Take me to the green.

I've been somewhat interested in golf lately. The moment you think of it, it's a good day! I just have to put it into practice! Chashu-meen! However, I don't even know how to grip the ball, so I'm looking for golfing buddies. First of all, I'm going to hit some shots this weekend!

Yin Year

In-ear eyewear

Depth optics.

Even dumplings get boring after three days of eating them. Even my favorite food is like that, so it is even more so with the soy sauce face that I have been looking at for more than 30 years. When I get tired of gyoza sauce, I move on to vinegared pepper sauce, and black-rimmed glasses for a face with no taste. This is how my journey to find eyewear has continued for a long time. The new Japanese brand "Inyear" put an end to this long journey. From the top, cat eyes, wellingtons, and teardrops. The innovative approach of using celluloid to express shapes that would otherwise be made of metal. It is neither too exaggerated nor too simple. It blends in easily and gently adds elegance. It is a graceful piece, like a halcyon blooming in the shadow of the sun.

CLARKS ORIGINALS

Clarks Originals Wallaby Cup

That one, the usual one. That thing?

I like the feeling that it's business as usual, but I like the feeling that it is. It's a teaspoonful of ideas, or a 3.5mm arrangement, or a fingertip-sized twist on the wallaby cup. The standard wallaby upper is retained, but with a crepe sole that has been further chased down. And they have a highly elastic EVA material in them. The crepe sole, which is already fluffy and comfortable to wear, is now even fluffier than before. They look like skate shoes and have a punk-like atmosphere. But they go with my usual style. It takes care of our feet, and even our selfishness. The slight difference, as if that usual guy grew 3.5mm taller, is what makes it so good.

Shoe horns from Tamilabo

House skater.

Decks as interiors and stools made from them are quite sanctuary for me as a NOT-skater. I feel like a land surfer and can't touch it even if I wanted to. But I thought, "This is good, isn't it? I thought, "This is a good idea," and I found "Tamilabo's" shoe horns made by Koh Tamiya. Yes, the material is a skateboard deck. The original graphics on the board, the rough scratches left by skaters, and the calculated cutting of seven layers of plywood create a beautiful streamlined design where chance and necessity intertwine. Because it is designed to be ridden by people, it is also durable. This is the product that changed my mind from "I don't care what kind of shoehorn it is" to "I like this one. It's not a grandchild's hand, but it does scratch an itch.

VOIRY×pimpstick

Voile & Pimp Stick Setup

A guise without guise.

The "Voile Store" in Meguro is a devil's cave. The store is filled to the brim with original wear that you can easily wear and American sundries that will keep your eyes glued to the floor. And the reasonable prices will keep your purse strings loose. The reason why this store is a haven is more obvious than I can explain. The fabric is a light and airy cotton. The shirt-like texture makes it compact and easy to tuck away in your bag for chilly nights. The jacket has a generous body width and armholes, and the pants are tapered. The silhouette is "the one I want most right now! Buy two or three sets in bulk and wear them all summer long!

Tomato juice.

I have a habit of being influenced by others and aiming for good health. I am currently addicted to tomato juice. I buy it by mail order and drink it every morning and evening, but I'm getting a little tired of the garbage and stockroom space that gets in the way. Which should I choose, garbage or health? I am on the brink.

DAIRIKU

Dairik shirt

Peace is good.

I recently interviewed an artist. The article is not up yet, but the person told me something like he didn't know who to say ganbatte to because everyone is in trouble. Well, that is certainly true. What we should really hope for now is world peace. Of course. Then, "Dairiku" popped into my mind. Inspired by two 1969 movies, this season's collection has a hippie-like design with a "flower children" theme. In other words, the overflow is love and peace. This shirt may look a bit chic in black, but the blue floral pattern is cute, and the western shirt is a hit. Anyway, for now, let's aim to be kind and full of love.

DIGAWEL

Digawell tote bag

Name wins.

I have a longing for tote bags. When I see someone carrying a tote bag, I feel like they have a lot of room to spare, and as someone who usually uses a backpack, I feel like I am light. I feel as if my hands are occupied, but I feel as if I am free. This tote bag is from "Digawell. First of all, I like the name "Vinyl Tote. The smaller one is 7 inches and the larger one is 12 inches. In other words, this is a record-sized tote bag. The bottom of the bag has a dipped finish, giving it a somewhat pop impression. But the construction is solid. This balance of seriousness and playfulness is what makes me think "Digawell" is great. I would love to use this bag with all my stuff in it.

Si

S.I. shirt

Just the right clothes.

Every year at this time of year, I think about what to wear. It is cold in the morning and evening but hot during the day, hot in the sun but cold in the shade, and I just can't find the right clothes. As a result, many days I somehow end up wearing a shirt. The design is quite simple, with a soft and fluffy cotton linen fabric and a banded collar. The long length and generous width create a relaxed mood, and I like the spring and summer feel. The fact that it is striped instead of plain is just right for me, as I tend to choose only plain clothes. In the summer, it would be nice to wear this shirt with shorts and bee-sans.

YUWA

Yuwa's sugar beet tea

Still pollen.

Finally, cedar pollen has settled down. But rice pollen awaits next. We cannot let our guard down yet. This year, too, I relied on medicines from the early stage, but halfway through the year, I tried a sweet Chinese tea, sugar beet tea, which I have heard is good for hay fever. In the past, I have tried many things that are said to be effective for hay fever, such as vitamin D, yogurt, and lactic acid bacteria drinks. However, I failed to continue each time. I get bored. This year, by replacing my first cup of coffee in the morning with sugar beet tea, I was able to continue without difficulty. The important thing is the effect, but I honestly don't know if it actually worked. However, I recommend this "Yuwa" beet tea 100% because it tastes good anyway. I can continue with it. Please give it a try.

Binoche, find a better man...Kim Min-yi, you're too caught up with artists! I think "Binoche should find a better man... Kim Min-yi, you're too much of an artist! I always feel sorry for the heroine in their films, although it's nice to see the director's love history in their films, as if we are looking at their shameful parts. Nevertheless, I am looking forward to their latest work. I want to cover it. By the way, I think the films of Juzo Itami are the only ones in which the heroine is a good woman.

RYE TENDER

Worth knit T by Laitender

Greed's life is short, spin the remaining thread.

The desire to increase one's possessions has always been there. At restaurants, I always decide what I will eat based on the premise that I will share my companion's dish, and I will take as much as I can get for free. But now that I am writing this article for "Lighter," I suddenly feel envious when I see these people using leftover yarn to make things in an unpretentious way. This knit T-shirt is a piece that seems to symbolize that modesty. It is made of high-grade Indian super-long-staple cotton with a soft and fluffy touch that pleases the skin, and has a loose-fitting body with thicker knitting at the hem and cuffs. The body is loose with thickly knitted hems and cuffs, but not too rough, and the sleeves are slightly higher than usual, a small refinement. There is no exaggerated desire to create a revolution with this single piece, but rather, it seems to exist for the bliss of the person who will wear it.... It is as if it exists for the bliss of the person who will wear it...Things that are not greedy are mysteriously more relaxed, and that makes them look kind of cool. Let's follow in the footsteps of "Lightender! This year's theme is "not greedy.

OLD FOLK HOUSE

Old Folk House Sweatshirt

A meaty, home-run class sweatshirt introduced in a swinging mood.

There are brands that sometimes easily negotiate with people (mainly editors) who want to find a way to get rid of them. Sometimes, they do so without any real plan. In such cases, if you stroke through all the information you can find, you should be able to find something, and in the case of "Old Folk House," we are still in the middle of that process. The brand was founded by two people in 2017, and they make clothes, accessories, and teddy bears, but it was this sweatshirt in particular that got my tentacles moving. The thick, 12-ounce fabric is lined with a slightly thicker, richer silhouette that is at once modern and nostalgic. 5 studs glitter across the chest. The five studs glittering across the chest are a nice accent. I think I was attracted to this piece because of the graphic positioning, or in other words, because of the design, or because of something that transcends words, but I don't have the words at hand... The more words I use, the more I am drawn to it. The more words I put on top of each other, the more it becomes kind of bland. It's frustrating! It looks like I'm going to have a one-sided love affair for a while.

COMFORTABLE REASON

Confortable Reason Jacket

Boy, embrace the jacket.

The other day on Haraiichi radio, Mr. Iwai said that golf wear is almost always tacky. That makes sense. Then I thought about what sport has the most fashionable clothes, and I settled on tennis. The sharp sound of a racket hitting a ball echoes throughout the stadium. The old tennis wear had clean, cool lines that might have been inspired by that linear sound. And then there was "Comfortable Reason. Although the concept is not based on tennis, this season's "Comfortable" seems to have its starting point in sportswear. The two-tone jacket, bordered by a straight line running down the chest, is made of heavyweight organic cotton Katsuragi. Side pockets with zippers and inner mesh ventilation allow steam to escape from the back. Reflectors can be seen throughout, and the logo embroidered with luminescent thread on the front of the chest is a fine example of the attention to detail. When it comes to "comfort," this brand is a master of its class. By the way, did you know that Tetsuya Chiba also drew tennis manga?

New Eye" is a label derived from "UI PRODUCT" run by Yusuke Ishida, a stylist who works with plants and space design. The concept of this label, which has just recently begun to take the helm, is "craftsmanship. The concept of the label, which has recently begun to take the helm, is "craftsman." It is the functionality and design necessary for craftsmen who pursue a single thing. They will create a variety of products based on the motif of clothes equipped with these features. Among the first deliveries, this anorak was one that really caught my attention. This is a piece of clothing that Mr. Ishida himself created by transforming his own feelings and experiences in the course of his work into fashion. The length and length of the sleeves are long and loose for ease of movement. It can be worn as it is, of course, but it can also be transformed by tightening the drawcord. This creamy fabric, available in three colors, has a crisp piqué-like feel. It is made of dead stock fabric of cotton 100%. When a craftsman specializes in functionality, fashion is secondary, if not a consideration. However, we have a feeling that "New Eye" will create a new genre that no one has stepped into before, while paying respect to both of them.

Soma Takeda

Vincenzo.

Korean dramas dominated NETFLIX last year, and there was another good one this year. It is called "Vincenzo". A Korean-Italian lawyer who advises the mafia brings down a huge organization that controls wealth and interests in his home country of South Korea. The film's precise script combines suspense, comedy, and romance, and the revenge drama is spectacularly cathartic.

OVERCOAT

Overcoat shirt.

Beautiful for everyone.

Shirts are an essential part of a man's wardrobe. Recently, I've been deep into the swamp of shirts and have been buying all kinds of shirts. Next on my list is the "overcoat," which transcends the concepts of size, gender, and age. Overcoat, a unisex brand from New York, pursues designs that transcend size, gender, and age, and that anyone can wear beautifully. In keeping with this concept, the shirts introduced here are also slender and neatly finished. It is minimalistic, not masculine or feminine, and you could say that it is tasteless and odorless. However, the color of the body is a light green, which I hate. It is a shirt that knows the perfect balance between addition and subtraction, and is a shirt to be feared.

SNG's Sports and Others Sweatshirts and Pants

Chic home wear.

Recently, I have noticed that I have been wearing only sweatshirts around the house and when I go out for a short time. It all started with a pair of Champion reverse weave sweatshirts given to me by a senior member of the editorial department. It is a standard item among standard items, but it hit the spot for me. It's not at all stiff, but it's still stylish. Moreover, it can be used as casual wear inside the house, and can also be worn outside. After researching various sweatshirts, I came across a brand called "SNG's Sports and Others. The details of who makes these sweatshirts and for what purpose are not disclosed, but there are a lot of stylish items on their Instagram. And this sweatshirt has a nice logo and the words "at home wear. I feel that the fashionable thing to do in this day and age is to be as carefree as this.

BRU NA BOINNE

Bruna Boyne Accessories

Accent your summer hand.

I have never worn an accessory in my life. Bracelets of any brand would be too big for my too-thin arms, rings would get in the way, earrings would hurt, and so on. However, when I stopped by the Bruna Boin exhibition the other day, I found a bracelet that had a charm that made me think, "This is it! It had a charm that made me think, "This is it! This bracelet, named "Galitrap," which means "a circle created by fairies," is handmade by craftsmen. The delicate and intricate design of the chains and balls is the result of this work. The clasp design is made of bamboo, which is a mischievous touch, and does not give the impression of being a crude silver piece.

Brown alarm clock

Ahead of sleeping in.

Perhaps it is due to fatigue from work, but my awakening is getting worse day by day. When I was a university student, I used to naturally wake up early in the morning and watch movies from 6:00 a.m. all day long. If I overslept on a holiday, I would only feel self-loathing for having wasted my time, but if this was during an early morning shoot, I would feel terrible. I haven't made that mistake so far, but I want to take precautionary measures. That's why I have an alarm clock. An alarm clock doesn't sound very stylish, but I think this brown one would do the trick. It looks like it would do its job well as an interior design piece, even if it is placed near your bed. The standard model, which has been selected for the permanent collection of MoMA, is also hard to throw away, but this one is said to be able to charge a smartphone with a USB cable. As a modern person, I'm likely to reach for the latter.

I have been watching "Detective Conan" in movie theaters since I was in junior high school.

VIBTEX for FreshService

Capsule Collection of Bibtex for Fresh Service

Urban antivirus.

Wear a mask and disinfect your hands with alcohol. If you are aware of your "keeping distance," you are well-prepared for viruses! But what are you overlooking? The answer is, yes, viruses on your clothes. Experts say that once the virus is attached to clothes, it can survive for up to three days. Washing your clothes would solve the problem, but we don't have time to do that on weekdays..." For those who lament, "Vivtex" is the answer. As you may already know, Vivtex is a revolutionary brand that uses antiviral materials in all of its items, and since its debut last September, it has been attracting attention on the fashion scene as the leader in "wearable" antivirus products. The one we purchased this time is a special-order model by Fresh Service. The silhouette and logo have been arranged in an urban style while maintaining the original functionality. Wear it loosely and keep in mind stylish anti-virus measures.

GELATO PIQUE HOMME

Gerard Pique Homme cardigan

Boys also want to be wrapped in fluff.

The long-awaited Golden Week is here! I am sure that many of you are the same way, not being able to rejoice in spite of the long-awaited Golden Week. I am going to stay home for this year's big holiday weekend because the festival I was going to go to has been postponed and I have no plans of my own. So I bought a cardigan from Gerard Pique Homme. It is so soft to the touch that you can be sure of a good night's sleep the moment you put your sleeves on it, or rather, the moment you touch the fabric. The design does not give off too much of a loungewear feel in a good way, so you can wear it for a quick telecanning session or a walk around the neighborhood. It is understandable that girls are addicted to this item.

Sauna Thai Sea Pants

Tent saunai kitai.

Since the beginning of this year, I have been going to the sauna twice a week. For me, Wednesday night and Saturday afternoon saunas are a part of my routine, just like drinking on Fridays and running on weekends. I have visited many saunas other than my home sauna and recently experienced whisking, so just as I was thinking, "It's about time for a tent sauna...," I received an invitation from a senior member of the editorial staff. One thing to note is that unlike regular saunas, the tent sauna field is outdoors. Naturally, I would need to bring a pair of sea pants. I was looking for a pair that I could wear on a regular basis anyway, and I found a pair released by "Sauna Kitai" that was just right for me. The design is minimalistic, with an embroidered English logo. The waist is easy to adjust with an adjustable belt. It is as simple as this for both city and outdoor activities.
