@Giles Appreciate that! Thank you. How very Japanese to be embarrassed over such a thing, haha. I'm looking forward to seeing him again in Hachioji in November. Keep the pictures coming

I know this might sound kind of far-fetched, but do you ever think there’s the possibility that there could be a forum member trip to Japan where perhaps we would get to tour some of the mills and see how the denim is actually made in person and actually get to go to Iron Heart’s headquarters? I think that would be pretty special. I think it would be pretty fun and interesting.
That, or a subset of that is not out of the question for 2027. Alex may possibly have a plan

@Giles This would undoubtedly influence my planned 2027 itineraries, so keep us posted please!

Nice phat bundle of wabby CPO's too! Still holding out for a chore jacket re-run before I invest in that fabric, though

Wow, thank you for that info! I certainly hope that comes to fruition, I would definitely want to be part of that. And your comment begs the question so what are your priorities in a watch?

Are menthol Marlboros still legally available in Japan?
