Porter bags from Japan

Does anyone know how to order Porter bags direct from Japan? There's some websites but seemingly none with English. I realize some U.S. retailers do sell them, but wondering if it's possible to buy directly.

You can get some here. I got one in a fit of bag lust, not 100% sure its worth it.

As a last resort, you can ask a service like White Rabbit Express to buy the bag the locally and ship it to you. They charge $10 + 12.5% + shipping fees so on a decent Porter bag, that's no small premium.

The last time I was looking to buy consumer goods from Japan I found rakuten. I never ordered anything through them though.

Just to clarify shothotbot's comment: those bags are a collaboration between Monocle and Porter. Monocle does not sell any other bags except those.
