        @Aetas:

        Would love to see them weaving!
        Have you made some videos in the mills @Alex ?

        Look on my Instagram stories, they are too short to upload to Vimeo

                Jet lag is kicking my arse - I was up at 0315 yesterday and 0500 today. Went for a nice walk before we kicked things off today

                    At the Kohima store briefly this morning. You can see the scale of our (IHUK) growth and how much these guys are having to adapt to hold our product before it ships out.

                            Fun to see these pics. Are the mills weaving exclusively for IH?

                                Cool. Looks like the Sakamoto machine was making slub denim?

                                    Does that box contains the FW 2021 pieces? Is there a Military serge in size M in black? If so, I would like to have it.

                                        I assumed you were being tongue-in-cheek about the samples/archives [mention]Alex [/mention] , but in case you’re not, L is my shirt and type III size these days, and I’d love to take any/all that off their hands [emoji23]

                                        In all seriousness, thank you for all the amazing process pics from the factories. Enjoy your trip!

                                          Thursday was a pretty uneventful day photo wise, we had meetings all day and got an early night before a long day Friday

                                            Friday was pretty epic. We woke up at 0300, left the hotel just before 0400 and headed north east to Niigata. The drive took about 10 hours, with a few pitstops along the way for 'toilet' (read 'Haraki needs a cigarette') breaks.

                                            I tried to get some shots of the landscape along the way. Remind yourself of a couple of things:
                                            1. Landscapes always look much more impressive to the naked eye than they do shot on a phone (or even camera) driving at 80mph on a motorway!
                                            2. I am not a good photographer.

                                            Bearing these in mind, hopefully you get a sense of how spectacular parts of Japan are..
