It's amazing that they've been able to develop this using high-grade Australian wool!

Aaah, finally. I had an argument with the dry cleaning chick, whatever you do in Japan you need a member card and I couldn't rememebr my phone number, so blaaah bleeeh blaaaaah etc...so I'll clean my new suit at home and spare my time and money.

so Mr. salaryman can come home, take a shower in his suit and then hang it out to dry for the following morening. Killing a few birds with one stone, eh?

We've had them in the U.S. for the last 15 years made by Levis, they work great and feel good too.

Wow, you guys actually buy suits at places like Aoki? I guess if you don't care about the cut of your suit to begin with I guess it wouldn't matter how you clean/wash it...
