    Looking for Info About Porter's Limited Edition "Tanker Document Case"

    Hello, I'm looking for some photos and specifications of Porter's Tanker Document Case from the very limited "Tanker Book Original Model" series. Most crucial are the photos, which seem to be virtually non-existent on the web. A photo of how this item looks like when it's open would be...

    Canopy Diameter of this Japanese Umbrella

    Hi @GBR, I already did that before opening this discussion. I used Google Translate and saw that the canopy diameter isn't mentioned, so I came here with the hopes of finding someone who's familiar with this umbrella and could specify its diameter when opened. So, the question still stands...

    Canopy Diameter of this Japanese Umbrella

    Hello, Could anyone interpret from this page what is the diameter of this umbrella when its canopy is open? Sadly, I don't read Japanese. It's a collaboration between Yoshida & Co's Porter label and Japanese umbrella maker Maehara Koei Shoten. Thank you very much!

    Japanese Proxy Service That Supports Phone Orders

    Hello, I'm really not sure this is proper section to ask this, but I couldn't find somewhere else more appropriate so here it goes. Sorry in advance. ZenMarket has been my Japan proxy service of choice for quite a while now, they're fabulous, but they don't do phone orders - they allow for...

    Looking for a Down Jacket

    Duvetica looks nice. How's Moorer? Some of their stuff looks great.

    Looking for a Down Jacket

    Thanks, I see. Indeed, what I find problematic with those brands is their overly prominent logos; I would like to avoid that. Moreover, those companies would usually not offer a jacket constructed from materials I would consider smart enough for urban environments (matte fabrics, metal zippers...

    Looking for a Down Jacket

    Hi @norcaltransplant, thanks for the input. That's a good point there. I'll soften my criteria: technical fabrics such as nylon are OK, as long as they are not too "techy" and/or shiny looking. P. S. - What fabrics were used for down garment construction in the past? It's a decades-old product...

    Looking for a Down Jacket

    norcaltransplat, when you're saying "knit", you're still referring to down-filled garments? If not, then my answer is "puffer". And that RL piece is exactly the kind of stuff I'm aiming for... If only it was made with wool or cotton and had a nicer, metal zipper.

    Looking for a Down Jacket

    Thanks for the reply! I currently live in Tel Aviv, Israel... Not a lot of options here, but I do travel often. And besides, as you may very well know, in this day and age I have virtual access to any online shop, anywhere. Sizing might be tricky but it's a risk I'll have to take.

    Looking for a Down Jacket

    Hi everyone, I'm looking for what I would consider the ideal down jacket. It has to tick the following boxes: It has to be solid, as I'm going to wear it a lot, almost like a uniform, I hope. It has to be of the "puffer" kind, with those familiar horizontal seams. I don't want to exterior...

    Patrick Shoes

    Hi Everyone, A recent discovery I had is the footwear-sportswear brand "Patrick". I find the brand's structure fascinating: apparently, it's a decades-old French footwear brand, with a quite limited presence in its native markets - it seems like it's past its glory days, similar to other...

    wjk Sizes

    Hi everyone, I'm really looking forward to buying what would be my first item from wjk. As it is always with Japanese brand, sizes could get tricky. Generally, I wear medium to large, but my wardrobe is almost entirely composed of clothes that come from Western brands - I barely have any...

    Anyone Familiar with AKM?

    Hi! I recently discovered this Japanese brand - I believe this is its official homepage - and immediately fell in love with some of its offerings (it makes what I believe is the perfect B-3 jacket). Is anyone familiar with the brand and can attest to its quality (or lack of)? Any background...

I have been looking for the brand's official website, in order to view its complete collection - but didn't find one. In this day and age, it's weird, but maybe I'm doing something...
