This past Saturday (11/10), FABSCRAP Customization Dept dropped new custom made pieces; now available for purchase exclusively through Men Of Thrift.

Select pieces were curated by creative director Alfonso Powell (known as AP) and then repurposed to a high-fashion aesthetic by fashion designer Royal.

Atlanta, GA native and fashion designer, Rob, known for his talent agency, Daties Lounge, was in attendance customizing a denim jacket of his own.

A representative for Staten Island, NY based fashion designer Joepreme also stopped by to gift FABSCRAP Customization Dept a one-of-a-kind spray-painted image of Elvis Presley on leather fabric — more pieces are coming soon for purchase.

This upcoming Saturday (11/16), FABSCRAP Customization Dept will be closed, but will reopen on Saturday (11/23) so mark your calendars and preset your alarms.

As fashion journalists, we write about things that we love and think you like too. Men of Thrift often has affiliate partnerships, and may generate some revenue from links at no cost to you.

Since you’re here…

…we have a small favor to ask. Men Of Thrift's independent, fashion journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe our perspective matters – because it might well be your perspective, too.

If everyone who reads our reporting, who likes it, helps fund it, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $1, you can support Men Of Thrift – and it only takes a minute. Thank you.
