I know it's a long 'o', but f you write it bu-roo-gu, it makes it sound like it is pronounced like the 'oo' in kangaroo, which it isn't, it's a long natural 'o'. So it's more like 'bu-roh-gu'...

does this means scanlation on the way??
Would love to see some close up pics of Suga-san's shoes.... Nishinomiya City is adjacent to Kobe City. One day I should make a shoe pilgrimage to the Kansai area....il Vagabondo by Motoji Suga His workshop based in nishinomiya-city, hyogo japan. http://bloom.ko-co.jp/e205685.html http://www.showaen-life.com/dandyism.
I'm there about once a month for work reasons, and Nishinomiya is exactly where I have to go... I may pop in in September. There's also an apparently very good Italian-trained tailor I want to visit in Kobe.
We could kickstart nutcracker's Men's Ex/Last/Leon/whathaveyou translation project. I would pitch in as Japanese style magazines seem to be all about the content and helping others, while the likes of GQ and Men's Health are filled with bits, pieces and ads shoddily disguised as articles. Then again, I can't read Kanji so I may just as wrong about these *** mags.
Honestly, I find the recent issues a bit lackluster in terms of shoe-stuffs.
Have you seen the new Scansnap SV600? Amazing stuff, but apparently delayed `til Fall. Once I get hold of that, I can start scanning my old issues of LAST (I have 2 complete sets, don`t ask me why) without taking them apart
GQ Japan isn`t so bad either..... the articles are more in line with LEON/MEN`S EX than the US-version GQ...
