Gym Master, NEWLY, and the streets of Yotsuya.

When it comes to the distinct character of Yotsuya, it’s a neighborhood where a mature culture has taken root—home to Arakicho, a destination for industry professionals from Kawada-cho (where Fuji TV was once located) and Wakaba-cho (where Bunka Broadcasting used to be). Many readers may not be very familiar with the area, and for younger people, it might have the image of a place they visit to feel a bit more grown-up. It was to this Yotsuya that musician NEWLY came. Wearing a “Gym Master” jacket—a sign of the approaching cold season—he strolled through the streets of Yotsuya.

Military-inspired fashion with a laid-back vibe, perfect for the city.

〈Jim Master〉 flight jacket ¥ 12,980; 〈Jim Master〉 snap-button shirt ￥ 7,590; 〈Jim Master〉 pants ￥ 8,690; all other items are the stylist’s personal belongings

The functional beauty and rugged, no-nonsense aesthetic of military wear captivate fashion enthusiasts. However, wearing these pieces as-is can sometimes make you look like you’re in cosplay or feel out of step with the current trends. This piece, inspired by the Flight Jacket, incorporates sorona®, a functional fabric developed by the American company DuPont, making it an eco-friendly choice. Pair it with a checkered shirt underneath, along with relaxed-fit pants and shoes, to complete your urban military look.
