Time to concentrate only on the music.
What kind of town is Shibuya for you?
Love and hate.
What social issues are you most interested in right now?
Issues of gender and racism. I feel really sad about a society that is intolerant of others in all those ways.
A lightweight "M-65" type coat with PrimaLoft. This is a piece that can be worn as a light outerwear or layered with items such as inner down jackets. The camo pattern design is also a key point, as it is not too assertive.

What is the point of today's outfit?
A luxurious leather B-3 jacket is daringly mixed with an earthy, vintage item of clothing. I wear it with the collar standing up to suit my style. By daring to close the chinstrap, it is warm because it keeps out the wind.
What are your impressions of wearing Alpha Industries' outerwear?
The texture of the supple, soft leather and the comfort of the fur were great. I usually think of B-3 jackets as too stiff for my broad shoulders, but the softness of the leather allows the shoulders to fall firmly.
What do you keep in mind when wearing military outerwear in the city?
To avoid looking like a costume, dare to pair it with classic leather shoes and slacks to balance the earthiness and innocence of the outfit. Also, army green military outerwear often adds colors such as orange, red, and yellow to the coordination points.
Music to listen to in winter
I'd like to hear a country song or something, so "I Gotta Get Drunk" by The Little Willies would be good.
What does Instagram mean to you?
A simple but very important tool to express yourself. It is also something that many people see, believe, and are swept away by. If you use it well, it can create unexpected value, so recently I've been thinking of it as a part of my personality.
This "B-3 TYPE" flight jacket was adopted by the Army Air Corps in the 1930s as a cold-weather uniform. The jacket is made of sheepskin that can be enjoyed as it ages, and features boas throughout to enhance comfort and warmth. The collar can also be worn as a stand collar.
