We arrived in Osaka and jumped onto the bullet train down to Okayama, then onto Kojima where we are staying for two night

Our view from the hotel looking out to the Inland Sea

Out for dinner at a Yakiniku restaurant before an early night to make up for the 45 minutes of sleep I had on the plane!

Today we are heading out to the Kojima store and to our screen printing factory

I have to go to Japan if only  for supper. That looks delicious. 

The view isn't bad either.

Iron Heart Kojima

[Alex]

A quick stroll around Jeans Street with some bizarrely named stores

[Alex]

Lunch at a kaisen sushi restaurant where the dishes are delivered on automated shinkansens

[Alex]

Then a quick screen printing lesson from Sarina's husband who runs the screen printing factory where our (and loads of other brands) tees are printed.

Now for a beer while @Chesson edits some photos taken on a good camera to upload….

Oi @Chesson working not shirking, lad. Although it is Sunday so a nice bit of lelaxing sounds in order.

Is that the made to order OGL bag you’re literally fronting @Alex ?

Thank you Giles. I’ve been admiring it on IG.

[Alex]

The maxi size was the original sample, and we tweaked it to be a little smaller as we thought it more fitting for the demand in our market. Available from Sonder Supplies soon

[Chesson]

Some more from Iron Heart Kojima…

Alex being given a job of great responsibility…"Oi, do something useful, hold the hairdryer".....

[Alex]

The ink wasn’t going to dry itself.
Oh wait
