FISHING MEETS FASHION

Fishing fashion for fun in nature and in the city.

Outdoor activities are enjoying an unprecedented surge in popularity in the wake of the Corona disaster. Fishing is definitely at the top of the list. There are various types of fishing, including active fishing out to sea on a boat with a group of friends, and fishing on a lake or river where you can face yourself. The main attraction of this activity is that it can be enjoyed according to the tastes and interests of those who enjoy it. Fishing fashion has become a vibrant trend in this era. The vest has been the first to catch fire, and now fashionable items are being introduced one after another. Here, we thoroughly introduce hip brands that are indispensable for incorporating such elements of fishing into street clothes. (This article is reprinted from "Huinum Unplugged Vol. 12" magazine.)

METROPOLIS FISHING

An "urban" brand by two skaters.

The brand was started by KOZAKANA and TAKANE, two skaters who happened to be at the same time at a fishing tackle shop and hit it off. The name "Metropolis Fishing" came from the fact that they mainly attack fishing spots in Tokyo. The brand is very simple, just like skaters, producing T-shirts, sweatshirts, fleece, and small items used for fishing. The colors are mainly basic, as fish in the water are wary of flashy colors. In addition to selling goods, they will also be holding music and fishing events in the future, so be sure to keep an eye out for them.

Thick, solid fabric sweatshirts are two of their favorite items. Sweatshirt ¥7,700 (Metropolis Fishing)

The fish grip is designed for ease of use, and the brand name is engraved rather than printed. Fish Grip ¥5,500 (Metropolis Fishing)

The lighter uses the phrase "prayer for bombastic fishing," with the hope that it will be carried around like a good luck charm. Lighters ¥330 each (Metropolis Fishing)
