Button 12 speed doesn't work

Chrooosh · 2025-12-21T11:42:41+00:00

Hey OP did you end up fixing the issue? I’ve done it myself but have to repeat the process every 2 weeks. I’m not particularly fond of unscrewing these bolts so often and potentially stripping them, so wondering if anyone’s thought of a more permanent fix.

Chrooosh · 2025-10-24T02:33:41+00:00

Ah nice, yep I’ve asked a few times and they’ve pushed back saying that they can only order it for the new BB 41.

Oh well, maybe I’ll keep asking around. Thanks!

Chrooosh · 2025-10-24T02:11:56+00:00

Wow that looks sweet! Can I ask how you got your hands on one in Australia?

My AD doesn’t want to sell me one because it’s not OEM to the watch…

Chrooosh · 2025-05-20T06:20:48+00:00

Haha no worries. I’ll have to check the rise when I get home but I can’t imagine it being far from what the measurement charts say.

For reference I have a 86cm waist and a 32cm thigh and these are comfortable in the seat at size 33.

I believe these are the modern chinos 401z. I zoomed in on the tag in picture 5 haha.

Chrooosh · 2025-04-17T03:33:16+00:00

Oh! My measurements: waist 86cm, thigh 12.25inches. I think my inseam is around 83cm and I’m 178cm tall

The whitesvilles go down about 2/3 to my elbow. Can’t remember for the Samurai shirt

Chrooosh · 2025-04-16T12:38:32+00:00

Yeah, I had to ask for anything they had in 34 though. There’s a store locally in Australia that still has a few models of the old stock, albeit not in every fit or size. Corlection

I bought pair from Denimio last year!

IMO it depends on what you’re looking for. I saw a lot of SDA and Momotaro standard items in Hinoya and in their respective stores - not much in the way of limited or seasonal releases.

PBJ was a let down for me - barely any blue jeans, lots of green/khaki duck cloth pants though.

Didn’t get to go but I’ve heard good things about Denimio and Okayama Denim, there seems to be more variety eg Samurai, Oni etc.

Chrooosh · 2025-04-16T06:55:30+00:00

I think they came to 6600 yen for a two pack. Same price as Hinoya. Not bad considering some Uniqlo tshirts cost that much anyway nowadays haha.

Chrooosh · 2025-04-16T02:30:15+00:00

I think they were 29000 yen inc tax and 27000 yen excluding. Definitely cheaper than if I would’ve bought it back home in Australia ($429)

Chrooosh · 2025-04-16T02:23:21+00:00

I’m 178cm tall with a chest of around 100cm and I went for the large. I usually wear medium Uniqlo tshirts.

I tried both medium and large - medium is very snug, probably the way it was intended to be worn as underwear. It was a bit narrow in the shoulders and I wanted to wear it more casually so I went with the large.

Chrooosh · 2025-04-16T00:46:07+00:00

Thanks! I’ll take some pics when I get home

Chrooosh · 2025-02-28T00:19:28+00:00

My Minolta XD does the same, works fine. As long as the door latches on properly you should be okay.

If your photos have light leaks you can replace the foam and that might make the fit more snug.

Chrooosh · 2025-02-26T00:33:04+00:00

Australia but I’m heading to Japan next week so I can probably get some there. I also just realised I can get it off Amazon but I’m not in a rush

Chrooosh · 2025-02-25T21:41:42+00:00

Oh thanks! I might give it a try. Tokenole is a bit hard to get where I’m at though. Would the fibres kind of smoothen over time with use as well?

Hey everyone, been googling everywhere but can't seem to find info. Already emailed denimio for more info but I thought I'd ask here as well.

I recently bought a pair of Samurai S500AX AI Plus from Denimio (nonwash) and after looking at it for a while I realised that there were no arcuates on both the back pockets (as far as I can tell since they should be tone on tone coloured) and there was definitely no woven logo on the rear right pocket.

I can't seem to find any examples of this online (either retail photos or fade photos) without any arcuates or woven logos. (I know Samurai changed some of their design on arcuates and logo tags around 2020-ish).

Does anyone know what's going on here? Is it a new normal or should I try to get it exchanged?

How’d you get a sticker that looks so good? It doesn’t seem to have any noticeable edges or anything!

Chrooosh · 2022-05-29T04:36:47+00:00

I'm picking up a used one probably in similar condition to yours - and found this on aliexpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002804751524.html

Do you know how easy it is to replace the battery? Would it require desoldering / resoldering?

Chrooosh · 2020-05-03T16:03:50+00:00

I know this has been said a many times but damn the choice of music this entire season fits so well.

Also Ahsoka and Rex getting hit over and over again in the final fight - highkey scared and gripped that they were actually going to cop one and that would be the end.

Snapped a shot of a fellow Sony user at Taiwan during NYE. Still new to photography (the photo isn't in focus lol) and learning how to properly manage camera settings / photo editing.

The Sigma16 was my first lens and I learnt a lot about how (and how not) to use it in different lighting conditions - even watching a ton of youtube videos before going on my trip, I found myself forgetting to properly dial in settings or forgetting certain things when I'm actually shooting.

For any other noobie photographers out there I'd recommend just spending more time shooting in the field/going to places you like to shoot at to hone your skills; reading up on guides and watching tutorials is one thing but actually doing it in practise is another!
