Rin is a very cool guy,inquisitive and super friendly.When he gets his teeth into something,he really goes for it.I have been lucky enough to meet him several times and have submitted clothing to his guides.He does have a good knowledge,but by seeking out the top dealers/collectors he manages to expand that knowledge and make usfull,informative reference books.CRAZYBUBBA wrote:It's interesting to note that Rin Tanaka of the Myfreedanm series also wrote the motorcycle jacket book. It seems that this person is a walking encyclopedia of vintage.

I tried to interview him, but he's not so good on the ol' internet.
Another book called, "T-Shirts" By Susan Miller has all mid 90s and beyond, lots of Gildan, Delta, and modern FOTL tags.
