      Discovering the existence of a phenomenal piece from before my time always makes my heart skip a beat. Then, with time, patience, growing friendships and connections in our community, maybe just maybe you find that special piece. It truly makes that score so incredibly special and is one of the best parts of this hobby.

        @popvulture yes, that's exactly what I'm talking about. @Clint_D is responsible for a third of my collection at this point. And as @Mizmazzle stated, the homies along the way help guide us to finding things we seek. Looking at you @tody & @Daniel-San 👀! This community takes care of itself.

          @Oaktavia the only downside I’ve found to building a collection of rare and hard earned pieces is that it becomes next to impossible to find things in your closet to let go when looking to raise funds for the next “holy shit” grail piece that presents itself!

            It took my some time to 'get' the whole idea of hunting down grail pieces, but I think I fully understood the assignment now.
            I check the japanese proxy sites as well as ebay and the likes way too often, but when I come across something that is truly unique, i try to think of someone who might like it.
            IHV-07 in M, IHM-15 in XL, IHM-22 in XL and IH-528 in XXXL are just some of the things i recently saw - these pieces are out there!

              This is the 21oz N1 Deck Jacket. Someone on here needs to snag this!

                  what i found during my endeavours is that is much easier to search for tops and outerwear. it's not a lot of work to dig up old measurements through archive.org from the old IHUK website.
                  bottoms on the other hand may be hemmed or even tapered, and you might run into difficulties with a language barrier. i'm always amazed by the 40in waist trousers in JP, only to find them having an inseam of 27in 😂

                    I absolutely can't stand corporate jargon and it is rampant where I work. So today I made a "Corporate JARgon" jar and started things off by putting a couple dollars in. I added some fine print that says "Proceeds go to High School Wrestling Team" and a homie came by and put a $10 in it! It started as a callout for people saying stupid office things and turned into a fundraiser 🙂

                      Brilliant.....Congrats.

                      I used to work for a tech company working out of Princeton, NJ. Once a year, we had to do forecasts for the following fiscal year. On one occasion, there was an F-Bomb jar, proceeds of which went to one of the sales admins who was expecting a baby.

                      When it was my turn to present, I made sure she got a fuck ton of cash from me..........

                        Extra clever that the word in question was the direct cause of the pregnancy.
