Thrift Store Gems 2022


Recommended Posts

I work at a boutique-y type thrift store. Earlier today, we got a big shipment of hockey jerseys, and it had the grail to end all grails in it:

Needless to say, I bought it. It was only $45 after my employee discount.  There were also a bunch of 90s and Y2K jerseys in there that I didn't snag, but really, really wanted to.

I was like a kid in a candy store going through that box. There were a bunch of other 90s jerseys (Mainly Blackhawks, Rangers, and Habs) and fake Edge jerseys in the shipment too, but those didn't feel as special as these bad boys.

Update: I bought the Stars jersey too. I also found this in another box and, of course, got it for myself:

VTG 90's CCM Washington Capitals NHL Jersey Blue... - Depop

It's been a good week for 90s NHL jerseys, but a bad week for my wallet!

My absolute favorite Capitals jersey.  I am a sucker for the blue-black-bronze era Caps.

Congratulations, that BK jersey wins the thread. 

IN JANUARY.

(Seriously, though, congrats)

It's like watching the hellish undead creakily shuffling their way out of the flames of a liposuction clinic dumpster fire.

Story B: Red Wings go undefeated and score 100 goals in every game. They also beat a team comprised of Godzilla, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln, 2 Power Rangers and Betty White. Oh, and they played in the middle of Iraq on a military base. In the sand. With no ice. Santa gave them special sand-skates that allowed them to play in shorts and t-shirts in 115 degree weather. Jesus, Zeus and Buddha watched from the sidelines and ate cotton candy.

Recently found a European Football Club to start rooting for in Sunderland (Yes, I watched the Netflix docuseries). I decided to get a jersey and wound up finding a Lorik Cana 2009-10 Premier League kit for $10 on eBay. I'm lead to believe this is a replica because the on-field kits had an overlapping crewneck collar and the cuff striping was cut off by the middle white sleeve stripe extending all the way down the the end of the sleeve.

Technically not a thrift store find as it was an eBay purchase but I’m happy to finally have this one in my collection after being on the hunt for quite a few years! I know it’s not widely loved but for whatever reason I’ve always been a fan of it.

Chiming back in again to annoy everyone with yet another one of my '90s jersey finds. This one was off Depop, not a physical thrift store, so take that as you will.

When I was about 5 years old, my dad bought me a fisherman jersey off eBay that I wore all the time. I loved that thing to death, and ever since I grew out of it, I've been on the hunt for another. I finally found a fisherman jersey in my size that wasn't a million dollars, and I jumped all over it. This jersey is my personal holy grail, and I'm so glad to finally have one.

Here's a pretty cool one - last month, I bought 14 jerseys from a former NFL player's unpaid storage locker. This was the highlight of the lot:

Wow, that’s quite the score! What were the other jerseys if you don’t mind me asking?

Another box of jerseys floated its way into my thrift store the other day. I restrained myself from buying much, but here were the highlights:

While the Blues jersey is the only one I ended up buying, the Stanley Cup Championship jersey was an oddity. Giant, screenprinted crest, an NHL logo on the waist, a screenprinted Molson logo on the sleeve, and a stitched '94' on the back. All on a Kings template.

 

In non-thrift-store related news, I bought a Mighty Ducks CCM jersey for $30 and an Adidas Ilya Sorokin jersey for $35 off Depop.

Sorry for spamming so much in this thread, I just don't know any other community that would appreciate these pickups as much as I do!
