    That’s an interesting screen printing set up. Here in the US printers use a circular press to print shirts. I’ve never seen one like this before. Seems like it would take longer

      Last night we went for Okonomiyaki, Modanyaki,  Negiyaki and something with a load of sticky yam on the top which was not particularly appetising to the western palette (no pics). All three of us were rocking our c/o Shazams too.

      Today Haraki led the way to Kuroki mills on his Harley and we showed Limbro around the mill. More pics on that to follow from @Chesson 

      Now to Tokyo…..

                    Love the garage and that it’s set up as a casual place to just hang out.

                                      @Alex same photo as the question re: the gloves. That shoulder bag isn't on the website. What's the story on that?

                                        The shoulder bag is a Japan-exclusive that the young shop staff designed! We are trying to get some for here,

                                          Thanks for the promising reply @Alex . Sure hope so on both counts as that would make it a most fruitful Japan trip!  😎 😎
