Slides | Website Tuesday, December 6th Honeyee Shop - Sorry for the odd feeling, but why is it that on Yahoo! auctions no one will ship outside of Japan, and that many Japanese online stores don't serve customers from abroad? Are westerners not trustworthy or plain unworthy of Japanese goods? Sometimes it feels like it. Or is it the shipping? It's probably a much bigger effort to put a non-Japanese address on a package than a Japanese one. And at the post office - that's probably the worst... Well, Honeyee just opened their online shop - for the Japanese market only. They probably don't want to interfere with all the other SOPH., etc. dealers around the planet... Website Monday, December 5th ACRONYM - ...picked four pieces from their current collectionn to re-open their online store. Note: the Gore-Tex Cashmere fabric that was used on the GT-J7 you will not find on any other jacket by any other producer (or any other piece of clothing for that matter).
