I hope this project has become a once-a-month pleasure for you! I hope this project has become a once-a-month pleasure for you! So, let's get started!
It will be autumn before we know it. In the forest behind my house, cicadas are still singing, but that will soon be over. . Every day I feel the joy of being able to wear autumn clothes. . I am a fashion lover, after all.
It is a dress without a front or back.
If you were to ask me, "Where is the hottest restaurant in Tokyo right now?" the first thing that comes to mind is "Reshop. The other day, they started offering women's wear as well, and their momentum is only increasing. Just strolling through the store, one is filled with positive feelings about fashion. The house label of "Reshop" is "Repurpose. Each season, the label continues to produce clothes that are popular among experts, or rather, clothes that are only popular among experts, and this season's reversible coat is one that is surprisingly versatile. The beige and black sides of the coat are both very useful. There is also a secondhand Burberry coat in the store right now, and I'm having a hard time deciding which way to go. . what should I do?

It looks good just by placing it.
There is a store called "Paddler's Coffee" in Nishihara, Shibuya-ku. Whenever I go there, the vibes are always extremely good. Peaceful staff, great coffee and hot dogs, and a laid-back interior. It's just so cozy. Recently, a new restaurant called "Bullpen" has opened, which concentrates this exquisite sense of interior design. The store is filled with sundries collected by the owner, Daisuke Matsushima, from both Japan and overseas. What personally caught my eye were the African baskets made in the Volga region , the capital of the Upper East Province of Ghana, Africa. Baskets have been creating a secret boom in these days, but the wavy design of the sides cannot be found anywhere else. Also, the simple colors, without using any of the extreme colors that are typical of Africa, are wonderful. The raw material is a perennial grass of the Poaceae family native to Africa. It can be used as an interior accent or as a container for small objects. This is a great tool.

. fascinated by deerskin.
. I've been aware of it for a while, but I seem to like deerskin. I like its silky feel, its moderate graininess, its texture, and its visibility. I also like the accessories brand "Cinq" that I found at a trade show, as you might expect. The brand "Cinq" is characterized by its skillful mastication of Native American culture and taste, but this series has a more urban direction with a moderately subdued native feel, giving us a glimpse into a new side of the brand. Briefcases, wallets, and everything else is getting smaller and smaller these days, but if you are going to choose something small, you should be particular about how small it is. Also, "Cinq" is a brand based in Shonan, and as a resident of Kamakura, I feel a sense of familiarity with the brand.

A rebellious piece of clothing.
There are people who dress up for formal occasions such as weddings, funerals, and ceremonies, not in formal attire, but in a slightly unconventional way. I admire the way they dress up, not because they are inclined to do so, but because they adhere to their own code of conduct. . However, this kind of arrangement is very difficult. If you don't have style, you will only look disgraceful. If I were to deviate from the rule by half a step, I would wear a collarless jacket by "Rainmaker. . The quality of the jacket and the quality of the workmanship can be clearly seen in the photo. The minimalist beauty of the form is much more formal than a tuxedo. Not only that, this piece of clothing has an unfathomable punk-like attitude. The dichotomy of the two is irresistible.

I traveled all the way to Chamonix , and it turned out to be a disappointment.... Damn! Damn! I must get revenge! I'll keep working hard for that, and I have the "OSJ KOUMI 100" coming up in October.
It can be used in three seasons, and is a convenient piece of clothing to have.
In recent years, the design of "Salomon" has been very good. Instead of visualizing functionality like other so-called outdoor brands, Salomon's designs are simple and clean, while providing top-range performance. Thanks to this, they fit in easily in all situations, from the extreme field to town use. Among these, we recommend this middle layer for this season. The thin fleece lining with excellent warmth retention properties has an uneven grid structure that is both breathable and quick-drying. The hood type uses a balaclava style to keep the head warm. This is an easy-to-use middle layer that can be used in three seasons (fall, winter, and spring), not only as a cloak in chilly weather, but also as an inner layer when the weather is cold. It is a convenient piece to have in your wardrobe.

It looks like this, but it is moisture absorbent, quick drying, and lightweight.
Although I occasionally participate in middle to ultra trail races, I usually don't run that long of a distance. The longest distance I run is about 30 km at most, and most of that is on the road. . So, I don't have to dress up like I do for a race, so I wear the same clothes I normally wear (shorts and a T-shirt in summer). However, as fall approaches and I begin to feel the chill in the air, I decided it was time to get a long-sleeved sweatshirt, and Mountain Hardwear had a good selection. It looks just like a sweatshirt, but the material used is moisture absorbent, quick drying, and lightweight. The handwarmer pockets on the sides will come in handy for storing small items. The original graphics by Masashi Shimizu, who is well versed in trail culture, and the authentic collegiate-style lettering are an excellent match. It will be useful for everyday wear, daily jogging, and even a short hike.

A chic looking zero drop.
Jogging on a daily basis is considered to be training, and I dare to choose shoes that put a lot of stress on my feet. So-called "natural motion" training shoes. . I don't usually rely on cushioning or rebound, and I hope to reap the benefits of this in the race of the day. I would like to introduce you to a pair of shoes by Merrell, a shoe manufacturer well-known for its Jungle Moc. The heel and toe are flattened to a zero-drop form, and the outsole uses a Vibram sole with excellent grip. In addition, since it also has excellent flexibility, it reproduces the original movement of the foot, and the load that cannot be obtained in so-called running shoes will lead to the strengthening of the foot as a result. In addition, the full-grain leather that matches the upper, although breathability is scarce, because it produces a chic atmosphere so as to compensate for it, it is likely to be active as daily wear.

The trail runner's attention to detail is concentrated.
I went all the way to Chamonix to participate in the CCC, but the cold weather destroyed me... . I'm shocked that I decided to retire during the race, but I can't stay depressed. In October, I will be participating in the OSJ KOUMI 100, a five-week, 32-kilometer, 100-mile race. I have chosen a Gregory sack as a good partner for the race. The front pocket has a bottle pocket, a zippered pocket perfect for storing a smartphone, and a stretch pocket with high storage capacity, all of which can be divided into smaller pockets depending on the purpose. The original system, which is unique to Gregory and is known for its fitting performance, provides a stress-free carrying comfort. Incidentally, I chose the 8-liter type, which neatly fits all the essentials for a 100-mile race. The time limit is 36 hours. I know it will be difficult for me, but this 100-mile race is also a valuable opportunity for me to determine the direction I want to take in the future. I hope to enjoy myself to the fullest with this sack.

In addition to the tension-lock buckle fastening belt on the instep, the tongue is secured with elastic so that the shoes can be worn without laces.

Hip bottles to have.
Stainless steel bottles are convenient to have. However, when you look around a store, you will find a wide variety of bottles, but there is not much difference in terms of functionality, and it is really difficult to know what to choose. But the "Hydro Flask" was something different. In addition to the functional aspects of excellent heat (and cold) retention, comfort, and ease of use in a wide range of categories such as hydration, coffee, beer, and food, it also offers a wide variety of colors and an iconic design that fits in with the outdoor scene. In addition, the special powder-coated surface makes them easy to hold and non-slip. This coffee bottle is packed with a little bit of "usefulness. And the fact that it originated in Oregon is hip, too.

Good form! Good function!
In recent years, I have been fond of coats, and I have a complete lineup of coats, including variations in color and shape, but this coat made of a high-performance fabric was a blind spot for me. When high-performance fabrics are used, the design usually tends to become outdoorsy, but I was surprised to see a classic Tylocken coat. A boxy silhouette with a generous width is made of eVent, which excels in waterproofing and breathability. In other words, the latest materials are used to create an authentic shape, which is the new standard for the current era. It can be worn in spring and fall, of course, but it can also be worn in winter if you wear an inner down inside. In the winter, when the heating temperature is set too high on trains and in stores, it may be more appropriate to wear a highly breathable coat like this one instead of an outer down coat.

Interest that is excessive .
Sillage" just started in July this year. Sillage is a French designer's brand, which means "footprint," "shadow," "afterimage," or the scent or presence left behind after someone has passed through a certain place. Incidentally, the brand has already popped up at the famous MAIDENS SHOP. At the moment, only pants and T-shirts are available, and the pants are all "thick is right". These pants are pleated and slightly tapered. The excessiveness of the pants, beyond the appropriate thickness, even has a mode-like aroma. If you ask the origin of the thick pants, it is because he is large and there were no thick pants that he could wear. It is not a well-made concept, but something that was created for a very personal reason that is interesting in this day and age. This is a brand that we look forward to checking out in the future, as they are planning to develop products other than pants as well.

Wearable logo T-shirt.
Speaking of "Nike ACG," as someone who experienced the "urban outdoors" movement of the 1990s, when people used the outdoors as street wear (even though the term "urban outdoors" did not exist), I have a special feeling about the brand. Personally, I rarely wear T-shirts with a brand's logo printed on them, but ACG is special. Moreover, the exquisite coloring that is typical of ACG and the graphical specifications using the old rounded logos of a, c, and G are of a high degree of perfection. Moreover, it is made of quick-drying material. There are many quick-drying T-shirts with plain, uninspiring designs. Pop, yet highly functional. This T-shirt is the essence of "Nike ACG," which has created many followers, and will be useful not only for outdoor activities in the coming season, but also as an inner T-shirt in the fall and winter.

The balance between quality and price is egregious.
My 30-liter backpack that I had been using almost every day was finally reaching the end of its useful life. As a replacement, I started using this backpack. I am satisfied with the plain design and all-black color suitable for daily use, and the many small pockets inside the bag, such as a PC sleeve, and the high level of practicality that can only be understood by using the bag. The two compartments, one in the front and one in the back, allow for stress-free separation of flat items such as documents and a PC from bulky items such as clothes. The designer has designed bags for such well-known brands as Nike, The North Face, and Eastpak, and I can see how the fusion of functionality and design has been cultivated in this way. The orange color of the bag has many pockets, and even I, who am not very good at keeping things organized, was surprised to find that I can naturally keep things organized by deciding to put my phone here and my notepad there. I was surprised at the quality and the price! I was surprised in a good way, so please check out these bags.

The star of this winter is set.
The cold weather reminds me of the end of summer and the beginning of winter. . . In the mornings, I just look at my closet and wonder what to wear. I feel like a lost child... (laughs). At that time, I suddenly noticed a chester coat from Blumink. The beautiful, flowing lines of this slightly oversized coat are impressive, and it feels great against the skin. The fabric is made of "SUPER160'S" melton, known for its high quality and moist texture. Moreover, it is double woven, so it has a firm tension. The use of exquisite colors that are a bit dull makes the item look strangely not gaudy when worn. This is a gem that you will want to wear as the star of this winter's show.

This fall/winter, British Taste is on my mind. Chesterfield coats, tweed jackets, corduroy pants, ribbed sweaters . . I've been dressing in street-style outfits all spring and summer, but I'd like to dress a little more classy and clean. The photo is a pair of slacks from "Beauty & Youth" that I saw at a trade show and have been eyeing ever since. They are made of brown glen check wool, but the shape is tapered toward the hem, so they are not too classic and do not make you look like an "old man" when you wear them. Sneakers are good, but desert boots or leather shoes would also look good with them. The affordable price is also attractive.

On September 10, a new sacosh in collaboration with "Dumonks" went on sale! If you recall, this project started in January of this year. I wanted to create a "HOUYHNHNM's" style satchel using Dumonks' proven techniques and high quality leather. However, there was no way I could immediately create exactly what I had in mind... I kept asking the brand to make samples for me over and over again, trying to figure out what was right and what was wrong. I realized how difficult it is to make something, but I think we came up with something surprisingly good (laughs). The text by contemporary artist Ken Kagami, which looks as if it was drawn directly on the leather, is accented with a water-repellent finish, so it can be used on rainy days without any problems. I recommend it for people who are basically hand-free! The secret story behind the production isThis articleLearn more at .

Living alone, you cannot escape from doing laundry. It's fine on weekends when you have time, but on weekdays, it's hard to run the washing machine after work. . Especially when washing your favorite T-shirts, shirts, pants, and so on. . I would like to recommend the commercial laundry nets sold at the Diand Department Store. What attracted me to this product was its bright color! Moreover, since it was developed by a manufacturer specializing in hotel supplies, it is made of polyester yarn that is thicker than that used in commercial products. It seems that you don't have to worry about it tearing even if you use it many times in a household washing machine. . Since it has a zipper, there is no need to worry about the items you put in it popping out during the washing process.

On the eve of the UK boom .
UK fashion, which has been absent for quite a while, is now in the limelight for the first time in a long while. If you go to select stores, you will find long-established British brands and special-order items. On this eve of the UK boom, I personally want to wear "Stone Island. Isn't it an Italian brand? But no, it is a brand that is deeply rooted in British culture. It is a well-known story that the brand has been popular as a battle uniform for hooligans, and has been used by artists such as UK garage, current grime, UK hip-hop, and gallagher's. For the rough-and-tumble guys, the sporty and tough "Stone Island" clothes were easy to move in and were good for them. If you want to wear it in the current mood, I think it would be a good idea to wear it with a solid-texture sweatshirt and track pants to create a 2018 version of casuals.

Next, we pick up "Dr. Martens" in the UK fashion trend. When one thinks of "Dr. Martens," the first thing that comes to mind is punk culture. The cherry-red 8-hole shoes were an icon of the working class, and have remained a stalwart symbol of the working class. As a teenager, I was no exception, and I remember going to live music clubs wearing an 8-hole with a white string through the middle of it. I also wore 10-hole shoes, 3-hole shoes, and my shoe box was filled with "Dr. Martens" before I knew it. Thus, "air wear" became a part of my body. After that, the "Dr. Martens" boom came and went periodically. My current mood is black "Chelsea Boots. I like the indescribable position of these dress shoes made by a work boot maker. They are the perfect shoes for those times when you want to dress a little stylishly but not forget your street attitude.

Imagine, a select store in Nakatsu, Osaka, recently celebrated its first anniversary. . It has already been a year since we interviewed the shop at the time of its opening. As is well known, Imagine has made such great strides since then that it is hard to believe that it is just a local store, and its influence has now reached a nationwide scale. It has grown to the point where it has become a hot spot among clothing enthusiasts. One of the reasons why so many people are so enthusiastic about the store is the special custom-made products that can only be purchased here. These elaborate items are all very interesting, but the special orders at Imagine don't stop there. Even the brand names are special-ordered. For example, this is a "700 FILL" logo cap, but if you look closely, you can see that the letters in the logo are "600 FILL. This is the kind of quip that only an Osaka native could make, and it was so funny that I bought it without thinking.

Now that it's finally getting chilly, I pulled out my fall/winter clothes from the back of the closet, and when I looked at my wardrobe again, I realized that I have a lot of "Captain Sunshine" clothes. For example, there were about six pieces of autumn/winter outerwear alone. I know that "Captain Sunshine" makes clothes in the genres that I personally like, but what I think sets it apart is that it understands tradition and heritage, and designs for today. I am always struck by their sense of balance, where the roots of their designs are felt, but they never seem old-fashioned. For example, the items that Sierra Designs and BEAMS PLUS have collaborated on are just one example of this. The maniacal selection of down shirts was a hit, and the use of classic outdoor colors such as orange, purple, and green was great. But the fit is modern, and the fabric has an elegant texture, so it blends in easily with your regular outfits. This piece made me realize once again how much I love Captain Sunshine.

Knit items are always something I want to wear in the winter. I especially like crew-neck and turtleneck types, and have a variety of them.

The texture is excellent, and the warmth is superior to that of cashmere. Finger holes on the cuffs allow for full coverage up to the back of the hands when it is cold. There are many knits from many brands this season, but my personal best of knit is this one. Give it a try.

Corduroy season has arrived.
. Since the beginning of this year, there has been a gradual shift in orientation from wide silhouette bottoms to slimmer ones. The "502 Corduroy" from Levi's® is particularly suited to the current mood. The loose taper from the knee to the hem and the fine-ribbed corduroy remind me of the arrival of fall. With big silhouettes flourishing, items like this look very fresh. These corduroy pants were a favorite of American students in the 1960s. They look great with coin loafers and low-tech sneakers, just like the Ivies of the time. Of course, the color should be light. By the way, only the light gray one on the right in the photo has a "BIG E" pith name.

Hoodie with an edge.
I first encountered "John Links" in the summer of the year before last. I was introduced to the brand by the owner when I visited Trali, a highly sensitive store in Hirao, Fukuoka, where local surfers and clothing enthusiasts gather. Originally a women's brand, the shop displayed shirts and skirts with open chests, but it also carried some men's items. Since then, I have been checking the store regularly, and this hoodie has whetted my appetite. It has a big slit on the side, and the length of the front and back body is different. This detail with just the right amount of edge helps accentuate the styling. In addition, since it is made of high quality cotton, you can experience the ultimate in comfort. It looks good to wear in a slightly larger size.

I recently came across a YouTube channel called Asitanowadai. As the name of the channel suggests, it delivers videos that will be the talk of tomorrow, but sometimes, "What's this?" . . Something cryptic is shown or uttered. I am also interested in the speculations that fly around the Internet.
The strangeness of the pattern.
I don't care about trends!" I don't care about trends!" Despite my exhortations to the contrary, I have caught on to the current trends and am gliding lightly on the wave of them. . That's why the pants I've been picking up lately have been thick. . If there is a sense of fun in the design, I reach for them even more. And then there is Henrik Vibskov's denim, which has been a part of my family's wardrobe since this fall. The brand offers unique products every season, but these denim items are the most playful of all. Although it is hard to tell since the image does not show the wearer, the extra-thick silhouette, diagonal button holes, and seams that are placed closer to the front than usual make it possible to coordinate the entire outfit with just these denims, even if the top is plain and tasteless. The washed color is also a favorite.

Memorabilia once again.
I was in junior high school when I started to develop a fashionable spirit and wanted to buy cool sneakers. I spent a lot of money to buy a pair of Reebok DAYTONA DMXs, which I used as my school shoes. About a week after I started wearing them, I had a swimming class and had to change in a private bathroom. As I took off my shoes, pulled down my pants, and changed into my swimsuit, I kicked off my shoes with a thump. . Unfortunately, the toilet there was a pumping toilet. . My shoes instantly disappeared into the darkness. The DAYTONA DMX with such bitter memories was finally reissued this year. I couldn't help but pick up a pair. And it is all black, a coloring that was not available back then. Since I was only able to spend a week with them last time, I am prepared to wear them out this time while chewing them up.

Reebok Classic

A meaty classic.
South 2 West 8" has appeared many times in this project, but as a native of Hokkaido, I have a strong emotional attachment to this brand. It is no exaggeration to say that I frequented the store on Minami 2-jo Nishi 8-chome in Sapporo, where I cultivated my fashion literacy. No, I hope so. This fleece is thick, heavy, and extremely warm. . It is a piece of clothing that can withstand the Hokkaido winter. It has excellent heat retention properties. I also like the classic look and the wide width of the body. The holiday season is about to begin. This fall, I plan to wear this to relax outside and have a yaki-imo (baked sweet potato) party.

There is even a third form.
It's time to wear knit hats. As a hat lover, I am delighted. This hat from Edwina Hall is more than just a knit cap. It can be worn in three different ways. First, it can be worn straight on. The second is to add another fold, and the third is to turn the hat inside out. The silhouette is different in each of these ways of wearing the hat, and of course, the hat is designed with this in mind, so there is no sense of discomfort at all. We have released the same type of hat every season, but they have been sold out one after another. This season, too, the number of items seems to be getting smaller at the moment, so if you are interested, be sure to get yours as soon as possible.
