[Ishmael]

All the leather outerwear fans out there will be very interested in the newest edition of Clutch Magazine (v.13). Under the theme of "Look Good in Leather", this volume features a wide array of vintage and currently in production leather outerwear. While it's all in Japanese, there are a lot of great pics of some fantastic leather wear.

Here is a good looking new jacket from Heller's Cafe featured in the current edition.

Looks good, Ishmael.

I'd order a copy, but those Japanese language sites are just impenetrable to me:eeek:

What's going on with the collar on that jacket?

Why not have a go at Google Translate or something like that. It may help if the basics are there, you just cut from the Japanese site and paste to the translator. Some translations come out looking a bit odd but if you persevere you will probably get there in the end.
I used it to contact a Japanese video/game store for a special edition game only released in Japan And I got it in the end. Questions [to them]need to be short, basic and spelt 100% correct.

Hi John. Yes I could do that. In fact I do use it, and get some hilarious results.

However, when in comes to "terms & conditions" pages, I want things to be fairly concise and understandable.

Many web pages, these days, are multilanguage. It reflects the site owners desire to be international in their outlook.

The Japanese sites really only address their local market (even to the extent of only producing small sizes to suit the locals!), and that is their perogative, so I leave them alone.

The few things I have got from Japan, I got through the kind services of a proxy buyer

You can buy through Amazon.jp pretty easily, and safely, but the postage charges are very high.

I'll try to do some scans at some point...

Nothing with that, I say!
