This 8oz Herringbone Hickory Stripe is a test we have done, playing around with indigo overdying (which we were pretty pleased how it turned out)

We are off to Japan for two weeks on holiday, starting in Tokyo then taking a road trip to Kanazawa, then onto Takayama, taking in the scenery on the way, then back to Tokyo.

Lynne has a full itinerary laid out - and when I say full, I mean FULL!

So expect lots of photos of our trip...

My favourite and first piece - unfortunately a bit snug fit, but I will get into it again - the IHSH-176 - love this shirt, the weight, style, everything about it

First day finished by a nightcap at Ginza Music Bar, a cool little bar, with a DJ playing Marvin Gaye etc

Crew wearing a selection of new STF short sleeve summer shirts

first day (sort off, we arrived in early morning, and managed to get into the hotel room 6 hours early!) then straight out to explore a bit of Ginza...

@dirtyframer printed Lookbooks are being sent out with orders from tomorrow - we wanted to offer a printed and digital version this season, as we know some people miss out on the printed version if they don't place an order while we have them in stock.

@EdH good spot - you saw my deliberate mistake!

@michael.rose0107 not at the moment, we are waiting for more fabric to arrive (as used everything on the rerun of the blazers and new jackets - coming soon!)

But they are in the plan to rerun.

@RoxRocks86 wow, that looks a great set up. I did try a wheel - but that was a looooong time ago (I mean a years and years ago when they first came out) - they weren't that good then! But look a lot better now, so will have to have a look at trying one soon!

@RoxRocks86 unfortunately never had the opportunity to have a racing rig, or even a wheel! But let me know if/when you do go for it - I do have to get at least a wheel at some point, so any reviews would be great!

@nurunuru these are original size dims. On the first run I only made M, L, XL to see how they were received. On the second run I expanded the sizing and added S and XXL.

On the next run, I am adding a Long version in all the sizes as well

@nurunuru soon, very soon - in production at the moment, and I will be chasing them up today!

Last night in Ginza area, popped out to get some night street photography - so much going on, I almost got lost concentrating on taking pics than where I was walking - iphone maps to the rescue! Again, needed more nights in Tokyo to do more of this!

Last day/night in Japan - so packing in as much as we can, first up to the Senso-ji temple in Asakusa

Then popped down to Kappabashi, renowned for their knive shops (picked up something for our son Jack, who’s moving into his first house very soon)!

Then off to Jimbocho area, which is known for its vintage books/magazines - literally every other shop! Could have spent all day in just one of those shops! Next time I will need to build some time to explore more. But did pick up some vintage cinema promos - love the typography on these.

A day of neon, old Nintendo’s, lovely fruit and cream sandwiches, very bright toys and dog shops everywhere!
