@ReverendGlasseye I am wearing one as I type this. 

The sleeves aren't all baggy, and aren't too tight either. Don't expect ultra high quality softness, but I like mine a lot. 

Fit is fairly relaxed, and a touch on the longer side when compared to Japanese brands and models. 

Digging that McQueen!

I'm looking for a high quality short sleeve sweatshirt. Like Strke Gold or Stevenson Overall level.

I have a Todd Snyder, it's awesome but I wish it were softer. 

Anyone know of any?

Dang I like those Full Nelsons.

I have small hips and lower body in general bet I could make them work. 

Nice collection @Broark. 

I really like the selvedge line on the Boncoura.

Sapporo Base had all of them last I checked. 

I added the white 710's to my cart numerous times but couldn't pull the trigger. I think they look good but don't feel I would wear them enough. 

Flat Head

Knickerbocker

Resolute 710

Red Wing 8845

Not the typical SuFu style but I like these. Little bit of heel slip, but they pull on with a nice thud and I think they are the right size. Cool looking box too.

Nice I'm thinking I'll go with just hand washing it cold and hanging it to dry then. 

Kind of goes both ways though. 

Wearing steel toes for work pretty much leaves me with no desire what so ever to wear a boot when not at a job site. Trying to get over that though.

Went with From Japan. Rakuten was having a small sale too so that worked out. Should get them tomorrow, hope they fit. Fedex shipping was super expensive though. 

I have another question. Has anyone here ever hand washed a high density and high quality rayon shirt before? It's a Sun Surf. 

I have cold washed by hand a lower quality rayon shirt and had no problems. But I was nervous doing that with a high quality one and something going wrong.

no prizes for guessing i guess, but the wild child in tan

I have the tan one but have been carrying the black one for about two years now.

4 months, 2 washes. Dried once in a machine.

Cat got in the last shot so I added some Instagram flair to it. Any guesses as to what wallet I carry 

The dude served in the military and would pilot fights onto bases.

Wow thanks guys, appreciate all of the responses. 

Having to jump through these hoops makes me nervous on picking the right size.

RW JP don't ship outside of JP themselves 

Guess I'll have to proxy.

Any recommendations from anyone? Never done that before. Thanks. 

Has anyone here ever ordered off Red Wing Japan, or from Red Wing in a differing country of their own?

Really want a pair of 8845's, and they are only available in my size (and an exclusive) in Japan. 

Yeah that's when I send an offer back higher than what I have it listed for.

I ran my pair through the dryer and didn't notice much shrinking at all. I warm washed with the washing machine but used the "low heat" option on the dryer though.

They look good @julian-wolf nice photos.

Wonder what year those were modeled after. Inseam shrank a ton but waist and thighs barely moved (in comparison to Pioneer denim).

Gonna be a winner in a few more months. 

@1fookntitefd only have experience with the 14.5 and 16 oz fabrics. 

The 16 oz shrinks less.
