The dude in the first pic has nice duckdiggers...

and I liked the dude in the third pic better when he had cuts in his shaved head.

I spend too much time on Hinoya.

[iamstarwars]

I really like that first jacket.

[blm14]

OT but why are all the hinoya models always looking at the ground in their photos?

[denihilist]

That black Tanker Jacket is tits.

Feigning humility… I wonder if they love their jobs?

[jubei]

I know I would.

And re: the looking down at the ground... how many of our WAYWT'ers are looking down at the ground? If you think about it, their job is pretty much just WAYWT...

once again, envious.

[gimmegimme]

A bit off topic...but I just read one of Gibson's books...he mentions the Buzz Rickson jacket throughout the whole book.

Does anyone know which came first...his collabo with BR...or if he got the collabo because he endorsed them so much?

Good luck with that, hes notoriously elusive.

[HumanError]

Elusive, yes. But once spotted, actually quite approachable. Read through the forum at williamgibsonbook.com. Gibsonoids relate their personal encounters.

Kiya, enough!! Throw that shit up on your website. I need me a pair of those suede M-43's, size 10.5, brah.

All the footwear only goes up to 9.5US, but they run half a size big.

[HumanError]

Kiya, thanks for the superquick response. But even at an additional half size, that still puts me one half size away from what I wear. Damn.

[Wesley Pipes]

I am in love with the second jacket.

Head Porter x Buzz Rickson x William Gibson Bags

Head Porter, Japan's most famous bag company comes together with Buzz Rickson (Sugar Cane) and William Gibson to bring us this new collection of bags. This may be Head Porter's most ambitious project yet...

The fabrics used for the collection is nylon originally developed for military bulletproof vests, which is 5 times stronger

than regular nylon fabric, and genuine horse leather made for Buzz Rickson's A-2 jackets.

Both bags come with a Porter MAG light as a zipper pull, various inner hidden pockets, gusseted outer pockets, removable shoulder straps, and more.

You can't ask for a better built or more well designed bag from any company.

There is also a William Gibson party coming up at Self Edge on November 9th with the man himself, more information to follow.

Both the shoulder bag and the laptop bag (book bag) are now available in-store and via the online store in extremely limited quantities. Check the online store for more photos and specs on the bags:
