      Has anyone been  to Japan in August? Looking at climate diagrams it appears to be super hot. Is that true and is it a bearable dry heat or humid? Tokyo, Osama and Kyoto would be some of the destinations.

        I've been early September, it is humid AF!

        November weather is a lot nicer.

          HELLO  I NEED HELP ABOUT SIZING THE LEE 23OZ
          Im worried about the stretch…can the waist go up a few cm? up to sizes more?
          Im getting a size 30 but im more like a 31 or 32 waist.
          Is that impossible?
          thanks everyone!

            I would say it's possible for the denim to go up a size.  No idea on the real waist size of a brand new 30".  Assuming they are a legitimate 30 I would expect them to be uncomfortable in the waist for at least a few weeks to a month before the desired stretch is obtained.  Personally I'd be more concerned with what the thigh measurement is compared to your other jeans.  You want to be sure you can get your legs in them before even attempting to button up.

              Thanks a lot man for your response!
              Now I got the measures compared and thighs wont be a problem, Im more concerned about the waist on this 23oz hard denim type.

                If the thighs aren't a problem and you think the waist would be button-able, just tight, to begin with then I would personally go for it.  I'm assuming you are getting a good deal on the jeans if you are going for a size not typically your norm?  Another assumption is that the pair you are getting are not unsanforized/loomstate…..  If so then I definitely do not recommend purchasing as you will lose considerable waist circumference when they touch water.

                  Thanks for the reply. Unfortunately we don't have a choice of the month we're going, it would be August. Humidity and heat is something I can't take though…

                      Are Google's translations of the Japanese forum user "ranks" reliable? Is there an explanation of them on the forum anywhere? I am curious.

                          @Shoreman Those are the new 634S-18's. If you click on that image it'll take you through to both cuts but it's the 634 i'm wearing.

                              There was an explanation years ago, I think.  Sadly, I don't remember what it is, though.

                              All that's important is that we think you're special. 😃

                                  Google had it as Apprentice Boss, so not bad by Google. I guess I'm wondering if there was a story behind them, how and when they were established.

                                    So, when I started the Forum, I thought that it would be amazing if we got 100 members…and I thought that having one of those members posting over 500 posts was beyond comprehension....

                                    I came up with this member/post progression

                                    Then, you lot started posting in a frequency that was simply amazing, and 500 posts/member was blitzed, so I hastily came up with 2 more levels…..

                                        Excellent. Thanks for digging that out.

                                        I tried to explain the whole thing to an old school friend the other day. She couldn't quite grasp the level of boundless obsessive behaviour. That's saying something as she spends all her time and money on LARP…
