I suppose the discussion of that purchase will take place on the Japanese thread. Although TBF, all the cast characters on this thread are on that one.
I’ve got to say the idea of all of us transplanting and seamlessly continuing a conversation in another thread the moment a specific word/maker is mentioned is quite amusing

I'm on so many threads I always forget where I mentioned one thing and not another.

So for an individual not subscribed to the same threads and reading our seamless conversations, they probably think we are talking in code or just crazy.

Time for us to create our own exclusive thread... perhaps the Asian Appreciation Society? There aren’t any funny connotations with a name like that right?

I'm just going to drop in for a quick tangent. If anyone is interested, I've posted my brand new in box Oct Tenth dark grey lazyman (with hollowed last shoetrees) for sale if anyone wants to try Xibao. It's good stuff, just the instep is Enzo Bonafe levels of high. Edit: Oh it's size UK8.5E on the Pu last for posterity.

Ok, fine. How about Asian Shoe Society. How do we feel about acronyms?

Good acronym and very appropriate. Like a nicely shaped pair of shoes, I often find myself staring at a nicely shaped A.S.S.
