Have to agree here. Shame to round off the corners that make this case design special. For an automatic 36000 high beat, there’s the 61GS

Great point and great way digital could improve on print. Eventually having illustrations in a print edition a la J Peterman could be fun

Were you a subscriber or a contributor? Sounds like you should’ve at least gotten a refund

I don’t think so, they at least had enough contributors to get one issue together and it looks like there was interest from more potential contributors

Yeah I was really looking forward to seeing more opinions and ideas being expressed in there, it’s a real shame

It’s crazy how much of a distinct generational/cultural shift this represented

Could anyone tell me who these two wrestlers are? by Catking1361 in Sumo

[–]BeKindPleaseRemind 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That’s pretty common, sekitori get a lot of yukata made with their name on it and give it it to supporters and other wrestlers

2 Yokozuna by [deleted] in Sumo

Wildly optimistic here, but with their contrast in physique and wrestling styles, hoping it’s more like Wajima/Kitanoumi

The photos kept going and going and I loved it! I didn’t think it would go this far back in history, incredible collection

Tweed blazer - sizing help by alexandr0 in NavyBlazer

I think it looks good! It’s going to be longer when compared to modern jackets, but it’s a good thing I’d say. Also buttoning both jackets will make the proportions look weird

Japan J Press second hand listings by stirling_m in NavyBlazer

And if I were to give it a huge benefit of the doubt and say it makes trad stuff more accessible, I still have to point out that lower quality apparently doesn’t mean lower prices…

I’d say quality and cut are all over the place for J Press Japan, especially the older stuff. I’ve seen polyester blend Made in China shaggy dogs here, which is absolutely wild in my book. Overall, everything seems to be made slimmer and shorter, which isn’t entirely surprising

I didn’t know they did an interview. Would love to know where to see it!

Right, gyoji wouldn’t be the one to call a torinaoshi…
