  1. @winston, my size 1 should be arriving tomorrow and i'll see how it fits before deciding which to keep... from what i heard, most people prefer the lt indigo, so it shouldn't be too difficult to find yourself the indigo

    thanks man, i love the light indigo but have a similar porter classic. i think the dark collar on indigo is good too.

  2. @winston, i got the damaged lt indigo in size 2 (i thought i ordered the size 1 at the trunk show, but apparently i remembered wrong) ... and am feeling a bit loose for my liking, so i'm gonna switch to a size 1... ; i normally wear size 2 on lhamo shirts, academia blazer etc... but size 1 in 101 jkt and all the gore-tex jkt...

    Thanks DD. Seems like a 2 would be perfect for me - having a lot of trouble finding one though. Shame you didn't get Indigo else I would have taken it off your hands!

  3. Grizzly's coming in the following colours - Pink (Salmon)/ Sand, Dark Brown / Dark Brown, Navy / Navy and Brown / Natural, also dropping will be more Skagway, Kiefers, Flynts and Foleys from what I know.

    Shameless self plug but I need a sale - Visvim Sanjuro Kimono FIL Exclusive size 2: http://supertalk.sup...njuro-kimono-2/

    yeah fit pics might persuade a bid from me.........

  4. fuckin proxy/resellers posting in here?!?

    hey vinny, show the love. this man gives it and is probably trying to amend the balance sheet. trust me, it's all straight.

  5. @vinneus, have u picked up ur pair of the new virgil yet? i'm picking up mine tomorrow, as well as the ss coverall damaged

    please post a fit pic

    have ordered a 2 and hoping they fit regular to big

  6. vinneus - do you think its possible to get a fit pic of you wearing the noragi with no shirt underneath?

    It's not a fucking dressing gown!

    It does look good Vinneus but I can't get over the short sleeves. Same with Sanjuro.....I know thats what the lhamo is all about and I love my lhamo but the detail on the sanjuro would be amazing with long sleeves.

  7. ...not even a close. haha. and dont quote next time, just ask. can u edit that post? no one needs to see my stupid face that much! haha

    Sorry! Props for the fit pic though. All works.

  8. ...just bumming around the house. fit is unreal, like a second skin. i totally understand where all the fit confusion came from. I must say to keep the peace, we were all right. the body is very lofty, thats why we were all confused by the measurements. Also when "master" said it runs slim, he was right, feeling the pinch in the arm holes and sleeves. thet are very slim, this is important because linen stretches, alot. And it also controls the fit of this piece.... it would be just a short robe if it didnt have the slim arm holes and sleeves. i feel like i could have combined the body of a sz1 and the arms of a size 3. haha so sz 2 is perfect! Hope that helps.

    Can you hook the sleeves together or too tight?

  9. omg these are so nice how does one buy them i assume it's very difficult

    one raids wells fargo for several bags of sand, one throws it at yahoo jp, having had a wild guess at sizing and IF you pull a four leafed clover out of your arse....you'll shortly be walking round in boots made from unicorn hair. marvellous.

  10. ^^ I threw a set of thick insoles in mine and now they fit perfectly. Still tracking down a pair from this season though.

    you'll get there man, good things come to those who wait!

  11. Just got home today....dark brown grizzly's. They are a thing of joy and beauty. Sized down by a half and they fit perfectly!!

    If I knew how to upload a pic I would but I'm a luddite.

    Def getting the red leather now next season !

  12. i wear a 10 in the virgil and got a 9.5 in the grizz i have a little under a thumbs length so i could of done a 10 and well, and that probly would have been a thumb to thumb and a half which i personally would not mind,

    the real question is how big is your thumb?

  13. GENTS..... May i call a moratorium on this. We're all on here for appreciation and to spread love.

    We love what Hiroki does, some of us are fanatical, some of us have been with this brand for many years, others are newer but have undoubtable devotion and knowledge. Without trying to sound too much like a twit, we're all different - so sizes are gonna be a personal issue. When we give information its to help but you have to take your own shape (and wallet) in to consideration and call it what it is (unless you live near a FIL and can walk in) a gamble .

    For most of us Visvim sizing is pretty indeterminate: the excellent "dissertation in sizing dissemination" piss take from a couple of season back thread was spot on.

    So to the matter in hand...for me lhamo's fit small and the arms aren't wide at all but for someone who's stockier with less of a bicep (and christ know's i don't have guns.....) maybe it's a perfect fit. The only Noragi (linen) I've seen is roomier than my lhamo. And the grizzlys look to be on the big side - mine are still in transit though so certainly fucking hope they are. And there we have it ...... the Visvim roulette wheel, and lets be honest we all know what we got in to before we sat at the table.

    Now I'm off for a large brandy and cigar ( in my lanten smoking jacket).

    Goodnight!

  14. NORAGI

    I just asked human behavior , concept shop, and had my boy ask FIL, i got three different size measurements FUCK MY LIFE !!!

    im going with what my boy at union said, he said they run small i ordered a 4, and will let you guys know once i get it, it will be perfect or for sale

    You did the right thing - def small. And yes light brown will be a luxsic version too but expect large sizes too be limited.

  15. tried on both the sanjuro and noragi today... didn't like either one... too japanism..... i much prefer the lhamo shirt especially the indigo dye series...

    any sizing information?
