Home for Christmas. Obligatory trip to the suburban New Jersey shopping malls.

If anyone has seen @Kasi tell him he left his shorts in Unit 2.

I made it to the shop yesterday. Using Google maps makes the journey painless, except for the fact that it takes almost an hour and a half to get there from west Tokyo.

Here you can see the location of the bus stop at Hachioji station.

And you can follow along as the bus drives.

I can confirm that they don’t do tax free.

A few pics.

@GardenState Yes, I'm home in New Jersey for the holidays.

@steelworker At least not on a weekday morning when I was there.

My annual trip to suburban NJ shopping malls during the holiday season.

@AdamJ thanks. It doesn’t seem to happen every time I open the black box. I’m trying to figure out how I can consistently reproduce it.

When I get to this screen on my iPhone I can’t get rid of the black box. I had to close the browser and open a new one.

SOLD

The IHSH-407 is a 12oz Slubby Heavy Flannel western shirt exclusive to Japan. The work shirt version is an international release.

I bought this shirt a few weeks ago while in Japan. When I got home, I gave it an initial wash and unfortunately it shrunk much more than I expected. It's now too small for me.

It's never been worn, was washed a single time on the delicate cycle at 30deg, and line dried.

It's a Size Medium and the measurements in centimeters before the wash were

• Shoulders: 44.5
• Length: 71.75
• P2P: 55.0
• Waist 52.0
• Opening: 52.5
• Sleeve: 64.75
• Sleeve opening: 11.0

The measurements after the wash are

• Shoulders: 43.5
• Length: 69.0
• P2P: 54.5
• Waist 50.5
• Opening: 51.5
• Sleeve: 63.0
• Sleeve opening: 11.0

Prices include shipping with tracking and are the amount I expect to receive. You can use either Paypal Friends and Family or work out how much the currency conversion and transaction costs are. The shirt will be shipped from Germany and will include tracking.

• Germany: 210 Euro
• EU: 220 Euro
• Norway, Switzerland, UK: 230 Euro
• USA and Canada: 260 Euro
• Rest of World: 270 Euro

@tody It doesn’t matter how you look. You’ll be camouflaged. Nobody will see you.

How much do these self-dyed clothes bleed when washing them?

I’m in Heathrow dead tired waiting for my flight. Once again, thanks to @Alex , @Giles , @Madame-Buttonfly, and the IH crew for a wonderful weekend. See you all soon
