@alexxedge Look forward to it. Need some more recommendations for out next trip.

@Nik @pechelman might have a point about Kyoto. That said, if you’re not sure if you’ll return to Japan, personally I thought it was not to be missed. I was going to suggest spending one night minimum there (we stayed at ACE Hotel), because you really want to do it justice if you are going to go.

I'll be in Japan from 18-22 Nov. I'm free on the night of 18th in Tokyo before heading for Kojim to meet up with @Alex

I am in Tokyo for some days. Did anyone of you visit the IH store in Hachioji?

Someone more forum savvy than me will probably pop a link in but there is a thread on here on the shop and how to get there etc etc

They won't I am afraid, they don't stock the 777.

All cuts that we now sell other than the 634/461/463 were designed by IHUK, not IHJP. IHJP stock some 666 and 555 in all stores, but no 777s and 888s. They have just started to take some 777/888 into Nagoya and Osaka, but I don't think they have any in Hachioji at the moment.

During our recent trip to Japan we've been to a couple of denim shops. It was interesting to see how the Japanese wear denim, really inspiring. Most of them wear straight leg or even wide jeans. Therefore I can understand that IH in Japan doesn't stock much of the slim or slim-tapered jeans. (Regarding denim jackets Type I and Type II seems to be much more popular then Type III).

@Alex thanks a lot Alex, you were right. They did not have any 777 or 555 in the store. But the staff was very friendly and helpful and the beautiful store was worth the visit. They also had some special Japanese IH T-Shirts but most of the items in the store were in XS,S or seldom in M. I was lucky to get a wonderful deck vest in L and after wearing the jacket for two days I have to admit that I like this jacket a lot.
