He uses the Black color, as mentioned
here on a website which I managed to find. I rem it was originally stated in the mag article that he has been a long supporter of the Porter Tanker series, with it been featured prominently ever since he worked on the TV drama "Love Generation" back in the older days. Also in the book 吉田カバン完全読本 70th Anniversary, there's a page scanned
here thanks to the Kurachika Porter fan-site, it also revealed 2 of his fav Porter bags in there, with the left one purchased during when he was working on the TV production of "Engine", and the right one which is Tanker totebag tat he has been using for the past 18yrs (make it 20 now since the book was released in 2005), lol.
Details of the Porter Anniversary book can be found
here on Amazon JP, if anyone's interested. And btw mosmos, I went to check out Yahoo JP and Rakuten stores abt the seasonal colors, and it's safe to say that it's not a pricing error by Cool-Cat. Apparently the Navy color for the Headporter Tanker series is a limited release, as further confirmed by 2 japanese websites that I know, details
here and
here. So it's correct to say once Navy color is sold out for the initial release, Hiroshi Fujiwara will only release the Black and Olive Green for every season now, which explains why the difference in pricing when u showed us the links in ur previous post.
I seriously didn't know abt this too till I went to check out several sites and japanese blogs, cos noob mar I nv buy the Tanker series before myself also. ^ ^ Now we all know liao, next time if go Japan managed to find the Navy color when u do ur shopping, must count urself lucky liao.
