I usually stick to Euro brands but I'd love to try something different. Thing is, I don't really know anything about Japanese denim.. could someone direct me to a thread/site where I could learn?

hahaha, I guess I was wondering where to begin since there's a zillion brands, cuts, etc that I know nothing about. Maybe I'll just pick up a pair of sugarcanes, I was going to do that a few months ago and then History preservation raised their prices

Kind of vague discussion with useful info. interspersed, but I found these threads along with the one you're currently in have a good bit of info. on the bigger labels and styles. You could always venture over to superfuture if you dare.

just get the canes. they won't fail you. there's a gaggle on eBait. but there's a certain someone that could probably do you good for cheaper.

Tangerine, what wallet did you go with? Also, jon, you decided to go with the Red Moon, instead of the "replica" like mine? What colour did you go with, and just out of curiosity, what made you take the plunge to go with the real deal, something I could not bring myself to do. (But I did just get out of school, and had surgery, so I have no job until June 16 as per doc's orders)

Also, as per your request xcoldricex, for feedback, I think it may be easy too, for people to head over to superfuture.com/supermarket and see the feedback. I started a thread there, as you know, and I think it has most who recieved something in it, or at least enough.
I will say again, the process was made very easy and convenient with xcoldrice, even as I was changig my mind by the minute.

HEWSINATOR, I went with this one, posted earlier in this thread. It sort of pained me to settle for less than the real deal, but I can't handle Red Moon's prices right now, either.
How did the suntanning work out, or is it still in progress?

I went with the natural. I'm more excited about color transformation than the default color...ha! I'm pretty rough on my stuff so I'm expecting a lot of it down the road. Supposedly it will eventually become a deep brown. I've seen a few examples and they're beautiful. What made me take the plunge? Stupidity. No, honestly I'm an "artist", so I dropped about a week's pay on this wallet. It's not like I have lots of cash. However, I figure this will last me forever unless it's misplaced or stolen. I felt guilty at first but now I'm just insanely excited. I'll post in that thread and the one on here (maybe with pics) once I get my LW hoodie and the wallet.

The suntanning in still in progress, but I would recomend it for you guys with the sdSD colour. It did make it go from "pink" to a very light tan, and now it matches my braid better.
I am so jelous of you geting the real thing jonglover, use it with pride
