Those boots were the last pair. I can't even remember the name of the store. I was so lost in a daze at all the stores there. I can't even imagine what Tokyo/Osaka must be like. They were 85,000 yen.

Ayn, there's no way I could wear 29 in 811's. I couldn't even pull the 30's up. The 31's were VERY snug and took a lot of pulling to button. These are tagged 2 sizes larger. I normally wear a size 30, therefore, size 32 in the 811's would be perfect.

The belt looks like this....

i dont believe the laces are leather

here's a shot of the sole. The bottom of the sole say's "made in Lusitania". I found this surprising thinking they were made in Italy. The inside of the boot say's "Made in EU" and "Rino" below that. Can you make any sense of it?

It is interesting as it really isn't a captoe but there is some reinforcement under the toe that gives the illusion of a captoe. I believe the soles are double welted.

found these ndc boots during my recent visit to japan.

all bought in nagoya last week.

Eternal 811 (maybe wrong size, currently up on supermarket....doh!)

I bought these in Nagoya Japan just yesterday. The sales guy and I agreed size 33 would be best as these are super slim, however, after trying them on again in the hotel room they're a tad roomier then I was hoping. Dont you just hate that? Right now they fit a perfect 30 inch waist, but i have a feeling they're going to stretch more than that. Anyway, I'm looking to size down 1 or 2.

They are brand new, only worn maybe an hour in my hotel room and they have the red eternal tab. These are one wash. I'll post measurements and pics tomorrow once I'm back in Seattle.

SOLD

waist: 30"

upper thigh: 11.5"

inseam: 33"

Remember, these are tagged 2 larger then they actually are.

but anyway, went to blackbird with a friend cuz i finally convinced him to try on some nicer jeans than his diesels, he left with ragnbones and acne jeans.

aww yes, blackbird....i spent some of my hard earned over time cash on a nom de guerre jacket last weekend. that place is seriously hard on my cash flow

Yeah, happy birthday moy, looks great!

Does anyone own a Sugar Cane belt? I'm wondering if I should got with my natural waist or size up as recommended.
