Samurai Belt L201HS
I got a Samurai belt from IN in Osaka. I took some pics here in comparison to my Sugar Cane garrison belt. The SC belt is broken-in now, much softer and darker… with stains. I should clean and oil/wax it soon, but I like the unevenness of the stains. The samurai belt is bigger and [...]

The patch features a cartoon [...]
Samurai Geisha GA0510LXX (1 month)
Pictures post inital soak, and 1 month of wear. Yes, these are actually girl’s jeans. But it is only the lower rise and pink selvedge line which could be considered feminine. In reality they’re more masculine than the Nudie Regular Ralf. The denim is a coarse 16oz (standard jeans usually max out at 14.5oz). Impressions [...]
