UNITED ARROWS LUMINE Shinjuku Tatsuki Inagaki, age 29

(PIRENEX for UNITED ARROWS) outer ¥110,000+TAX, (Auralee) T-shirt ¥13,000+TAX, (UNITED ARROWS) pants ¥18,000+TAX, (Clarks Originals for UNITED ARROWS) shoes ¥23,000+TAX (all at UNITED ARROWS Shinjuku store) , all other items: personal effects of the designer

. Why do you recommend this outerwear?

This is a special-order model for "United Arrows" based on the best-selling "Annecy" model from "Pyrenex," and there are many points I would like to emphasize. First of all, the pattern of the arms and the construction around the shoulders are three-dimensional and stress-free, and it has excellent water repellency, so it is sufficient to protect against light rain. . The simple design for town use makes it easy to match with a suit, making it a perfect choice for adult men in their 30s and 40s.

You mean you can wear it both on and off the job.

The color of the brand logo has been changed to black for the special-order model, making it less noticeable and easier to style. The fur around the hood has sufficient volume and can be removed. The mid-length design hides the hem even when worn over a suit or jacket, allowing you to enjoy coordinating it both on and off the job.

What is the point of today's coordination?

We dared to choose classic plaid pants and imagined a chic off-duty look. The pants have a center press for a clean look.

Do you have a favorite restaurant in Shinjuku?

It is a restaurant called Akasaka Umaya Shinjuku, located in the JR Kyushu Hotel. The restaurant is directed by kabuki actor Ennosuke Ichikawa, and I sometimes go there 3 times a week because I like the relaxed atmosphere and homey taste. Also, there are many foreigners who come to Japan on overseas trips, so I sometimes recommend "Lumine the Yoshimoto" to them to experience Japanese comedy (laughs).

This special order from "Pyrenex," a leading French down brand that has a corner in its directly managed store in Paris, department stores, and select stores, has been changed from the existing one to a more expressive nylon moleskin. The luxurious use of high-quality down provides a high level of warmth. ¥110,000+TAX (UNITED ARROWS Shinjuku Store)
