The first order should have left Japan this week. So give it 1-2 weeks till they put it up on their page.
Jeans, shirts and some other stuff

Today st the fruit farm. Not much fruits at the moment. Wearing my s510xx24oz. Place was raining before and muddy. Jeans got dirty and do the wash today.

This is Durian fruit.

@Seul:

Can't wait for DC4 to put the Samurais up… Whether I will be able to limit myself to just browsing is the question, of course...

Hear hear…

[madmonday]

interesting fruit you have there Stan.

[STAN]

It is our favorite fruit here and it is quite expensive in some area of the town.  Be warn,  if you ever try this fruit "Durian"  don't drink alcohol after  that,  it's bad for health.

[arcanum]

King of all fruits, yes !!!!

[madmonday]

sounds exotic & dangerous.  must look it up.  thanks for the info Stan

What does it do?..

@Seul:

You die

[Omega Man]

Really?  Didn't know that.
Need a machete to hack it in halves and scoop out the yellow/white and creamy stuff.  Never tried it though.  It is an "acquired" taste.

[madmonday]

you die?

really?

wowzer's i am about 1/3 alchol so i will never be able to even taste the fruit    i would die once it touched my lips.

& i do apologize for the massive derailment.  Stan your jeans do look good on you (as they always do)

[Chris]

You don't die.

The fruit has a high sulphur content, which inhibits the activity of aldehyde dehydrogenase, causing a significant reduction in the body's ability to clear toxins.  Basically, you feel as bad as durian smells.  Well, maybe not quite as bad as durian smells.  It's pretty damn foul.

[jacoavlu]

the effect is quite similar to that of disulfiram (Antabuse) which is a daily prescription medicine (not very commonly) used to treat alcoholism. the drug doesn't really do anything to treat the disease but what it does do is make you feel really unpleasant (the disulfiram-ethanol reaction) if you drink alcohol, thus acting as a deterrent

[ronaldlsh]

Durians are seriously a damn delicious fruit. It's also a hot fave in Singapore.

What I know is that not many westerners like this fruit. Most of them just think that durians stink like hell. Haha.

[madmonday]

On the hunt for that stinky sweet fruit. Should be easy to locate in certain parts of town. Have to love ny you can find everything you need and want and be invisible while doing it

[ronaldlsh]

Is it me or is it true that SAMs fade slower than IH?

[Max Power]

It's you. At least normal IH fade much slower in my experience, 23 oz and 25 oz seem to fade quite quick. Samurai and  Flat Head are some of the fastest and most contrasted fading brands (in general, depends on the denim though).

[ronaldlsh]

Haha, it feels like my 0500xx takes forever to see fades.. I must have not abuse than hard enough compared to my busters…

@Max:

23 oz and 25 oz seem to fade quite quick.

Couldn't agree less. 634S'es and Busters faded quickly… The 25 oz'es seem to be much more stubborn!..

[Max Power]

what? Most 25 oz pairs show fades after few days of wear…Example: nicols pair with only weekend wear. Georgeels pair after 6 weeks. And many more...
