Sydney's sloppy seconds have never appealed to us down here. We brew our own coffee, make our own shoes, and have been known to succeed romantically without the help of our northward cousin. But this here is a Sydney lunch worth cutting! Puf 'n' Stuff is a stalwart of the vintage and secondhand drag of Sydney's Crown Street, where purveyors of quality pre-worn wearables go head to head in the battle of the cowboy leather ankle boot. Hungry for a new challenge, Puf 'n' Stuff planted a small protuberance of their enterprise on Melbourne's equivalent drag, bringing with it an exemplary array of man shirts, matching linen suits, furs, and flirty dresses.

You can rest assured that if you did in fact buy a head-to-toe outfit from these perfectly spaced and colour-coded racks then you wouldn't, as most second-hand and recyled clothing shops would have you, end up looking like the spawn of the bird lady from Mary Poppins and the smoking-poo-hurling crack addict on the number 86 tram. You will look like the dapper young lady or gentleman that your Grandma has always seen in you since she got cataracts, dressed to the nines and ready to hit the chess club. Anyone who thinks chess isn't cool has obviously never met Jerry.
