How was "Hobby" in "Finam Unplugged" vo.6? We've turned our attention to "things" consumption, but we still want to enjoy pure fashion during this season! So, let's take a look at "Shopping Addict," which is all about consuming goods!
It has been two and a half years since I moved to Kamakura. I have decided to move within the same Kamakura area. I am trying to buy all the furniture I have been holding back so far, but I can't seem to find what I am looking for.
During Paris Fashion Week in January, we saw "Mackintosh 0001," a premium line derived from "Mackintosh. Among the all-black collection, what particularly caught my eye was the brand's iconic coat. The minimalistic and stylish proportions created by 27-year-old designer Kiko Kostadinov were perfect enough to foreshadow the brand's future breakthrough. Dover Street Market hooked up with Kiko this time, but it would be great if more young designers like this would emerge in Japan. I am looking forward to the appearance of authentic designers who inherit the so-called traditional lineage, rather than an indie, street-style stance.

We have always paid attention to the shoemaking of "Non-Native," and this season they have finally created a masterpiece worthy of being called a masterpiece. The elegant form of these side gore boots caught my eye the moment I saw them, and they are simply beautiful, aren't they? The extremely slim foot entry part fits perfectly with the tight pants of [Non-Native]. The designer, Mr. Takayuki Fujii, who is exceptionally particular about the silhouette of pants, must have paid a great deal of attention to the "interference" between the shoes and pants. These boots should definitely be worn with tight pants. Incidentally, these beautiful boots are produced by a famous Italian factory. In terms of elegance and sexiness, we may not be able to compete with his country yet.

When you find something good, you want to keep it to yourself! and "I want to tell everyone about it as soon as possible! I think I am not the only one who feels the same way. When I saw "CALM," which was newly launched last season as an original label of "Martinique," I had both of the aforementioned feelings in my mind, but in the end, my editorial self won out, so I am introducing it here. CALM" is a brand that uses high quality materials, sewn in a domestic factory, and carefully incorporates hints of the latest trends into its products. The smooth feel of the cashmere knit, the height of the neckline, and the slightly roomy sleeves of the coach jacket are all good examples of how the slightest arrangement can produce the greatest effect. Other items with a high degree of perfection were also on display. Callum, now is the time to buy!

I have not been burning incense for a long time. I used to love using it to scent my room, but it has been a long time since my child was born. As a parent of a small child, I naturally stay away from anything that involves fire (although I do smoke...). However, the aroma of fire that I smell once in a while is nostalgic and pleasant. And it feels even better to use a skateboard-shaped incense burner like this one. Moreover, the included glass case doubles as a vase for a single flower. It's a chic product with an urban feel, just like the Alexander Lee Chan brand. It makes me feel like burning incense for the first time in a while.

When running for long periods of time, you may be surprised to find that socks play an important role. In fact, when running for more than half a day on the trail, the feet inevitably become stuffy, which leads to bean formation, which in turn leads to poor performance. Keeping your feet dry is the key to better results. This is where C3fit's Paper Fiber Socks come in. As the name suggests, these socks are made of paper fibers, which provide an excellent dry feeling. The material is moisture absorbent and leaves the skin feeling dry, which helps to reduce steaminess. Moreover, it is so highly functional that it also provides five times more abrasion strength than regular sports socks. They may look plain, but they are useful.

In the trail-running scene, Mountain Hardware's bags are generally well-received. The casual-looking Dipsy Trail packs introduced previously, the highly versatile Fruid series, and the single-track Race Vest series with minimal capacity and functionality are just a few examples of the excellent balance between usability and good looks. The "Summit Rocket 20 Vest Pack" introduced here is no exception. The vest-shaped shoulder harness offers an excellent fit, and the four pockets provide excellent storage capacity. In addition to the 20-liter capacity for everyday use, the internal hydration pocket can also be used as a PC sleeve. It can be used for mid-range races with few aids, such as the Hacettune, or for a run home.

I recently visited New York City for the first time and was seriously surprised to see 50CENT in the passenger seat of the car I almost hit on the way to the location of the shoot by UBER.
Recently, there have been a series of exhibitions of interest in New York City. The "Comme des Garcons" exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the "NY ART BOOK FAIR" at MoMA PS1. The last day of my business trip, I wished I could have visited them a week earlier. The day before, I was looking for places to visit, and MoMA was one of them. The current exhibition, "Items: Is Fashion Modern? The exhibition features 350 pieces from 111 different fashion items that have permeated and evolved in our daily lives over the past 100 years. From familiar items such as sneakers, jeans, and T-shirts, to religious and cultural accessories, there is an array of items that are indispensable to the clothing culture of the 20th and 21st centuries. This book compiles such valuable objects in one volume. I feel it makes sense to buy it here.

One of the projects I photographed during my business trip to New York this time is "New York stores that interest me now" by Mr. Pogie of "UNITED ARROWS&SONS. I visited "NEWTOP JEWELRY," one of the stores on the list, and I ended up buying this Kihei (flat and twisted) necklace. I haven't worn a gold chain in years. I was going to buy only the Kihei necklace, but I bought the twisted one as well. What is interesting here is why Mr. Ogi chose NEWTOP JEWELRY with pinpoint accuracy among all the jewelry stores in Chinatown. Please check out the article to be published at a later date for the reason as well.

Atelier Beton" creates products that accompany people's life work at home with a new sensibility, based on the concept that "clothes are tools for comfortable living. Have you heard of Atelier Beton? If you haven't, please keep it in mind. And this season, I was personally interested in this hoodie. It is made of the brand's original soft, warm, brushed-lined sweatshirt fabric, and the loose, loose silhouette is very comfortable. It has no shoulder joints and is cut in a way that makes it easy to raise your arms, making it a useful item not only for loungewear, but also for your daily wardrobe. Of course, I chose the latter. The calm orange color is nice, and now that the weather is getting chilly, I'd love to wear it on its own without hesitation.

I am planning to climb Mt. Qianzhuang to enjoy climbing in autumn. I would like to visit some mountains this year with an overnight stay at a mountain hut.
Is it an Osaka brand? That was my first impression. It turns out that this remake line (Scofield) is made in the vintage store "Orange Crush" in Tacoma, U.S.A. The combination of casual colors and materials is very well done, and the strong accents such as the "R" on the arm of the jacket on the left and the "Nebraska" state on the right are also very well done. Nowadays, most of my wardrobe is occupied by basic items, but I think that adding accents and flavors to these items is where my style and individuality can be expressed. In this respect, I think "Schofield" items have a character that allows them to play a leading role in your outfits. If I am not careful, I tend to focus only on basic items, but I think it would be a waste if I do not actively enjoy items with strong accents such as these from time to time.

This goes back to the theme of "smart consumption" that we discussed in the magazine "Huinum Unplugged" vol. 5, but in this day and age, you often need a good reason to buy things. In this respect, practical products made by outdoor brands are all things that meet the needs of such consumers. This down from Snow Peak is made of a flame-retardant material called aramid, making it a fireproof outerwear. I once had a favorite down melted by a fire and left a hole in it, and it was quite a shock. Furthermore, the practical design, such as the ribbed design that doesn't get in the way of outdoor work, is also heartbreaking, which you can only understand after you try it on. What's more, the shorter length gives it a classy finish, so it can also be used as street wear. This can be said to be the ideal type of urban outdoor wear that covers a large swath of activities from bonfires to the city.

Black or navy? I always have a hard time with this question when there are color variations when I make a purchase. I think black is the more basic color and easier to combine, but I prefer navy because it is more elegant and less heavy. To put it bluntly, "that's the question," whether to take practicality or taste. I don't know if this is the solution, but this leather tote, in a color between black and navy, with exquisite nuances that flirt with both, showed me the way when I was a lost lamb. The design is simple, and the nuances that fall somewhere between men's and women's are also appealing. Combined with the quality of the leather, I recommend this bag as a leather bag suitable for an adult man to carry.

Money game. Selling off your time. If you were a bad guy, you could take it away or trade it for clothes. It's strange how money comes and goes, when you think about it. What happened to the money I paid this fall. Here are those three vectors.
It has been a long time since the exclamation (or adjective) "yabai" became a household word. A decade ago, it would have been judged by whether or not it appeared in a Japanese dictionary, but now it is probably a Google search result. (Search results for "yabai": about 46,900,000) There is certainly a sense in society that only the word "yabai" can penetrate, and the sense and the word probably create the mood of the world through their interdependent relationship. Recently, the word "Maji Manji" seems to be stimulating the metabolism of new senses. Take and Sons' Trailblazer jacket is a masterpiece that embodies the metabolism of the senses based on careful respect for history. The pockets are not decorative, of course, but all of them have functional excuses. Once you put on the sleeves, you will experience the beautiful silhouette and fit of the dress, which shows the roots of the dress. This detailed workmanship is something that is impossible to achieve in a Japanese factory. This is a dress that I would like to express "Yabai" with respect. We hope you will try it on once.

Autumn is a season that takes on a variety of modifiers. Typical examples are reading and sports, and as a lover of both, the coach jacket from "Phil Melange" was a perfect fit for me. The traditional and cultured pattern called "gun club check" and the shape was originally made for coaches sitting on the American football bench. Combined with the corduroy collar and the soft merino wool texture typical of the Phil Melange brand, the result is a literary, yet nostalgic, sporty piece of clothing unlike anything you have seen before. I recommend Genichiro Takahashi's "Elegant and Sentimental Japanese Baseball" as a book to read while wearing this dress. This is a book that deconstructs and reconstructs the perception of "baseball" in the brain through all the techniques of slapstick, pastiche, and narrative trickery. Go to "Haus Filmerange" in Sendagaya, buy this jacket, and read it at Jingu Stadium. How about a holiday like that?

The obvious. Clothing is (basically) fabric sewn together and has a simple structure compared to a smartphone or refrigerator. However, the functions required of the clothes we wear are tougher and more varied than one might imagine, and the cutting, detailing, and use of materials have given rise to unique technical systems and cultures throughout the history of clothing. A representative example of this is the Levi's jeans. I don't mean to be nostalgic, but I feel that clothes made by going back and forth between historical archives and modern sensibilities have a special smell and depth to them. This denim jacket is a gem that mixes details of Levi's second and third styles and incorporates them into a unique wide and short silhouette. The catchy finishing touches of tape on the cuffs and hem are also outstanding. You can tell that the brand is not nostalgic, but rather is looking forward to the future.

The Jeep® in "Huynem" was released in September.special feature articleMusician Keiichi Sogabe appeared in the "Japan's first magazine," "The World of Music," and "The World of Music: The World of Music. Although I was not in charge of this article, Mr. Sogabe is a person who holds fond memories for me. About 10 years ago, when I was an editorial assistant at my previous job, I used to listen to his music all the time. I even had a two-shot photo taken with Mr. Sogabe. But I haven't listened to his music at all for the past few years, and I never mentioned it in the editorial office (sorry, Mari-san). However, my enthusiasm for them has been growing since their appearance in "Huinamu," and recently I have been listening to Sunny Day Service all the time. Especially, "Gekkoso" and "Magic" are my favorites.
In September, I wrote, "Blog of "Huynem UnpluggedThe stool "LC14 CABANON" introduced in I was so curious about the real thing that I borrowed it from the Cassina Ixcie Aoyama flagship store. This stool was designed by Le Corbusier in 1952 as a birthday present for his wife. When I picked it up, I found it to be 43 cm in length and width, a good size for carrying around, and the design, which seems unlikely, is really wonderful. I think it is useful not only as a stool, but also as a place to put books, a step stool, and for many other purposes. I like that it is made of wood, so it will fit in easily in any room. Personally, I would like to purchase another smaller size one made in 1959.

As introduced in the September issue of Huynem Unplugged magazine, duffle coats are on my mind this winter. It's a classic coat, but the wildness of it suits the mood of the moment. However, I have never bought a duffle coat before, and to be honest, I have an image that it looks somewhat difficult to wear. Then I found a model that was a collaboration between "Groverall" and "agnes b." It is a plain black coat. The plain black design was cool, and I had been interested in it since I saw it at an exhibition six months ago. According to the press, the designer Agnès Böhl himself actually wears these items in his products. The fact that it can be worn with a variety of pants, from vintage jeans to slacks, is also a key point.

This September marks the first anniversary of the opening of the Barneys New York Roppongi store. This was the impetus for the "BARNEYS NEW YORK SOLE SERIES" project, in which shoes made in collaboration with various brands are released every month from September to December. Following the first edition of "Fila" sneakers, boots from "Timberland" appeared in October. The "6-inch boots" shown in the photo are not the usual yellow nubuck leather, but a completely different water-repellent leather. They have a somewhat dress shoe look and are recommended to be worn with slacks. In addition, the waterproof rubber sole makes them lightweight and functional with excellent cushioning. In addition to the shoes shown in the photo, the "Hiker," a masterpiece of trekking shoes, has also been reissued as part of the "Timberland" project.

It is finally getting chilly, so I have changed my pajamas to fall/winter wear and taken down my blankets. At night, I snuggle under the covers and read or watch movies until I feel sleepy. It's the right way to spend autumn.
When I was a karate student, I spent my days at the dojo. I went to the dojo every day and spent my days practicing kumite and kata, dripping with sweat. The dojis that I had swallowed both sweet and sour were a part and parcel of my life. Perhaps it is because I have become so familiar with do-gi over the years that even now I naturally gravitate toward clothing that evokes a sense of "wa" (harmony). Recently, I have been delighted to see a variety of clothing on the market that incorporates kimono designs and techniques and interprets them in a fashionable way. The kimono we picked up this time, a collaboration between "Willy Chavarria" and "Brand Black," is based on a kimono pattern, with a waterproof nylon outer material, fleece lining, and reflectors around the zip tape, boldly mixing sports elements. This flexible approach is fun and unique to an imported brand. At first glance, the garment gives the impression of being active, but when worn, it retains the bewitching atmosphere characteristic of Japanese-style clothing. I was completely taken in by this mysterious charm that cannot be described simply by the term "Japanese-Western fusion.

Every piece of Brunavoin clothing has a surprise hidden in it, such as a gimmick to amuse the wearer or an unusual motif. However, behind the catchiness, you can sense a serious attitude toward manufacturing, such as solid sewing and careful fabric selection, so no matter how "playful" the clothes are, they never look cheap, and adults can wear them and feel strangely comfortable in them. For example, the deep one-tucked "gob nu pants" here is the most distinctive feature. This succeeds in creating a unique silhouette and beautiful drape. As you can see, these pants are extremely thick with plenty of room around the waist, but the natural tapered shape makes them feel comfortable. Among the wide pants that have been popular recently, this is one that is excellent in terms of both "individuality" and "ease of adoption. The material used is cotton suede that has been beaten to the limit. I personally love the tough fabric that does not get dented no matter how much you wear it.

Common Sweden" is a brand from Malmö, Sweden, as the brand name suggests, although it may be unnecessary to explain at this point since the brand is becoming well known. The brand is now based in London. Elegant and classical tailoring and gimmicky strength inspired by the subculture of the youth generation are fused together to form the 100% savory "Common Sweden". The "RAD" pants, characterized by their large pockets, are a surprisingly versatile item that can be worn with chic outfits such as jacket styles, as well as with glamorous outerwear without a hitch. The loud checkered pattern is a perfect match. Above all, the pants' thickness and straight shape are great. This is true of all pants made by Common Sweden. It is easy to understand if you take a look at the look. Furthermore, what I feel consistently in the past looks is that the use of brownish colors is too good. It is the base color of the collection, so it is only natural, but the way the colors are scooped out to match the shape of the clothes is very tasteful. It is an item that makes you wonder what to wear with it.

From "Studio Nicholson," which launched its men's collection this season. The quality of the collection is absolutely unquestionable, as the previous women's collection was also inspired by the tailoring of men's items. This jacket is made of luxurious, high-quality wool fabric from Abraham Moon & Sons Ltd. The beauty of the silhouette, which falls downwards, created by the moderate weight, is first class. The thickness is also exquisite, making it suitable for layering. It is a masterpiece that can be worn with anything, whether you wear a bright shirt underneath or tuck it into your outerwear when the weather gets colder. For some reason, items with large pockets have been on my mind recently. Not from a functional point of view, but from a decorative point of view. If you look for secondhand clothing, you can find a few of these items, but the problem is that the pockets are often misshapen or have no buttons, and few of them are left in good condition.... On the other hand, the pockets of this jacket have an imposing appearance. They are very neat. The mainstay of autumn and a supporting role in winter, this is the jacket for you!

There are countless rock lovers who are indebted to "Dr. Martens. To be honest, I was not influenced by the punk context, but I found myself wearing them. After seeing my favorite British band "PEACE" wearing them in a stylish way, I started to pay even more attention to them. When I discovered this model "Ghillie," which was introduced this season, I could hear such a beat in my heart again. The "Ghillie" was inspired by vintage "Dr. Martens" that the design team in Japan found at a thrift store in Japan. I thought something about the laces looked familiar, but it turned out that they were the same ones used on the collaborative model with "Engineered Garments. That collaboration was the first to use this lace construction, wasn't it? The other major difference from the 3-eye, which is a major standard, is that the top of the quarter panel on the side is jagged. In other words, the "Dr. Martens"-like appearance has been retained. I suddenly think that this "Ghillie", which shows a completely different look without making any radical design changes from the standard, should become a new standard. In my opinion, it is already a new classic.
