Authentic and elegant. The military jacket of choice for adults now.

　: . I chose this BDU shirt jacket because of its lightweight feel. . In addition to being comfortable to wear, it has a very smart impression despite its authentic look because of its wing-tailored design. We have tried to create an adult military style with a relaxed feel by wearing it with shorts made of the same material. To accentuate the material, a simple white shirt is worn as an inner layer, and a beret is added as an accent to give it a moderately trendy look.

2. an urban backpack that looks and functions like the star of your outfit.

: The netted sub-panel, cow suede bottom, ventilation on the straps, and other design and functionality are arranged in an organic manner, and it is attractive that it looks so good when carried on the back. The styling of this bag is based on the image of "a higher-ranked adult's holiday outfit" with such a backpack as the main feature. A clean beige stainless-steel collar coat is paired with a casual item selection of a striped T-shirt and sweatpants. The overall silhouette is slim so that the backpack's functionality can be asserted in a moderate way, while giving a sense of natural elegance.

The supple and lightweight material is also waterproof. 3. A nylon jacket with outstanding functionality that lets you play with the silhouette.

: . It looks like a simple nylon jacket, but it is supple to the touch and lightweight. Moreover, it is water-repellent, moisture-permeable, and pocketable for compact storage. In any case, this jacket is an item that is very useful if you have one. It goes well with plain denim, but I chose to wear it with slacks. By making the silhouette of the bottoms thicker, the tight silhouette of the jacket comes to life.

4. evolutionary sweatshirt parka with functionality as design.

: The royal style of jeans and a sweatshirt parka is differentiated by making changes here and there . . Jeans are slacks, innerwear is tucked in, and accessories such as belts and sunglasses are also important. Among these, the sweatshirt parka from Citera® , with its seamless sleeves, original cord on the hood, and back pocket with key hook, is a design that actually stands up when worn. I guess you could say that this is the perfect sweatshirt parka to choose right now."
