Long time no see and nice to meet you. Walking with the two of you, the reborn Shinpukan.
Go to brand new "ShinPuhKan

Nice to see you and nice to meet you.
Walking with the two, the reborn Shinpukan.

The word "Onkyo-Chishin" is an apt description of the city of Kyoto. While preserving the good old scenery, Kyoto is open to young creators and the next generation of culture, and its unique mix of old and new has evolved the city of Kyoto. This philosophy is reflected in the Shinpukan, which was renovated after a four-year recharging period, retaining the retro building of the Kyoto Central Telephone Station completed in 1926 and housing a number of ongoing tenants, including Japan's first "Ace Hotel. The two visited the newly renovated Shinpukan, FPM's Tomoyuki Tanaka, who was born and raised in Kyoto and has known the area for a long time, and model Mineyoshi Kotani, who was visiting for the first time, freely browsed the stores, watched movies, tasted sweets, tried on yukata (light cotton kimono), and played records. They also take a close-up look at the charms of each of them. They will give you hints on how to enjoy Shinpukan to the fullest!

A kimono tailor who has made traditional Japanese dress more accessible.

A concept store in Kanda, Tokyo, produced by "Yamato," a kimono shop that has been in business for 100 years, has entered the city. Under the concept of "Men's Kimono Tailor," the shop proposes a chic image of men that incorporates kimono into a modern way of dressing.

The last one is a kimono specialty store. Have you ever worn a kimono or yukata before?

Once a year, I DJ at the "Rohm Theater Kyoto" wearing a yukata. Also, my parents live in Nishijin, and since I was a child, I often saw tea ceremony performers dressed in kimono. . I do not have any hurdles against wearing Japanese kimonos.

The yukata that the manager, Masatoshi Seino, chose for Mr. Tanaka looks great on him.

Thank you . This design is by Jakuchu Ito, right?

Y. & SONS' yukata ¥49,000+TAX with a powerful military cock on a jet black body, Y. & SONS' obi ¥39,000+TAX with reversible linen and silk.

As one would expect, you know your stuff.

He is a painter that Kyoto is proud of in the world. . Nowadays, his paintings are printed on the shutters of stores in Nishiki Market, his hometown, and it is like a gallery.

This is a piece of artwork called "Gundori" (military cock). . It is made of organic cotton, so it is comfortable to wear, and it is tailored to order, so it fits very well.

Items using Jakuchu Ito's paintings are designed not only yukata but also open-collar shirts. The one that Mr. Tanaka picked up is from the work titled "Moonlit Basho.

I see that you also select hats made by Takayuki Kijima, who is also a good friend of mine in private life. I happen to be wearing one of his hats today.

. He says that his main line of hats fits kimonos and yukatas as well.

By wearing this, kimono, which used to be an unusual item of clothing, has become very familiar to people. It seems that you can wear kimonos and yukatas in the city without feeling uncomfortable.

. In addition to hats, we also offer a number of contemporary items that go well with Japanese attire, such as a coat from "Norwegian Rain" that can be thrown over a rough coat to repel rain, and a collaboration T with "Graphpaper" that was developed as an inner lining for yukata (a type of summer kimono).

It can be used not only for kimono, but also for everyday casual styling.

It fits very comfortably. . If you use it for everyday wear, you will be able to assert the Japanese element in a subtle way.

It's stylish to propose a chic style that focuses on kimono and yukata without sticking too closely to them. I would like to wear a yukata this summer, too, and stroll the streets in style.
