Keep truckin’
Bob Weir, an original member of the Grateful Dead, has gone to heaven. I wonder if he has reunited with Garcia, Resch, and the others and is playing with them there now. I was hoping to see Dead and Company in Japan, but it turned out to be an unfulfilled dream.... I wish I could have seen them just once. Recently, I have been listening to "American I've been listening to "American Beauty" in memory of them.
BODHI
Bodhi's shirt
Cashmere 100%.
When I saw this shirt for the first time at an exhibition, I was astonished. It was a simple shirt with a regular collar, but it clearly radiated an aura of something special. I wondered what the secret of this aura was, and when I touched the shirt, I found that it was extremely supple and had a high quality feel to it. I looked at the quality label to see if it was indeed cashmere 1001 TP10T, and I found that it was made with a fine broadcloth structure. The sewing is also extremely careful, and the quality is second to none of the luxury brands. The God is in the details" is exactly what this shirt says, and it has a quiet but definite presence. Bodhi, which specializes in cashmere, produced this shirt. The price is a little high, but considering the quality, I think it is not expensive at all. The design is timeless, and I can wear it all the time.

HERILL.
Herrill zip-up hoodie and pants
Luxurious hoodie.
I have been interested in zip-up hoodies instead of pullover hoodies since last year, but when I wear sweatshirts, I feel like an "American casual" guy, and I don't feel comfortable wearing them. That's when I came across Herrill's 100% silk zip-up hoodie. As you can see from the photo, it has a beautiful drape and elegant luster. Yet, it has a luxurious appearance without any unpleasant feeling. It is also smooth and comfortable to the touch. It looks great worn casually or with jeans. If you want, you can even wear it with pants made of the same material as a set-up. By the way, there was a controversy a while ago about 40-somethings wearing hoodies, but don't say that. Let me wear what I want!

NORMAL EXPERT
Normal Expert anoraks and pants.
Seasonless clothing.
Climate change over the past few years has changed the criteria for clothing selection. Rather than enjoying the changing seasons, we naturally gravitate toward clothing that is comfortable, functional, and suitable for a wide range of climates.
Expert's standard items, the anorak blouson and pants, are made to transcend the four seasons, with the anorak designed to be worn 300 days a year and the pants designed to be worn 365 days a year. Also, functional pockets, ventilation, and other details that are ideal for daily use are provided throughout. In addition, as you can see, the design is sophisticated and urban. Normal" is a high-dimensional fusion of function and fashion that can be worn in any season.
I think it is safe to say that Normal Expert's clothes are one of the best solutions for daily wear in the modern age.

Gurank.
Grunk cardigan and pants
A color scheme that is worth exploiting.
I love the contrasting color schemes seen in American outdoor brands from the 1990s. Bold color combinations that use complementary or opposite colors are flashy and difficult to incorporate into fashion, but that is why it feels so good when you can wear them. It's a challenge to conquer. The photo shows a zip cardigan and pants released by "GRANK. The color combination and design are reminiscent of the outdoor jackets of that era, but the fabric is low-gauge hang-knit jersey for a lightweight finish. It can be worn with jeans and work boots for a 90s American casual look, or with symbiotic pants for a sporty look.

Moriya Half Marathon.
I've been participating in this event every year for some reason. We all stay at my parents' house. This year, I think we will visit a sauna that is opening in Takanawa and have a drink at Kitasenju. Of course, after the race, we would launch the race at my parents' house. The warmth of the kotatsu (Japanese warming table) is a perfect match for a moderate sense of fatigue and moderate intoxication.

THE NORTH FACE
The North Face backpacks
A see-through pack that will make your fantasies grow.
In the course of my work, I visit exhibitions of various brands. Not to satisfy my own material desires, of course. My main purpose is to predict the overall mood, trends, and future trends. That being said, sometimes I do get my teeth into a new product when it comes out. The North Face's Sum
The North Face's "Sum 45" trekking pack is just such a product. The body of the pack is made of Monomesh, which is hydrophobic and quick-drying. While maintaining a lightweight weight of approximately 855g (S-M size), the high visibility of the pack gives it a lighter appearance. By combining a waterproof pack liner inside the main compartment, you can smartly store items that you do not want to get wet. Other useful details include a detachable shoulder pocket, elastic side pockets, and a magnetic chest belt that allows for speedy attachment and removal. This see-through pack is not only easy to use, but also expands the imagination of those who use it. We would love to try it out in the field.

In addition to developing sports equipment for running, judo, baseball, ping-pong, golf, and football, Mizuno is developing a wide variety of businesses, including trend-setting sports styles, sneakers, and uniforms for corporate customers.

In addition, the new woven material woven upper provides a better fit in addition to a significant weight reduction. The technical and sporty color scheme with white as the precious color also makes a good impression on me personally. Mizuno's next-generation racing shoes are a stir in the running scene, which is dominated by a crowd of runners. This is a shoe that will make your expectations swell.

Chappie.
I am ashamed to say it, but I have been using it quite a bit recently. It's like I don't take it as it is, but refer to it for perspective. I think I read something about how it's good to get an answer after affirmation, but I'm more interested in suggestions like, "I can talk about this, too." I enjoy suggestions like that. There are some big misses, but maybe the point is that they are not perfect. I guess it's called a sense of missing the point.

Foot the Coach x Graph Paper shoes
I'm in a leather sole mood.
When I choose leather shoes, I tend to choose rubber soles. They are convenient and easy to use. However, I am often bothered by the ruggedness of the sole. Recently, I have been in the mood to wear leather shoes with leather soles because I wanted something classy. At such a time, a new pair of "Graph Paper" shoes made by "Foot the Culture" appeared on the market. The design is a very orthodox plain toe with an external shuttlecock. The original leather used for the upper, the bag-stitched construction that keeps the stitching inconspicuous, and the Goodyear manufacturing method with a storm welt, etc., show the attention to detail at a glance. The leather sole is the base, and only the heel has a dynamite sole. I was impressed by the sense of balance that is typical of "Graph Paper," which seeks urban comfort and wearability. This year, I aim to be a smart adult.

Tangerine
Tangerine mandarin juice
The finest mandarin orange juice bought from the producer.
I made it myself. When did it become common to sell vegetables and fruits with the words "I made it" and a picture of the producer's face? I had this thought when I visited Uwajima City, Ehime Prefecture, last December to interview Yuichiro Wakamatsu. He has decided to take over as the third generation of a mikan farmer, and he produces additive-free, straight juice from the oranges he grows and sells it under the name "Tangerine. I was particularly impressed with the Haruka one, which has a creamy, thick texture in the mouth. The sweetness and bitterness rush into your mouth. It makes me drool just thinking about it. I wrote this much and then went to the mail order page to see if it was sold out. Next year, please come again! All of them have a pleasant aftertaste and disappear from your mouth without a hitch. I highly recommend them as gifts.

JINS
Zins glasses
A new classic is born.
My eyesight is getting worse and worse, and I can't live without my glasses, probably due to excessive use of PCs and smartphones. This makes me want more than one pair of glasses, so I picked up a new model from “Zins. This is a line released in December called ”New Classic. As you can tell from the name, the line is intended to answer the question, "What is a high-quality, universal standard? There are six models in the lineup, and the best part is that all of them have titanium nose pads. They are all comfortable to wear by far. I chose the thermont type, which I liked for its slightly rounded shape and size. The combination of titanium and acetate makes them very comfortable to wear. I also like the feeling that they do not look too strong. I haven't been able to change the lenses yet due to the availability of lenses, but I plan to use dimmable lenses for the first time in my life.

Calf Sneakers
Retro security.
Low-profile, thick-soled, barefoot, treerun-type, etc.... There have been many different waves of sneakers in recent years, but sometimes they tire me out. If you want a little bit of peace of mind, CALF has a well-balanced model. That is the “Legacy
It is a reissue model of the ”Legacy 96,“ a running shoe created in 1996. The retro look is maintained, but the upper texture and cushioning have been enhanced. Personally, I like the balance of not overdoing it. For example, there is cushioning, but the sole is not too thick. In Sweden, which is located next to Finland, the birthplace of Karloff, there is a word ”Lalgom," which means "just right" or "in moderation. The idea is to have neither too much nor too little. These shoes are just like that, and are extremely easy to use for daily life.

Ombre Nino Jacket
A strong ally of the minimalist.
The first item we picked up for the New Year is an all-weather utility jacket released by Ombre Nino. White outerwear is hard to come by because of stain concerns, but with this one, the nylon-ox fabric has been treated with a water-repellent finish, making it relatively easy to care for. The gusseted pockets on both sides of the chest are also a major point of this work, and their storage capacity is such that you can even go out empty-handed without a bag. It is sure to make many appearances throughout the season, so there is no harm in adding it to your wardrobe.

SILAS
Cyrus Denim Jacket & Denim Pants
A set-up that is not too Kimari.
When I see a set-up, I tend to buy the top and bottom together because I can enjoy wearing them in various ways, but I have never regretted it too much. After all, items released as a set-up are made with the intention of being worn as a set, so they are very well balanced. The latest example is the jacket and pants from "Cyrus," made of black washed denim. Both jackets and pants have a relaxed fit, but the jacket is slightly shorter in length and the pants have a straight silhouette, keeping the trend firmly in mind. The UK project "Cyrus" has started in earnest this season, and we would like to keep an eye on its future trends.

Tie-on down parka
At this price, I would buy it without hesitation.
This M-65 type jacket with an all-over painted camo pattern is characterized by its outstanding warmth and 800-fill-power down, which is the pride of "Taion". Moreover, it is relatively compact, and when you put the sleeves on it, you will find that it is very supple and lightweight. It is a common problem this time of year that it is difficult to carry a bag when wearing a voluminous down jacket, and this is one of the reasons why it is difficult to get hold of high-lofted ones, but even that problem is easily solved. The wide variety of colors and the surprising cost performance of less than 15,000 yen including tax are also major attractions, so please check back for further details.Brand's online storeCheck it out at

Kingdom of the Fall.
I'm not going to give a synopsis of the movie, but it was very interesting! And it was one of those films that reminded me of the possibilities of cinema. A certain number of films have a clear emotional roadmap that tells us how we should feel, which makes me feel uncomfortable. The point of this film is that the narrator and listener are free to do as they wish. And yet, with almost no CG, overwhelming visual beauty of world heritage sites and spectacular landscapes from more than 24 countries, and Eiko Ishioka's glamorous costumes, it was perfect...a perfect film.
DIE DREI BERGE
Down di Dreibeg
To those who raised the white flag in the great cold wave.
When we ask men who love vintage clothing about their outerwear situation, they say they decidedly do not want to rely on down. They say it is frustrating to rely on technology in fashion. It's a matter of pride. I, on the other hand, have raised my flag against the cold, and am searching for the best down. Recently, I came across this item from "Die Dreibeig. The brand is owned by Ramdan Touami, a Parisian entrepreneur and creative director, and this down is very dear to his heart. The first thing that catches the eye is the coloring. The colors are nice against the crisp winter sky, but not too bright, so they go well with old clothes. The lightness and warmth are obvious when you hold it. The reason is the French white duck down (750 FP), carefully cleaned at a factory in Mie Prefecture. I wore this back home to Hokkaido, my parents' home, and it was roomy. The brass buttons are elegant, and the two rows of buttons allow for size adjustment. In the end, this is probably the right choice of down. I'm going to spend a warm winter with a freezing old clothes geek by my side.

KEISUKEYOSHIDA
Keisuke Yoshida's trench coat
Clothes to look at, clothes to wear.
There is a difference between clothes that you enjoy looking at and clothes that you want to wear. Brands that put on spectacular shows often fall into the former category, with dynamic designs and metaphorical motifs so overwhelming that I never think about wearing them myself. Unusually, however, KYUSUKE YOSHIDA's clothes fall into both categories. This coat is a good example. The trench coat, one of the brand's signature items, has been updated to reflect the mood of this season's collection. The nylon material has a beautiful sheen and dignified appearance, but the design is actually a little different. The back of the coat is designed to look like a cape, so it can be worn as both a trench coat and a cape. The curves of the coat swaying as you walk are unintentionally enchanting. The theme of this season is "the rigor of living in the city today and the delicate expression that lies behind it. With tailored clothes at its core, the brand's clothes that go back and forth between elegance and everyday life are something to look at and wear. This is a brand to keep an eye on.

NICENESS.
Denim jacket of nice-ness
Overcome.
I like vintage clothes and I like jeans, but I thought denim jackets were out of my league. The reason is that I have a very old-fashioned look, and it makes me feel like a cosplayer. However, I found it. It's a denim jacket for me, based on a U.S. Army denim pullover from the 1920s or 1930s, but the arrangement is just as good as you'd expect from "NICENESS. It is designed to open in the front so that it can be appropriately woven like a blouson, and the pockets are designed to be long so that they can be accessed from the outside. The important thing is the fabric. The 12 oz. white-ear selvedge denim made of high-quality U.S. cotton is carefully woven on a shuttle loom, making it neither too heavy nor too light. It has a worn-in feel due to the vertical-falling finish, yet it has a mysterious and elegant look. It can be used as a subtle seasonal weave in spring or fall, and in winter it can be tucked inside a coat. It was only at my age that I realized the advantages of denim jackets. It's not good to be ignorant of them.

Helly Hansen deck jacket
The Navy was also surprised.
At first glance, it looks like an N-1, but it is brand new. The brand is "Helly Hansen. The design is of course a classic deck jacket, but the functions are state-of-the-art. First of all, the fiber pile photoelectron used for the lining is based on FIBERPILE THERMO, which is a longer pile of fiber pile, the original fleece. The pile yarn is mixed with photoelectron to maintain the wearer's own body heat. The outer fabric is made of windproof nylon. The outer fabric is made of a windproof nylon material that keeps the warmth accumulated by the fiber pile photoelectrons from escaping. The boa collar and chinstrap design are also a nod to those days. The lack of unnecessary decorations is also neat. It was one of the clothes that made me think it would be a great idea to buy it as a new item. By the way, you can understand why the name is "HHFP" if you read it back from the beginning.

Brahms' Harrington jacket.
Tamamushi Harrington.
The pants I have are all thick, but I recently got a pair of regular fit slacks. Then the next thing I want is a short jacket to go with them. I have an image of masculine movie heroes like Tyler in "Fight Club" and Renton in "Trainspotting" wearing that combination. The Harrington jacket by Brahms caught my eye. I was attracted to its unique iridescent color, which looks beige or green depending on the way the light hits it. The fabric is a fine cotton gabardine woven with fine count yarn. The fabric is washed to give it a natural wrinkled and fluffed appearance, giving it a soft, old-worn look, even though it is brand new. And to make the most of this texture, the surface of the fabric is not water-repellent. It is also important to note that this jacket is not like the Harrington jackets of a certain royal brand.

This is a nice update because I have experienced many times that warm coffee in the cool, clear air tastes great, but it cools down quickly and the happy moment is over in an instant. The tumbler is also compact because the main unit, stirrer, measuring spoon, and filter all fit neatly inside the tumbler. The simple usability of just pouring in hot water and pressing is also attractive.

Mules come in handy when you go for a walk to get some fresh air, go to the convenience store, or go out for a short one-mile trip.

However, they also have the drawback that the heels can become floppy and you may get tired after wearing them for a long time. Hoka's "ORA

The full suede upper is not too sporty and will blend in with everyday pants such as slacks.

Washing clothes in the wrong way can ruin them, so it is important to check the label carefully.

It covers washing, bleaching, drying, ironing, cleaning, and laundry labels, with a brief explanation underneath. At first glance, the bottom half looks upside down, but take a look at the second picture. In fact, this is designed to look like a clothing tag by wrapping it around. And the texture of the satin material used for the tag is expressed by applying thin dots of gray ink on the glossy paper developed by Takeo, a trading company specializing in paper. The vivid colors unique to rythograph are also good. I am going to put it on my laundry space and become a laundry label master.
