Augusta National Green Jacket: $139,349
Who better than a sports journalist to notice a green blazer among a heap of used suit jackets in a Toronto thrift store? Once he pulled the jacket from the pile, he instantly noticed the Augusta National Golf Club logo patch on the pocket. The only person who can wear these jackets today are the current Master’s champions.
Eventually, a British golf journalist by the name of Dominic Pedler convinced the other journalist to sell him the jacket with “an offer he couldn’t refuse.” In April 2017, the jacket went up for auction and the final bid was $139,349.
