A lucky Redditor shared a serious wardrobe makeover scored at their local thrift store, and the finds will make you gasp.

"I got $99 but a thrift ain't one," the poster captions their series of photos

The haul included a number of like-new sneakers. "Jordan 3 'Infared' [sic] and Nike Air Max 97 'Triple White'," the Redditor captions one image. They also found several other pairs of Nike Air Max, a vintage Fred Perry jacket, a sweatshirt from a BMW/Mini Cooper x Ice Cream collaboration, a Polo travel bag, and a pair of Gucci loafers, among other items. 

The shoe scores alone are enough to make anyone do a double-take. Vintage Jordans will set you back hundreds of dollars, especially in good condition. New Nike Air Max shoes start at $160. And the Gucci loafers? A new pair similar to the ones pictured cost $960

The Ice Cream x BMW/Mini hoodie is a particularly cool find too, as it was part of a limited-edition sustainable collection aimed at drawing attention to the conservation and advocacy work of Polar Bears International. It was only available to purchase through a NTWRK live episode. 

Scores like this are not uncommon at thrift stores. One Redditor recently found a pair of Christian Louboutin flats for less than the price of a cup of coffee. Another thrifter recently found a vintage pair of Doc Martens at a 90% discount.
