Damn, it's too bad I didn't have any books to sell back this semester, that goretex MA-1 would be mine if I did. Reading the TOJ thread makes me wish I was a trust fund baby...

^ make friends with a chinese grad student in your class and you can get the xeroxed text for like $15. (0) do that for your whole class schedule and you can get the whole TOJ wardrobe (0)

PK: not sure yet man, Coming out with a saddle leather, hand sewn smallish scout bag for a DLSR+creative extras and it will be a little bit more than a couple bills. Maybe a few choices in tanned colors as well, like red, blue, green, etc, it's Italian saddle leather, I think 2.5-3mm thick, so about 6-8 oz leather, times several layers in some places. It will be good for the wanderer types.

I will make some sort of notebook/messenger bag too, but I think Fok's design is gonna cover that.

Additionally, I'm gonna get an iPad when it's released in my country and I have some ideas about how I want use mine, so a leather multi-case is inevitable...

It's either that or I stop drinking alcohol... decisions, decisions.

I have a feeling that it might be worth it though, then I'll just go to the bar and steeze the **** out of everyone wearing my TOJ

I don't know dude. I know alchohol turns to piss and is a bad investment overall, but I'm a nasty alcoholic as well, so you're on your own. Always a Korean genetics tangling with first world problems and TOJ arts n crafts concept, in my case.

Here's todays work; the TOJ MA-1 in goretex. The small group of them will all be finished imminently. For now, enjoy some pics of the first one out. dizzhizz is wearing this one because it was a sz 50, he's a true 48 and it's a little big on him... it fits slim, a lot like the TOJ0 and 1, a tiny bit more forgiving in the sleeves, but overall, a very slim silhouette.

(I love the back dart detail)



Hold on, i've been seeing peacoats, Ma-1s etc. Does that mean some of the discontinued stuff isn't fully discontinued?

I really want a winter varsity if you're still gonna make them. and a peacoat. and a harrington.

and the upcoming trench.

+1, that MA-1 looks ******* great; fits slimmer than I thought. I completely overlooked this when orders were open.
