    Price difference in Japan?

    That seemed strange to me about Buyee needing a personal and private password for paypal.

    Price difference in Japan?

    I've been there three times since early 2020 and have also never had passport info shared like you mentioned. I only have my passport scanned when checking into hotels and when entering/leaving the country. I have never tracked purchases or bother keeping receipts now since no one ever asks...

    Iron Heart Nagoya

    I bought an IH shirt at Hinoya in Osaka on my first trip. It was much cheaper buying from them than IH international but you are correct, they can't sell online, just from their brick and mortar shops.

    Iron Heart Nagoya

    I was very surprised. I knew buying here in Japan would be cheaper than buying online since the Yen has dropped but I did not think it would be that much cheaper.

    Iron Heart Nagoya

    I'm in Nagoya and went to the Iron Heart shop a couple hours ago. Really nice little shop and buying from an Iron Heart shop instead of mail ordering to Canada is much less. Paid about $275 CAD for a pair if 14oz 777 jeans that are $470 from Iron Heart International. Figured I would post a...

    Great idea. I have some hide samples from Aero I can use to practice.

    Need help. Where can I get a button properly reattached to leather jacket.

    I called an old school furrier/tailer here and they don't repair leather anymore and did not want to do it. Is there a specific needle size and thread gauge and type I need? I am unsure if the local fabric shop has what I would need.

    Need help. Where can I get a button properly reattached to leather jacket.

    Thanks Mike. I wondered if it must be possible to be done by hand so that is good to know. The thing is, when I explain that a shank needs to be wound like a post, under the button, most have no idea what I'm talking about and have no clue how to do that. I'll still have to send the jacket...

    Need help. Where can I get a button properly reattached to leather jacket.

    I need some help and want to find out where I can send a jacket to get a button reattached. I caught one of the cuff buttons of a Rainbow Country jacket on the edge of my car door and it pretty much tore it off the jacket. The thread did not pull through the leather at all but the button shank...

    Wesco Boot Thread.

    Wrong heel strike. I ordered a Quabaug heel since they are not as tall as a Vibram heel strike. I even emailed them frequently to make sure. Baker did their part. Wesco dropped the ball. Stitching is kind of sloppy also.

    Wesco Boot Thread.

    Mine showed up today after waiting over a year and half. Wesco f@*ked things up so the boots will have to go back to Bakers. Probably for a refund. What an utter disappointment. Why did Bakers not even check the boots against the order to make sure they were correct? This could have saved...

    Wesco Boot Thread.

    I ordered black horsehide lace to toe job masters Jan 7, 2022. I just received my ship notice from Baker's today. Two days ago I emailed Baker's saying to cancel my order and refund me if my boots have not shipped from Wesco yet. At time of order it was around a 14 week wait.

    SOLD White's 300 Oxford Brown Roughout Vibram Crepe Sole US 8 D

    For Sale is a like-new, pair of White's 300 Oxfords in brown roughout. I waited forever for these and they are just a bit wide in the heel for me so I have to let them go. Worn around the house and lightly broken in. The half slip makes these a real bugger to break in and most of that hard work...

    FS: The Flat Head - FSD-32 Lined Western Shirt Jacket in Dark Brown 1.3mm Deerskin sz 42 $725

    Very nice. Wish this was a medium. I have tried these deerskin shirts twice now in the past couple years at The Flat Head Osaka shop. So nice and yes, someone should buy this. Great shirt and great price.
