    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    @gtransistor et al. Great discussion, thanks for the info on the sanjuros. I'm a fairly asian build so I find that the Japanese brands actually fit my arms vs always having to get things tailored. I'll see if I can try one on. As I'm not the tallest guy the longer length sometimes is the...

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    Does anyone have a Sanjuro border coat? How is it and how easy was it to incorporate it into fits. I like that it’s like a longer cardigan but wondering if it will look out of place.

    How long will the Canadian Outlet last? I’m trying to decide if I should jump on the Napoli plain (herringbone). It seems like a pretty good workhorse Navy Suit. Any comments on this one from those who own it?

    While we’re on the topic of the backpacks... has anybody had issues with the material on the back of the straps ripping or wearing out? It seems very fine for a ballistic pack.

    If the price on SSense goes down and they still have stock just call them. They’ll price protect for 10 days. I’ve done it and no problem. Thanks for the heads up on the Spruce sale. I impulse purchased the Abasi Desert shirt.

    Does anyone have sizing advice on the Noragis. I’m looking at the current seasons chambray. I wear a size 2 in the Lhamo and the Achse.

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    Anyone own a recent 20L backpack? I'm wondering if the bottom is suede only or if it's ballistic covered with suede. It seems like a really nice piece but where I live we get rain and snow and was concerned about durability if the bottom is suede only.

    On the subject of pants, what's the max number of rolls you guys would do on EG pants before your hem them. I just got a pair of fatigues that need 2-3 rolls.

    Good deal on Navy CP x Robert Geller Chelseas size 40 for $307 CAD. Final sale though.

    I'm usually a 32 in chinos. I hadn't noticed the chinos before it was posted but I ordered a size 2. Ssense seems to make things final sale around 65% off so I bought em with that insurance if they don't fit. Hopefully they do. Great price.

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    @Chaconne .So Ssense had a sale... I now own an Achse. Gotta say that it's a really great piece. I got the damaged olive chino. I'm with you that I prefer the classic vs peerless as I intent to wear this thing out. There's a simple VSVM Scout on the sleeve but it's very subtle. I sized to...

    So you guys weren't kidding when you said that Chelseas are narrow. I got a pair in last night and I can feel my toes can feel the sides of the boots. I don't think I'd want to size up cause my ankle would slip. I bought the same size I wear for combats and Achilles. Do these loosen up...

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    I'm looking to add a Visvim jacket to my collection. Does anyone have experience with the Asche and or Reserves? I'm wondering what you guys think of these pieces? How are they are far as sizing? I'm a 2 in the Lhamo. I was thinking that the Asche may be more versatile but they both look...

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    @ZanderRosen I got my Lhamo from SSense. They have a good selection of sizes. Most other places the Lhamo popped up and sold out very quickly. The color is pretty accurate on the website. @g Transistor. Yeah if I've learned one thing about Japanese clothing it's that you have to ask...

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    Well I took the plunge and ordered the indigo overdye Lhamo from this season. It arrived and I am thoroughly impressed. I've been reading a few articles about Hiroki so I thought it's give it a go. Definitely something special here. I went with the 2 as recommended. I found the body looser...

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    One more question about the lhamo. Are the armholes very high or tight? I usually wear size small but have found that in some Japanese brands that I don't have any room in the armhole (armpit area) ie. Blue Blue Japan Shirts.

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    Thanks. 2=small helps to guide my sizing. Measurements are usually a good guide but I find it always helps to ask people who have size experience.

    *** Visvim thread: Dissertation on a Japanese Holy Spirit ***

    Does anyone have experience with this season's Lhamo shirt? Is it still recommended to size up? I can't try on locally but would assume that the silhouette would look better with some drape vs snug.
