  1. We lived next door at the beginning of the war. A little to the south, in the Zell im Wiesenthal area. We often came to Freiburg. Very beautiful places.
  2. Didn't have a problem of such kind with DHL. Probably it is country related.
  3. Do they mark shipping value low?
  4. I bought 0105 a year ago from Clever. There was some increase in price at Bears at the moment for overseas orders, if my memory serves well, do not know about current situation though. I checked my old emails, Rogue and Celluloid also had it at local price a year ago. Size 36 which is my regular size worked well. Measurements at Clever were ok. 0105 loosens well after wash. https://clever-id.com/?pid=148705207 if you want check it.
  5. If it is a requirement, it is clearly violated here and there. Ah, if only on this forum... 🙃
  6. Blocked? Hmmm... probably a certain supreme power sparing me from some awful danger I'm in for chasing another obviously unnecessary pair of jeans.... I already can't decide if I need the SC 1946 after I get rid of some SC pairs I bought earlier to some relief. I need to finally start learning to settle for what I need, while rejecting what I want 🙂
  7. That's what I did again couple of days ago... no success. Moreover, if I send a message to rebuilt.jp IG account, a red icon with a cross appears:
  8. Lofgrens are very difficult to put on at first. For the first few months I couldn't do it without the plastic bag. But each time it got easier and easier, now it's ok.
  9. The site opens with no problems... Unfortunately there is no my size (36), would have taken it at once 🙃
  10. Yes. That's what I'm guessing, with my experience and understanding of leathers being incomparably less than yours. 🙂
  11. I've heard people use vinegar to clean toilets. So if one walks on shit, or if the shoes are shitty, there's definitely a correlation.
  12. As I mentioned above, I used Renapur before Saphir. Renapur is completely absorbing, no residue, no matter how much I apply, it seems impossible to cross the line. That's why I didn't spare Saphir either. Although, as I think, I applied a small amount anyway. Next time I will try to put even less.... 🙃
  13. I am using Renapur Leather Balsam.
  14. Perhaps I was expecting miracles and they didn't happen? On the pairs of shoes I tried, I got white residue on the creases after some usage. Maybe I applied more than I should have.
  15. I've used Saphir a couple of times recently (mainly due to other people's opinions) and was generally not happy with the results. I used to use a German made Renapur for years, for different leathers, and was always happy with it. At some point, I learnt that Goto-san (White Kloud) uses Renapour. That basically closed the topic for me. Renapur rules.
  16. Cutting off one of the heels can work too.
  17. Rather, despite sufu membership 2 recent years... 😉
  18. As the year came to an end, I saw that I was selling faster than I was buying. I wondered: what do I want to buy next year? I can't think of anything. And there doesn't seem to be anything more to sell. Am I approaching a magical balance and realisation of happiness? No way, I know I'm not. Some sneaky urge to buy will come most surely.🙄
  19. I loved my Chord DAC. It effortlessly elevated the listening experience to new height when configured with any other components. The only reason I sold it was the switch to the integral Naim system, all in one box.
  20. Chord makes great DACs. I had one previously, it was amazing. Hope your new toy works well within your set.
  21. You can try fromjapan.co.jp. or page.auctions.yahoo.co.jp. But, I would support Maynard's recommendation to follow Iron Heart forum.
  22. The Clash' London Calling album was released this day 44 years ago.
  23. Not long ago I was selecting type 3 jacket and decided on Fullcount. Very nice jacket. Also was considering Sugar Cane, TCB, orSlow, Boncoura, etc. As per now FC item seem to be enough to satisfy my need for type 3, maybe I will think about getting another from WH when they will release one.
