                ^ glad it cheered you up man. I am still wondering and worrying. And seeing as that it is 5pm where giles is and 1 or 2 am where Haraki-San lives, I am gonna have to just keep waiting and keep hoping.

                            I have a lot of enquiries as to the availability of the FBJ-101 since I posted pics of mine recently.  Free Bee is one of the 3 brands under the umbrella of Works Inc, Iron Heart and Triple Works being the other 2.

                            So, I hounded Haraki, and he has found a few hiding in a cupboard somewhere.  He will let me have a list of availability shortly.  Here are some images:

                            Mine, 3 years wear, 3 washes.  I only wear this in the summer, so does not get serious wear.

                            its coming up on a year last i was hoping to get this jacket….

                            😞

                            o well. but i thought i would bump for the new members to get a glance at a beautiful piece of history! 🙂

                                  Would anyone have interest in my FBJ-101?

                                  It's the one that G owned that is pictured above.

                                  I love the jacket, I'm just a little too tall for it.

                                      I simply adore this jacket.  Wore one for years despite it being at least one size too small….

                                        Well it's a least one size too big for me, unless I pad it out  8). It's amazing, not only as a part of Works Inc history but as a jacket in and of itself. Now I just need a Type II 🙂

                                          I really think there should be an IH-ZB collab. If nothing else for old times rhyming namesake.

                                          Fat dudes need good clothes too.
