Furniture collection.

It has been almost half a year since we moved in and we still have not been able to furnish the house. Still, with the help of various people, we have been able to gather a few things. The other day, I bought a rug immediately. If you are looking for rugs in Kamakura, please visit TRUG.

N.HOOLYWOOD COMPILE × GramicciN. Hollywood Compile x Gramichi pants

2018_04_addict_komu_1

High-precision manufacturing by skilled craftsmen.

Recently, I've been on a hot streak. It is to cover designers who have been working on their brands for many years. I have often pretended to be a lone wolf, thinking that it is okay because other media outlets have covered the brand extensively, but a brand that attracts many people has a solid reason, and there is no reason why its creator should not be interesting. And then there is N. Hollywood. We had the opportunity to interview the designer, Daisuke Ohana, for our Jeep project in January, and he had a lot of very meaningful things to say. I then took a look at the "N. Hollywood" brand, and was again surprised by the meticulous and careful craftsmanship. The "Gramichi" pants, which are continuously released as a compiled line, are a good example of this. The new pants have a very chunky silhouette as you can see, but because they are made of high-quality fabric with a sense of fall, they are a magical pair that do not lose their dignity even though they are so thick. It will tickle your appetite.

NICENESS.Levi's special order belt for nice-ness

2018_04_addict_komu_2

It is authentic in both creation and play.

Belts never see the light of day unless they are tucked in. In that case, I tend to make conservative choices, but when I saw this "shiny" belt, I instantly knew I wanted one. It is a special order with Levi's, and is made of genuine tanned leather. The most important point is, of course, the fluorescent color of the cover. The most important point is, of course, the fluorescent color on the cover. This wonderful combination was "invented" by the up-and-coming brand "Nuishness. The concept of the brand is "good things are good," and the creation of this brand is very pleasing to the eye. The apparel lineup also seems to offer a variety of items that are not simple, and I now have another brand that I need to watch regularly.

STABILIZER GNZDenim Trousers by Stabilizer Jeans

2018_04_addict_komu_3

One that I can't wait to let fade.

Depending on the day, I sometimes think that thin pants are the best, and sometimes I think that thick pants are the best! I have a very loose philosophy about pants, but the one thing that has not changed is that "Stabilizer Jeans" are the best. I may have mentioned this before, but I feel refreshed when I wear them. It is as if the maker Yazane's stoic love for denim has been transferred to me. I love wearing them every day, but until now I have only been wearing tight denim. Because I felt like it was better that way. But when I saw the new "0-34", I ordered it without even trying it on. I liked everything about it: the moderate thickness, the racy center press, and the trimness of the back style. Denim fabrics still have a lot of potential, don't they?

ITTY-BITTYItty Bitty shirt

2018_04_addict_komu_4

I like this shirt from every angle.

I don't have a clear-cut preference for shirt details, so the shirts I have on hand vary from button-downs to spread collars and round collars. What do you like about these shirts, which Ittibitti has been continuously offering in different colors and patterns? I like them all! It is one of those shirts that you can say, "I love it all! The high quality fabric is densely woven, so it has just the right amount of bounce and a finish that is not too casual. I also like the silhouette, which has just the right amount of room. In short, it is designed to be neither too big nor too small, and I think it is designed to gently accept a middle-aged person over 40 years old. At first glance, it may look simple, but it doesn't push you away, and I think that is the charm of the Ittibitti brand. This is my second Ittibitti, although it has a similar pattern and color.

Hiroshi Yamamoto

I am writing this article as I prepare for my first 100-mile race next week. I don't mean to say that I'm not putting a lot of effort into my work, but I'm thinking about it all the time. That's fun, but I'm worried about what will happen after the race is over.

TRAIL BUMTrailbum Backpacks

2018_04_addict_yama_1

A counter to the trend?

Not only outdoor makers, but also top maisons and even simple novelties, there are, in any case, an abundance of sakosh everywhere. Of course, I admit that they are convenient, but my belief is that if you see so many of them, you don't want to carry one. In other words, I need a backpack with excellent storage capacity. I turned to Trail Bum, under the supervision of Highland Design, a leader in ultralight gear. The lightweight, rugged ripstop nylon is combined with a large, highly visible mesh pocket that allows you to check the items inside at a glance, and the roll-top design will keep out light rain without difficulty. With a capacity of 12-19 liters, it can be used for everything from day hikes to town use. The fact that it is based on the brand's standard hiker's sackoshes is an interesting counterpoint to the recent trend.

Supplementation to keep the body in shape.

I've neglected resupplying during races in the past. However, when it comes to a 100-mile (approximately 160 km) race, it is obvious that this is not going to be the case. We turned to Michio Saito of Vespa, who has supported top athletes in various endurance races, for help. He said, "In order to finish the race healthy and with a smile on your face, it is important to refuel carefully. Instead of relying on old-fashioned gut feelings, the first step is to properly understand the calories, salt, and water you consume during exercise. This can be derived from a simple equation. From there, we can supplement what we consume with gels and action foods. In other words, replenishment starts with using math and knowing yourself. As a result, you will be able to reduce unnecessary fatigue and strain on your internal organs". I see! I am now keenly aware that the purpose of replenishment is not to charge energy to a tired body, but to keep the body in good condition by replenishing what has been consumed. Thank you, Mr. Saito! I will try to practice this as much as possible at UTMF!

finetrackFine-track gloves

2018_04_addict_yama_3

The glove I got without a second thought.

I wasn't really planning to buy them. However, when I went to a store to buy more gear for a 100-mile race at the end of the month, these gloves caught my eye and I ended up buying them without a second thought. They are made by "Fine Tracks," a Japanese outdoor manufacturer with an established reputation for baselayers. The material used is Merino Spin®, a hybrid of unshrunken merino wool and polyester. The material has excellent heat retention and moisture control properties, suppresses the prickliness characteristic of wool, has improved strength, and is fully equipped with anti-bacterial and deodorant properties. The high-grip material throughout allows for fine-tuned work and support for power walking. Unfortunately, however, sizes M and L are currently out of stock at the manufacturer. The next shipment is expected in September or later, so you may want to keep them on your list for long races in the fall.

eyevolEyevol sunglasses

2018_04_addict_yama_4

Quietly evolving functionality.

As a matter of fact, you don't really need sunglasses in the trail running field. They make it harder to see the uneven terrain underfoot, and once night falls, they are just baggage. But I always carry sunglasses. It's partly just to look cool, partly to hide my shyness so I don't attract attention, and partly because I feel safe when I have them on as a matter of style. The "Ivor," which I love to use both in my private and public life, has a new model in its lineup. Moreover, the functionality has been quietly updated. Variable nose pads for adjustable fit, square hinge pins for stable frame opening and closing, and double-action hinges with longer hinges make it easy to put on and take off. The classic form inherited from "Ivan" can be used on the street, and the light weight of 23 grams is still there. We hope you will take the time to enjoy both the function and design.

This year's partner.

This will be my third consecutive year attending Fuji Rock. For the past two years, I have used a certain brand's fishing vest-type bag, but this year I decided to go with this one! This is a special order from BEAMS PLUS and Mountain Research, who were fascinated by the details of the fishing vest, a product synonymous with Columbia's vests. The vest has been updated for town use. It's great that festival essentials such as rechargeable batteries, bug spray, wet wipes, pocketable chairs, ponchos, Hui-Nam stickers, maglite, wallet, phone, cigarettes, and trash bags can be neatly sorted and stored.

ALITECalpine chair by A-Light.

2018_04_addict_naka_2

Tentative 1st place.

This camping chair has a simple structure that combines a lightweight aluminum pipe frame with a sturdy 600D polyester fabric for the seat. The chair's greatest advantage is its calculated height, the ultimate 38 cm, which ensures a comfortable seat structure, yet allows for easy standing up and bending over without losing balance. Of course, it is foldable and can be stored in its own bag for easy transportation. It is so good that I sometimes use it inside my house. Sitting on it and watching a live concert with a beer in one hand is just great! This is the tentative No. 1 festival chair that I have arrived at in my third year.

F/CEF.C.E.'s ABITAX Outdoor Ashtray

2018_04_addict_naka_3

No littering, ever!

One of the most common problems at festivals is the enormous amount of garbage that is produced. Even Fuji Rock, which has earned the title of "the cleanest festival in the world" both at home and abroad, is having trouble. As a first step, we would like smokers to have this ashtray. The clip closes to seal the ashtray, making it safe to carry and preventing accidental ash spillage. As an "ABITAX" product selected by the Bauhaus Museum Shop in Berlin, it also looks superb when hung from the neck. It is very easy to remove the clip and open the top and bottom to dispose of the cigarette butts inside. Incidentally, it holds about 25 cigarette butts.

MAGLITEMaglite's "Mini Maglite 2nd LED 2AA

2018_04_addict_naka_4

Light illuminating the night road.

The nights at Fuji Rock are long. We drink as much as we can, sweat and dance as long as we can, and before we know it, the sun is just starting to rise. We spend three days like that every time we go to Fuji Rock. So, moving around in the middle of the night is always dangerous. Muddy roads, puddles, cliffs, and the like often make it difficult for us to move around at all, so last year I brought a headlamp with me. However, although it was nice to have both hands free, it was frustrating because the range of visibility was very limited. This is where the "Maglite" emerged. I will have to wait until I actually get there to find out how easy it is to use, but I have high hopes for its light power that can illuminate up to 141 meters away.

Maybe it's a private standard.

Trends can catch up with us on their own without our chasing them. I've been thinking about this a lot lately. When I am tired of trends, there are a few brands that bring me back to a neutral state. They are like ports to which ships return. TS is one such brand. In the end, it is this standard coat that naturally convinces me that this is the kind of thing that fits me. This season, the size has been adjusted to be looser than last season, and it is tailored in checks centering on light beige and chic navy. Flap pockets, large collars, textured materials, fly-front... I feel that what men are looking for is here.

It is not the Statue of Liberty.

As someone who consistently goes to sauna, I don't need to be fashionable for the sauna itself, but I would very much like to see a sauna incorporated into my clothing. And if it is fashionable, that is even better. In reality, however, there are very few things that I can't get my finger on. The logo on this parka by Kohei Makita, a bath lover and winner of the "Idea Award" for his love of baths, is outstanding. The body is plain, but a closer look reveals a subtle parody (pun intended?) of "NEW YOKU = bathing. The logo is a parody (pun?) of "NEW YOKU = Bathing".

The answer to summer in Japan.

From now on, after a sunny spring and rainy season, a gloomy summer will arrive. To answer the question of what kind of clothing is best for such summer measures, there is only one choice: sweat-absorbent, quick-drying T-shirts and shorts. MUJI's sweat-absorbent quick-drying T-shirts are plain in shape and come in a wide variety of colors. The sweat-absorbing, quick-drying shorts are also comfortable to wear, with reflectors on the upper back of the T-shirts and on the sides of the shorts, both of which are effective not only for safety at night, but also in design. And the best part is that they are both inexpensive. Because they are daily necessities that we use every day, it is very nice that they are inexpensive and come in a variety of colors, so we can easily replace them as many times as we like.

A de-sneaker move.

I still wear sneakers most of the time. But lately, I feel that sneakers don't look right with denim. I feel like I'm finally becoming an adult when I start to feel this way. Putting my actual age aside. I feel that Timberland's moccasin shoes, unlike hip-hop yellow boots, have a strong whiff of classy American casual. The insole is soft and easy to wear, and the comfort is like a sneaker, which was a pleasant surprise. The orange insole also works well, and the fact that they look cool even when taken off is probably the strongest proof.

Strangely enough, as the weather gets warmer, I naturally gravitate toward flashy clothing. So this year, I was determined to wear an aloha shirt, and I immediately started looking for one.

At first glance, it may look like just another loose T-shirt with a roomy, generous silhouette and dropped shoulders, but the Buffalo T by Willi Chavarria is different. The carefully calculated cutting and pleats on the back create a beautiful drape when worn. The print is simple, but the impact is strong enough. It is a T-shirt that can be worn alone to complete a look, making it the star of the show. Looking at the recent trend of printed T-shirts, most of them use existing bodies in order to prioritize the impact of the print and keep the cost as low as possible. This is why T-shirts with a special body like this are looking fresh again.

Pants that are two sides of the same coin.

Since its debut last year, "Bow Wow" has been on a tear. While its printed T-shirts with musical themes sampled from famous CD jackets are particularly popular, other items are also quite interesting. The "Inside Out Trousers," for example, are a remake of Dickies' "874," a perennial work pants staple. As the name of the model suggests, the belt loops and the center seam line are turned inside out to show the inside of the pants, creating a mysterious design that is both inside out and inside out. Remaking an existing item by adding and subtracting is a process that requires the creator's sense of style. These pants are a good example.

I was reminded once again that this item is a very clever combination of the Fred Perry style and the Raf Simons style. It is a simple polo shirt with Raf's signature duct tape on the collar and sides, but it is the birth of a "new item! The impact of this new item is not half as great as you might think.

This open-collar shirt has such a beautiful sheen that you can tell how good it feels against the skin. The pattern on the front, which resembles bird feathers, is disastrous or chaotic, and the coloring, which is not often seen, is also captivating. The moderate weight, which can only be found in items made of well-finished rayon, is also wonderful. Once again, this is a brand that you should go and see for yourself.

New models are updated frequently, and in the past they have collaborated with R&B singer August Alsina and "Vinyl Archive," and the number of models at "ADSR" is dizzying, and the reasonable prices are also quite pleasing. In the end, however, I spent last year squinting in the sunlight because I looked at too many sunglasses and lost my sense of translation, so this is the year I will wear these "LAURYN".

It's already been a month since I joined the Huinamu editorial office. I've started a new life, and I want to try many new things. This year is definitely the year....

PRETTY THINGSPretty Things Souvenir Tote

2018_04_addict_miya_1

A chic guy who buys them by accident.

I usually use a backpack, but this type of tote is easy to carry for short trips out and about. They can be folded for compact storage when not in use and are reasonably priced. I tend to buy them at museum stores and thrift stores as souvenirs. This tote, picked up from one of the many collections, is from "PRETTY THINGS," a coffee stand in Komazawa. The black-and-white print of a foreign woman is impressive. PRETTY THINGS" was named by Uichi Yamamoto, a space producer who serves as the owner. As it means a place with many Pretty Things, the store is equipped with antique chandeliers and a high-quality sound system. Of course, go there for a delicious cup of coffee, but be sure to check out the Souvenir Corner as well.

REDDISH BROWNReddish Brown Thermal

2018_04_addict_miya_2

The ultimate basic.

This season is warm during the day but chilly in the morning and at night. I always worry about what to wear when going outside before leaving home. The best solution to such weather problems is a thermal with a moderately thick fabric. The irregular weave of the fabric is excellent for heat retention, so it is definitely warmer than a long-sleeved T-shirt. I was introduced to the "Reddish Brown" thermals by a senior colleague. The vintage model has been remodeled with a shorter length and a slightly looser width for everyday wear. The fabric is tough, so you can wear it with gusto and wash it over and over again. The comfortable feel of the high quality made-in-Japan cotton is also a pleasure to enjoy. We can't help but buy more of these basic items.

Adult formal wear.

I find myself just before my thirties. Local friends, classmates, and even juniors are getting married one after another, and some of them have two children at an early age. I feel that I have become an adult. When I think of a symbol of adulthood, I associate it with a suit. At work, I dress casually, and on my days off, I always wear a casual parka, sweatshirt, and work pants. So I don't have many opportunities to wear a suit. But at my age, there are more and more occasions to attend weddings and parties several times a year. What I would like to wear on such occasions is a black suit by . The slim silhouette and peaked lapel collar used in tuxedos are also stylish. At my age, I want to have at least one suit that I can wear with style. I want to gradually become an adult who looks good in a suit.

visvimBizbim coveralls

2018_04_addict_miya_4

The strangeness of denim making.

I was in charge of a denim feature in a men's fashion magazine to which I belonged before joining the Huinamu editorial department. The project was to compare various brands of denim, so I studied the details and fabrics. Among the many brands, I felt that "Bizbim" was the one that made products with the greatest attention to detail. The dyeing and weaving of the fabrics are intricate, and the products are sure to make connoisseurs groan. When I was looking for denim items from "Bizbim," I found these selvedge denim coveralls. The original denim fabric, which was developed from spinning, skillfully blends long and short slubs to create a denim look with depth. The moderately damaged finish and the uneven fading of the fabric are also odd. This is a glimpse of the essence of "Bizbim," which has been pursuing the unique aging process of vintage denim.

I've been with the company for one month. There are a lot of things I don't know.

I am an old rookie who joined Addict this time. Everything I do is a "first" for me. I feel freshness and frustration of not being able to do anything. April is not a very pleasant month for me!

elephant TRIBAL fabricsElephant Tribal Fabrics Jacket

2018_04_addict_kimu_1

I am playing with it a great deal. This shape, this finish.

Elephant Tribal Fabrics" started in 2013. There are probably many people who have never heard of it. However, the brand has been releasing interesting collections every time, and is a brand that I personally need to keep an eye on. And this jacket. This jacket is not a spay jacket for fishing of "Babur," but a jacket designed based on it. The fabric is made of mesh bonding. The fabric is made of mesh bonding, which makes it light and comfortable to wear, and the mesh provides excellent breathability. It will be very useful in the coming season. The mesh bonding fabric makes it difficult to imagine the shape of the garment when worn, but the sleeve pattern was created through a trial and error process, allowing for a stress-free fit and smooth arm movement. This playfulness, uniqueness, and functionality. It's a hit.

Edwina HoerlEdwina Hall's pants.

2018_04_addict_kimu_2

Classy wide pants.

I like wide pants. I like them regardless of whether they are fashionable or not. I like them, but it's hard to find something that fits well. However, Edwina Hall's wide pants always fit me well. They are not crude, and even have a touch of elegance. The material used is a unique fabric called "cut jacquard," and the wavy pattern is formed by repeatedly changing the threads while stopping the loom. It is 100% cotton, so it is smooth and comfortable to wear. A tapered model and a jacket are also available in the same material, so you can wear them as a set-up. As someone who travels on business, it is also nice that they are wrinkle resistant.

ORPHICOrphic Shoes

2018_04_addict_kimu_3

Ideal hybrid of leather shoes and sneakers.

I love the form and texture of leather shoes, but my feet inevitably get tired after wearing them for long periods of time. It is often said that "fashion is patience," but I don't seem to be able to put up with it very well. No, I can't stand it any longer. So, in such a case, "ORPHIC" is a good choice. This is the standard "HELLION PREMO" model. Although we present a unique collection every time, this is a standard model called "HELLION PREMO. The upper is a dress shoe no matter where you cut it off. And the sole is "Vibram". The Vibram logo is clearly visible on the side of the sole. This is a pair that can be worn from formal to casual wear, which Orphic advocates. When it comes to versatility, nothing comes close to Orphic's.

TOGA VIRILISToga Billies coin purse

2018_04_addict_kimu_4

I wanted a cute coin case.

"Folding a bill and putting it in your wallet will bring you bad luck!" I used to use a long wallet until the other day, because I am a person who believes in such things. I used to use a long wallet until the other day, but it was too heavy, too big, and too much of a hassle when I had to go from home to the convenience store. So I stopped thinking about money luck anymore! Basically, I switched to a bifold wallet for bills and cards, and to this one from "toga Billies" for coins. It has ample storage capacity, a color scheme that is typical of "TOGA BILLYLEES," silver conchos, and seams that show off. Every time I take it out of my pocket, I get a little more excited. The strap on the back can be attached to a belt hole. Every season, "TOGA BILLYLEES" releases a coin purse in a beautiful color scheme. This one is exceptionally beautiful.
