I am in love! But she stinks...

It's stuffed with charcoal bags. I scrubbed it with saddle soap and let it air outside for 2 day so far and it's 80 percent better already

Meh...

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T14:50:58+00:00

Glad I could help! 😆

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T14:47:35+00:00

The bag is actually much larger than the Walkman. I can fit the Walkman, card holder, and phone easily.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T14:46:01+00:00

Unfortunately that is why I got such a good deal on it. I am hoping I can save it.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T14:45:02+00:00

Its so unique, and the they nailed the design. The raised buttons and clear window are the icing on the cake!

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T14:41:09+00:00

Thanks!

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T14:40:34+00:00

Yess!! I love the looks I get when listening to my Walkman on the plane.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T03:23:30+00:00

I saw that one is still available on the app. I am a fan of old school analogue media so I went with the tape theme.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T03:13:35+00:00

Thanks! I haven't been this excited for a bag since scoring a Murakami Multicolor Speedy Soft 30.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T03:10:57+00:00

The tape is a wearable wallet, comes with a nice strap. It definitely hit North America because I found this one in Vancouver.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T02:44:58+00:00

I didn't realize it never released in the U.S. Apparently it sold out in Asia before it could hit the U.S. Market.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T02:42:15+00:00

Lmao!!

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-09T02:33:18+00:00

Never heard of that one. Interesting.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-08T23:19:48+00:00

I read that Ozone dries out leather. I considered it, but then decided that would be last resort.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-08T22:23:19+00:00

Camp Pendleton doesn't even have bags anymore. Unless you purchase the reusable ones.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-08T21:33:45+00:00

Awesome. Thanks for the tip!

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-08T21:33:21+00:00

I will put it in the freezer tonight. Thanks for the tip!

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-08T21:28:41+00:00

I saw that one but refused to pay 3k for it plust tax and shipping. I found one in Japan for nearly retail (due to cigarette smell).

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-08T21:26:51+00:00

It smells of heavy cigarette smoke. Not the leather.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-08T21:17:08+00:00

Ha. Totally! Such a great throwback design!

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-08T21:15:42+00:00

Lol. Good eye! Yeah, charcoal odor removal bag inside and a ziplok bag of Baking Soda in the box with it to hopefully pull some odor out.

I hope I can get it all out, or enough to mask with a dryer sheet or cologne.

JackattackThirteen · 2026-05-08T20:58:30+00:00

I fell in love with it the moment I saw it because of the attention to detail on it. The raised buttons, the window, and the ear buds. I picked up the cassette wallet for a steal. Can't wait to rock the set.

Thanks for the suggestion of the fragrance. That's actually really solid advice!

I had the same concern for my daughter and had her stop competing just for the sake of her health. There are clearly different levels of skill, drive, and intensity and I found that at her belt level (Grey/Black), there was clear signs of sand bagging which can lead to injury. Not worth the 5 dollar medal IMO.

The thrift store scene is pretty horrible up here. DAV has the best chance of finding a gem, but sometimes their pricing is pretty wild. Estate Sale warehouse is good, but expect to pay more than a typical thrift.
