Could these stains feasibly be removed?
They are moleskin. You’ll notice the care tag says dry clean only. Unfortunately, soaking is not possible! (I do occasionally get items that have stains off eBay, and more than half the time I’m able to get them out.)

Is corduroy supposed to be this fragile?
Is this after washing? Is the surface rubbed down or just discolored?

Is corduroy supposed to be this fragile?
Have you washed them? Sometimes impressions come out when the cord is reset in the wash.

Looking for T shirts

LL Bean hunting vest year
I have wondered about this tag myself. I assume it is the last Made in USA tag they had so 21st century makes sense.

buttons
If you want to replace all the buttons on a shirt, you can get a shirt at a thrift that has buttons you like and strip them. I’ve learned that trying to find similar replacements for a missing button (unless it’s a modern shirt with bog standard plain white or clear buttons) is very tough.

hammies shorts any experience?
I’m surprised and delighted to see a brand based around recreating 70s shorts. I’m curious as well to hear if they’re decent quality. I have the originals of the shorts in the photo and while the inseam is a bit challenging, I love them.

looking for a minimalist/thin wallet
I did a little bit of research on a small wallet a few years ago and ended up with Taylor Stitch’s minimalist wallet. I think I’ve been using it for 2.5 years and it’s holding up well, and it is a much smaller profile than my old wallets.

garment care/oxiclean use
The worst stains that I can identify that I cannot get out: sweat (collar) and anti-perspirant. It’s gross to end up with something with these anyway, but I used to try it on a $4 shirt.

garment care/oxiclean use
This isn’t going to help you if you don’t want to wash them, but I wait until I have a bunch of stuff I want to oxiclean, soak them in it in the washer (4-5 scoops), then do a gentle/cold wash after letting them soak for 24 hours and agitating a little bit during that time
