PROFILE
Born in 1981 in Aomori , Japan. He is in charge of the press for "As," a select store that has garnered support for its excellent selection of new and used clothing, mainly American casual, with a touch of street style. At first glance, he appears to be quiet and tough-looking, but in fact he is a baseball fool who is not very good at talking.

Those who demand toughness in their shoes will be pleased with this one.
Do you wear "Converse" sneakers on a regular basis?
I have quite a few pairs due to my occupation, and Converse has been my favorite brand for a long time. I used to collect vintage American-made shoes. I used to collect a lot of vintage American-made shoes. I guess it is especially true for my generation, but I have an image of Converse shoes as "items that symbolize America," and that is the reason why I like them so much.
You are also a biker. What do you usually wear when you ride your motorcycle?
Basically, a motorcycle is a vehicle in which you change gears by lifting and lowering the shift pedal with your foot, but in the case of my bike, it is a little different. Of course, I often wear "All Star" shoes myself, and they work very well.
The "All Star 100" that you wore this time is a pair that has evolved to be tough and functional, with a flame pattern as well as a Tencel ™️ canvas upper for improved durability and a React Cup insole for superior cushioning and fit.
. It is true that the fabric is firm and durable. This will be appreciated not only by bikers, but also by skaters, bicycle riders, and others who demand toughness in their shoes. Personally, I prefer the low-cut version, but I like the foam in the shoe tongue and the stiffness of the upper, which makes it easy to put on and take off. The thickness and cushioning of this insole is just right, and after wearing them like this for the first time in a while, the high cut is also a possibility!
What is the point of today's coordination?
A post-dyed camouflage pattern military jacket with embroidered beto-janes and thick work pants are paired with a rugged, "as" look. . And on the feet, the flame patterned "All Star 100" is the perfect finishing touch. If you want to match them in a different way, sweatpants would be fine. If you wear regular "All-Stars" with them, they would be too sporty, but I think the flame pattern would neutralize the masculine smell and create a well-balanced look.
I think that many of the customers who visit "As" also like flame patterns.
In fact, the percentage of "Converse" is quite high in the first place. The motifs associated with motorcycle, American car, and skate culture also tickle men's fancy, and I think there are a lot of people who like them. The color scheme based on white is also a nice touch, and I think it will be fun to wear in a variety of ways. The timing is just right for the renewal of the "As" store, and there are many items that will fit the "All Star 100," so please come and visit us.
ALL STAR 100 IGNT HI ¥8,800 The All Star Ignite, first released in 2000, was popular for its flame pattern used in the good old American custom culture of cars and motorcycles. The same model has been made tougher and more functional with TENCEL™️ canvas and React Cup insoles.
