          **that varsiety is the shit & i can understand why Ayumi fell in love with it

          It is now Ayumi's.  Will said he would give it to her as a prezzie….

                BK.  It would be on my back now, but Will had made a standard XL for our sizing discussions yesterday.  He is making me one longer in the arms, I'll have it very soon.  I went with the side pockets option.  Plan is, I beat the living crap out of before I go to Japan in November, Will really wants Haraki to see an aged one, not sure why, as Haraki is totally 100% in love with the oil pull.  In fact, so in love that we will be making a biker type fanny pack in it too (at Chapman), oh and a Type III with pockets…...

                Sounds like the aero/IH link-up is going to yield some great stuff.  Can't wait to see more of the western and the Type III sounds pretty exciting too.

                  No offence meant.  My post obviously didn't came out like I meant it to be.  Sometimes it's a bit difficult to write something in foreign language, so it doesn't sound blunt.

                  I've been a biker about 30 years now and a patchholder almost since the beginning. So I do know something about bikers and that scene, also around the globe.
                  Biker culture and scene is Japan is pretty much different from it's western manifestation (dunno if this is correct term).

                  So, in short what I meant to utter is that if biker fanny packs are big hits in the land of the rising sun, they might not be that big hit in (at least biker community) here in western hemispere.  So, my humble opinion ist that one should be carefull when stocking these.

                  just my 1€ cents worth.

                  ps. One that rides a bike/harley/whatever on 2 wheels is not outright a biker.  It takes a bit more than that.

                    one of the coolest bags I have ever seen and it's a "fanny pack".  just sling it of the shoulders though and it's no longer a fanny pack

                      Looks cool, but the construction is seriously shite.  Made my people who make clothes and think they can make bags.  That is why we are using a specialist bag maker to make ours…..

                            you kidding (I know you don't and right so)  I had seen that parts of the construction can def be done better, especially with the asked price tag of this one in mind…

                                    injun, i forget that all on the forum are not native english speakers & sometimes read into things too much.  seems that was the case above.

                                    sorry my male-alternative-model-biker buddy  😠

                                      I might have read twice my first post and then, maybe, explain myself a bit better…and now another Carlsberg.
