Amazon things

    • "Frequently bought with: the lavender conditioner and dispenser lids", aw hell do it, 3543yen plz

  • Loafers, I'm after brown and black pairs, Haruta is the go-to brand over there

    • Size is 27.5cm, 28cm is a safe alternative I guess if they're out of stock of 27.5
    • If stock/availability is a problem for some reason, alternative styles 906 or 9064 work too

Amazon fallbacks

  • The original page with option in black, the thumbnail on the right says クロ but appears to be brown? http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B001H9NS98

    • 27cm is acceptable too I guess
    • Non-immediate availability, "usually ships within 2-3 days"
  • Brown (left thumbnail) is okay as a second option, but the seller is Washington again. ZUCC is selectable as an alternative merchant on the sidebar
  • 27cm in the 906 variant, in one colour (brown): http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B007CW1M4W

  • 9064 variant (extra wide), 27.5cm length, brown, sold by amazon themselves: http://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B001RIY94M
