Look at the way they play with focuses at around 6.15 on the bikes.
Good heavens, this is beautiful!

353 Bleecker is open for business.
(Like a block down from Freemans new store)



PLING!
You won this item...


I know, I've posted this before, but the seller (and the item) disappeared from ebay as mysteriously as Art Garfunkels career.
A month later, it's back and BAM! Yours truly swipes it.
Ain't nothin' to it kids.
