Dumpster Dived Burberry Jacket



Conspicuous Minimalism: the non-ownership purchase of material goods flaunted as a token of moral and intellectual superiority. 


Well who-da-thunk-it? No sooner had I put the last post up when a chance to flaunt my new found 'moral and intellectual superiority' with a bit of dumpster-dived booty. Behold the Burberry Waxed Cotton jacket [£500 to you sir] or free from a posh blokes rubbish! All I need now is a pair of red strides.

More soon

    Does that mean you'll be adopting a poncy, upper crust accent to go with the jacket as well?

    Thanks for stopping by

    I was delighted perfect for beating on the Pheasant shoot, I've gotten a lot of job-site clothes out of peoples recycling but never anything outdoorsy

    It will be if and when I get it to stop honking! I may just cut the lining out.

    Thats a rad find! I guess a jacket of that price would look stupid out in the bush! A well worn version not a problem!! I bought two on eBay for $40!!! Great jackets.

Please feel free to leave comments. I really enjoy hearing what readers think. The rules are the same as round my dinner table:

You're welcome to disagree, life would be way too boring if we all agreed with each other and we'd never learn anything.
I like to think that we're all grown up enough to argue every last point, right down to the bone, without bearing a grudge afterwards.



Come on in the waters lovely
