Shitamachi body plain Tee'sDuck Type III
So I had one of those heart to heart talks with my wallet upon reading this. It was a tense conversation and some things were said which I won't repeat here. Feelings were hurt. One of us threw a bottle. But we came to an agreement…...
Yet another occasion where those late night, back-alley activities are deemed necessary to put a little extra coin in your pocket, eh?
Nah, well, maybe. That wallet of mine is a stingy bastard.

I'm having some discussions with Haraki at the moment re: the new hoodies. He has changed the cut from the old ones and we think that they may not suit the Western physique. We are trying to work out how we alter the cut, but it may well be that I decide not do bring these ones over to the west. I

I'm not sure exactly what aspects of the cut are the issue however I think as long as the have a thick ribbed waistband and long thick cuffs and loose around the body like the Buzz Rickson, which are of course modelled on 40's US Navy sweatshirts, I don't see the issue. What's the issue?

I have had more of the IHSW-01 returned because they did not fit as the customer wished than anything else ever. I think that the new hoodies are based on the same cut. If so I am not going to waste my money stocking them, because believe me I'll ship them and then they will get returned. I'll end up paying for the shipping, refunding the customer and sitting on stock that I cant shift….

If they are based on the new cut then you are of course right to reject the same mistake twice. But perhaps research why customers sent them back exactly, ie where was the fit out; shoulders, chest, length and send feedback to Nippon. Kaizen.

Old hoody Length 70cm Chest 118cm Sleeve 61cm Cuff 9cm Elbow 19cm
New hoody Length 69cm Chest 112cm Sleeve 63cm Cuff 8.5cm Elbow 17cmThose measurements look much better (44 is still a bit over-the-top…), but the old one used to have a 46.5 inch chest?
