NIGHT WANDERING with ALPHA INDUSTRIES

Wandering around Shibuya at night , Alpha Industries and contemporary youth.

ALPHA INDUSTRIES is synonymous with flight jackets representing the United States. While its origins lie in military products manufactured to military specifications, the brand has now established a familiar position for many fashion users, especially young people. This time, Tokyo youths with a fresh sense of fashion showed style samples wearing the new outerwear that will be their partner in midwinter. We followed eight of them in their real-life outfits in Shibuya at night.

What is the brand image of Alpha Industries?

I have the impression that you have successfully adapted military wear to your everyday life.

What is your rule when choosing outerwear?

More than the design and functionality of the product itself, it is whether it suits your style.

What do you feel about the recent fashion scene?

The fact that there is a ragtag group of teenagers with an abundance of talent.

What movies do you want to see in the winter?

HOME ALONE

What country would you most like to visit and why?

After all, it is New Zealand. It's my second home.


This N-3B jacket with high thermal protection is useful for crew members and ground workers in heavy zones such as extremely cold regions. It has been modified to fit the Japanese body shape and features a slightly tight silhouette. The camo pattern with a strong presence, hood boa, and military-style details in various parts make this jacket look good on the street scene.

The hooded MA-1 is the centerpiece of the outfit, with other items in dark tones.

The fact that it was lighter than expected while having a good volume and warmth.

Dubai! I want to see the beautiful night view of the skyscraper city.

What kind of lifestyle do you want to lead in 10 years?

What is your favorite type of the opposite sex?

Someone who is masculine and protective.


A street-style MA-1 with a detachable hood and a silhouette rearranged for women's specifications. The layered feel that can be enjoyed twice in one piece, and the red color that can also be used to accentuate your outfits, are both impressive. The slightly larger size is also not to be missed.
