. I want to ride like a long-time partner , like a long-time partner.
While we were talking about this, "Lutetia" arrived at its next destination. This is "Brass shoe co." where Mr. Ozaki often has his shoes repaired. On this day, we came to pick up the repaired leather shoes that had been submitted for repair.



I had heard the name for a long time, but I had never visited the store . When I came to Setagaya Daita, I thought there was a cool store there, and it turned out to be the one I had heard about. I brought my engineer boots to the shop, and not only did they repair them, but they also made a suggestion: "Why don't you do something like this? I was very comfortable with that. That made me feel very comfortable, so I buy old shoes and come here to have them renewed.


Mr. Ozaki always talks about "love and taste. He continues, "This store is also a place that values these elements.
He said, "They are very skilled, and you can see their sense of style in the décor and the shoes and parts they have on display. . I think it's because the staff is full of charm. The inquisitiveness and love for boots and leather shoes is tremendous. And I always appreciate the care with which they convey that to me."

He receives three pairs of shoes that had been sent in for repair, and tries on a pair of boots that are originally made by the store. Mr. Ozaki immediately buys them again and leaves the store. This completes his schedule for the day.
Mr. Ozaki, who throughout the day showed us his various obsessions and love for things, was the last person we asked what he would like to do in the future with his "Lutecia.

. I would like to ride a Lutecia for daily transportation, like today. Like a bicycle, the Lutecia is easy to get on and off in a short time, even in the immediate vicinity. It is very convenient for moving from place to place. And a compact car feels like a companion. I like that. When I drive, I can feel the ground, I feel like I'm driving with the car, and I can easily drive through narrow streets. So I want to drive it like a long-lasting partner.
