Tanning desire.
I know it's not good for my skin, I know that, but I definitely want to be tanned in the summer. I am embarrassed to have white skin. I wonder if this is a prehistoric way of thinking.
Koti Beauty&YOUTH
Coty Beauty & Youth Umbrella
Umbrellas have come so far.
Youtube hereI also introduced this problematic work in the "The Piano" series. I was curious about it from the first time I saw it, but after much hesitation, I finally decided to purchase it because of its reasonable price. The deciding factor was its appearance. That was the only reason. It looks like a light saber, isn't it cool? （It is made of Dyneema, a very strong and lightweight fabric that is often used for tents, backpacks, and sacks, and is familiar to outdoor enthusiasts. The horizontal thinking of putting it in an umbrella is the best, isn't it? I don't necessarily wish the middle bar was a little longer, but I'm happy enough with it. I don't take it with me when I drink, that's for sure.

sacai
Sleeveless blouson by Sakai
Completely love at first sight.
Hybrid = A product created by combining and crossing different kinds of things. The pioneer of hybrids in fashion is SAKAI. Many brands are now making clothes that incorporate this technique, but I think that SAKAI has the edge. What I like about "SAKAI" is that it is just a little bit hybrid. I like a little "make-up," like a shirt with a little bit of shirring at the hem, or this sleeveless blouson that combines a military base with an elegant boa. For me, who usually wears only basic clothes, "SAKAI" satisfies this kind of "extravagant" element. I don't buy something every season, but it is one of the brands that I buy from time to time.

STANDARD SUPPLY
Standard Supply Daypacks
You will understand its greatness when you carry it on your back.
It must be very difficult to make slight improvements to something that has almost a fixed shape. Daypacks have generally had this form and look since their birth, but this one from Standard Supply has been meticulously designed in every detail. The position and size of the pockets show signs of having been thought out, but they are not ostentatious, but rather understated. It is a standard product that suits any person and any style. We picked up the olive color, which is a limited edition for this fall/winter season, because it is wonderful. The fact that all the leather parts, tapes, and other accessories are also olive is wonderful, isn't it?

CITIZEN x hobo
Citizen x Hobo watches
The color of the nylon belt is great.
To be honest, I'm not particularly particular about watches, and the ones I've owned have been extremely basic models. I think I have a narrow range of tastes, but this one seemed to me to be somewhat nice. I tried to figure out the reason for this, and it seems to be due to the domesticity of the word "CITIZEN" and the Japanese day-of-week display. In other words, it makes me feel relieved. There are many masterpieces in this kind of military watches, but all of them are imported. I don't think I need to speak about the sincerity and sincerity of Japanese watchmakers, but if a brand that understands our feelings, like Hobo, takes that base and arranges it a little bit, they can create something very good. I think this is a good example.

NIKE TRAIL
Nike Trail rain jacket
The long-awaited "Nike Trail" name.
The trail running scene is somehow led by outdoor manufacturers. Meanwhile, sports manufacturers are slowly but surely expanding their product lineups. In addition to shoes, apparel, sacks, and other gear, they are steadily strengthening their presence by signing contracts with top athletes. Nike has introduced a rain jacket for trail running. The jacket is made of environmentally friendly recycled polyester and features GORE-TEX® Infineum, which boasts excellent water and wind resistance while allowing freedom of design. Seam tapes throughout the interior prevent water ingress, and ventilation is added at the back. The ventilation system on the back of the garment keeps the inside of the garment comfortable while protecting it from the wind and rain. It is also attractive because it can be compactly carried by storing it in the pocket located inside. Although not completely waterproof, this is the long-awaited rain jacket with the "Nike Trail" name. It will tickle your appetite.

ASICS Sandals
Sandals that are ahead of their time.
After running, I usually change into sandals. It's just easier. Sometimes I wear flip-flops, and other times I choose recovery sandals to treat my feet. I use them according to the intensity of the race, how tired I am, or how I feel at the time. One of the latest additions to my sandal collection is the "ACTIBREEZE 3D SANDAL" by ASICS. Developed as an after-performance sandal, this product combines a parametric design that designs a complex three-dimensional structure with advanced 3D printing technology to create a three-dimensional, thick lattice structure. This provides excellent breathability and softness, while adjusting the hardness in different areas and designing the soles with a wider width to provide a comfortable fit that is gentle on the feet and rich in stability. Moreover, once this design and manufacturing method is established, the company is also considering personalizing the shoes! A fascinating product that is ahead of its time. No wonder it sold out immediately.

COLUMBIA
Columbia Pants
Super comfortable romping.
When I think of summer, I think of shorts. Not just summer, but spring, fall, and even winter when I run in the mountains. Even though I am such a shorts lover, I sometimes wear long pants. However, in such hot weather, denim shorts are out of the question. If I am going to go to the trouble of wearing them, I prefer to wear something comfortable and made of a functional material. Columbia's easy pants, the "Road to Mountain Camp Lovers Pants," are an excellent product that fulfills all of my selfish desires. They use Columbia's proprietary Omni-Freeze Zero cooling technology, which instantly lowers the temperature of the entire fabric when you sweat. These high-tech pants are truly designed to keep you comfortable during the hot summer months. The silhouette is loose-fitting and the ankle-length is stylish. Moreover, the pants are pocketable and come with a hanking loop, providing all the features required in the outdoor scene. This summer, I will be spending my time in comfort wearing these long pants.

HOKA
Hoka Sandals
Personally, I am a tong type.
This season, Hoka has added a size-adjustable strap type to its lineup, and has established a solid status in the recovery sandal genre. Of these, I am personally interested in the standard tongue type "Ora Recovery Flip," which is not a new model. The soft, ultra-thick midsole, which is unique to Hoka, is combined with a Meta Rocker structure that enables smooth foot movement, and the two-layer construction with the outsole provides high durability and comfort with a sense of stability. The outsole and outsole are double-layered to provide high durability and stability and comfort. Comfortable to wear and colorful to look at. These thong sandals match every scene and style. I think I could buy a pair for adults.

I was completely elevated by two consecutive shots of Dinosaur Jr. and Cornelius. I am so full. Oh, my God, I was so happy to see and hear them. Especially "If you are there" from "STAR FRUIT SURF RIDER" made me so giggle that I almost cried. Definitely the biggest emotional moment of the summer!
NEEDLES.
Needles zipper track pants
I'm a Jacquard guy these days.
We have been introducing Needles' track pants here at ShoppingAddict every time the season starts up. This season, I picked up the two polyester jacquard ones you see here. My personal impression is that the green dot pattern has a somewhat mid-century feel to it, and I would like to match it with colorful and psychedelic looks. The black one, on the other hand, has a Fifties feel to it, so I would wear it with an open-collared shirt and a fringed jacket for a slightly delinquent look. I was torn between the straight length and the sporty zipper type, but I decided to go for it. I thought the mismatch with the retro pattern was interesting. However, Needles' pattern selection in this area is always superb, isn't it? As a lover of vintage clothing and the culture surrounding it, it hits all the right notes for me. Of course I like the plain trackla pants, and I buy more every season, but for the past few seasons, I've definitely gone for polyester jacquard.

KEEN
Keen's Wasatch Crest Waterproof
Only by getting dirty!
Fishing, festivals, camping. ...... When I am out and about, I find myself wearing "Keen" shoes. There are other options when it comes to functionality, but I always choose Keen because I don't mind getting them dirty, and more importantly, they look great when they get dirty with dirt and sand. I can step into even the worst terrain without hesitation, and I want to wear them all the time. There is no other shoe that is so reliable and fun for outdoor play than Keen's. The photo shows the long-awaited waterproof model of the Wasatch Crest. The asymmetrical design of the laces matches the shape of the foot, and the stylish one-tone color scheme is a hit. The sole is slightly thicker and has excellent cushioning for perfect comfort. It's a pair that looks and functions with great satisfaction. So, these are the shoes you will be wearing this fall/winter!

DAIWA PIER39
Daiwa Pier 39 fishing pants
One-shot KO fishing bread.
Daiwa Pier 39 is known for its use of pockets, but we never expected to see so many pockets in pants. From large gusseted pockets that can easily fit a lure box to small pockets with flaps for convenience, the pockets come in a variety of sizes and shapes. The pocket work may seem excessive, but the reason why it is so easily accepted is because Daiwa, a fishing tackle manufacturer, is behind it. The details, each with its own purpose, are sublimated into a powerful product in combination with the brand's history and persuasive power. This is exactly the kind of item that could only have been made possible by Daiwa Pier 39. These pants have a sense of authenticity that cannot be imitated overnight. Incidentally, the fabric is chinocloth made of thick taslan nylon threads woven together densely, so it is both lightweight and durable. These pants will definitely be useful in the outdoor field. Well, I have written a lot of things, but I just simply got a KO with the strong appearance of these pants.

Dripping with earth colors such as browns and greens, the works have depth and evoke a majestic landscape. The abstract paintwork has blurred outlines, so it would be better to coordinate it as if you were wearing snow camouflage. In any case, just by putting on these sleeves, you can literally feel nature on your skin and blend in with it. This is the quintessence of manufacturing by "South 2 West 8," which is based in Hokkaido, a place rich in fishing and nature.

HERMÈS
Hermes Perfumes
Scent of the 75th year.
Among the many masterpieces of Hermès, perfume is one of its most popular and hidden products. The history of Hermès perfume is surprisingly old, and the perfume department was established in 1947. At that time, "Eau de Hermès" was released for both men and women, followed by a women's version in 1961 and a men's version in 1970, and the number of variations gradually increased. Incidentally, it is surprising that the first "Eau de Hermes" can still be purchased today. The attitude of preserving and cherishing tradition can be said to be one of the reasons why many people support the Maison both now and in the past. The newest addition to the "Terre de Hermès" line of men's perfumes, which was created in 2006, is "Terre de Hermès Eau Givrée," which was released in June of this year. The bottle design looks simple at first glance, but the letter "H" is shaped at the bottom. This kind of workmanship is another point that makes us fall in love with "Hermes".

agnès b. hat
Just a whiff of it is just right.
In May of this year, I went to an exhibition of "agnes b." for its fall/winter 2022 collection. The venue was a new office in Meguro, Tokyo. It was an open space with no walls or partitions, using one floor of the building, with a work space for making clothes called "atelier" in the center, surrounded by free space, a cafe counter, and work desks. The seating was free-address. I was deeply impressed by this new normal. After visiting the office, I found this hat at the exhibition. As you can see, it is a felt hat with some kind of embroidery on the side. If you look closely, you can see the word "imagine" embroidered on it. Agnès b. is famous for its deep connection with subcultures, and I thought it was stylish to show this rather than directly expressing it. I felt that I would like to be able to wear such a hat without hesitation.

This time, we picked up an all-black leather jacket specially ordered from "Issue Things. Actually, this jacket is a modified version of a special order released last year, with the lining changed from raw silk to black high-density cotton. It is made with a generous amount of American steer leather and is finished in a relaxed size that looks like it would be worn by a tall foreigner. When we talked to Mr. Danjo, he said, "I like the oversized leather jacket worn by Denzel Washington in the movie 'Training Day,' and I wanted to express that feeling, so I asked him to produce this jacket. It's true that you can't find leather jackets like this in thrift stores. It is expensive, but it is worth trying on the sleeves.

It's been a while.
August 7 was the first day of autumn. According to the calendar, we are said to be moving toward autumn from this day, but there is no sign of it yet, and a parade of midsummer days and extremely hot days are on the horizon. The masks made me feel even hotter. In such a situation, I rely on T-shirts and shorts every day, but it is time for me to change my mood with different clothes. Jeans are the perfect choice for the new season. It's been a while since I've worn jeans, so I thought it was time to take a fresh look. So I turned to Calvin Klein, a pioneer in designer jeans. These new jeans are made of soft organic cotton and have a silhouette that is neither too thin nor too thick. The color, "Jaguar Black," is also impressive and will be suitable for a wide range of casual styles. I can't wait for the weather to cool down.

That man's graphics in a way I never thought possible.
Koenji, where I lived until three years ago. I have many memories of unique stores in the neighborhood, such as going to "Kidofuji" or "Diz" where I happened to know someone there and we would have drinks together, or sweating it out at "Kosugi Yu" late at night after work. KIOSCO is a store run by Goto-kun, who also runs Roach, and his attention to detail makes for a very comfortable store. The T-shirt I got the last time I visited was based on a sampling from the movie "Big Lebowski," which Goto-kun adores like crazy, with the brand's iconic DUDE on the roach, and was modified by graffiti writer QP. The brand name is on the left chest in QP's special font, and the back print is a sequence of the DUDE being dismantled and constructed. The color was black with a white print, but we chose the white and red. I would like to wear this T-shirt on my days off and wander around Koenji.

Rokuyu T-shirt
Keep your back straight, but also relax a little.
It was in 2020 that rapper B.D., who had been based in Tokyo, moved his base to Nasushiobara City and opened a restaurant called Rokuyuyu. I had always wanted to go there, but with the Corona disaster making it difficult to visit, I took the Tohoku Expressway by car to go there last month at a time when the number of infected people had decreased. I had an image of Nasu Shiobara as a city of forests and hot springs, but the town side where "Rokuyuyu" is located has famous cafes and gyoza (dumpling) restaurants, and the town seems to have its own color. When I climbed the stairs and stepped into "Rokuyu", records, cassette tapes, boom boxes, and used books were neatly arranged in the spacious store, and I could strongly feel B.D.'s personality and passion for music from his appearance, and I was also interested in the live concerts held at the store on an irregular basis. The T-shirts I purchased along with the CDs and cassette tapes I was interested in are something that makes me stand up straight when I put them on, and the once-washed body is very comfortable to wear. I would like to wear it loosely with a beer in my hand while listening to a mix CD of Brazilian music that B.D. gave me.

For me, a T-shirt is 80% communication tool and the remaining 20% fabric, so I don't care about the shape or functionality at all.

The back print features the band's name and logo with the word "KOS" added by H8GRAPHiX. The number 52 on the hat represents the E and B of the band's name in alphabetical order. The ETERNAL B T-shirt also features the band's name and the song title "BREAKE DOWN THE WALL" on the front, designed by graffiti writer EQ2. Favourite.

Recently, I got hooked on "The Bachelorette". The theme of "SAKEFLIGHT" is also about travel. In the former, you narrow down your search for true love or your destiny from 15 people through a journey, but in the latter, you choose your favorite flavor from an initial diagnostic kit and register, and from the following month onward, a sake of your choice is delivered to your door. The diagnosis consists of five different types of sake, each with a different direction, so it is simply fun to compare them and they are all delicious. In addition, from the following month onward, you will also receive a set of sake pairings with snacks and reading materials about the local area, making you feel as if you were on a trip to each region. I loved the fact that I could not only drink sake, but also get this experience and tips, which is exquisite. The result of my diagnosis was that I am a gorgeous and less peculiar type of person. It was a clear guess, and I have a high level of trust in it.

Bedside companion.
We moved at the end of last month. We have been moving things from our previous home and are wondering if it is time to replace them with new speakers. The ones I use the most are from Geneva, which was established in Switzerland in 2005. I had an image of two speakers, one on each side, but the sound spread is excellent, and they sound quite good no matter where you are in the room. And the design is always good. I noticed that Geneva has introduced two new products. One of them, "Geneva Time," is small and easy to use. The analog look with an alarm clock blends well with interior design, and it looks very cute when placed in a room. It can be placed on a sideboard or something, but since it can also be used to wirelessly charge a smartphone, we recommend it as a bedside companion.

Hario Tea Dripper
This is the era of dripping tea.
I drink water or coffee on a daily basis at home, but sometimes I want to drink tea. However, I had an image that cleaning up tea leaves was a hassle, so I could not get my hands on one. Hario's "Tea Dripper Bouquet" solved that problem. I highly recommend this dripper, which allows you to make paper drips just like you do with coffee. The best part is that it is easy to clean up. Just throw away the paper and wash the dripper. There are no tea leaves stuck to the dripper, so it's quick and easy to clean up. Moreover, the paper is the 02 size of V60, so you can use the conical paper as it is. The extraction speed is also adjustable, so you can make sencha, hojicha, or black tea. Personally, I think it is a good idea to put in more tea leaves in the first brewing to open up the tea leaves. We had an in-house cheesecake and tea party and it looked and tasted quite popular. I could also see it going into a carafe with a server set, which is also good.

Nothing Smart Phone
Finally launched!
Have you heard of a company called "Nothing?" If you have quick ears, you may have already heard of this startup based in London, England. Teenage Engineering's "Nothing Ear (1)" earphones were the talk of the town, and now the company has finally released its first smartphone, "Nothing Phone (1). Putting functions aside for the moment, the clear body, just like the earphones, is very cool. I really like the back design with 900 LEDs on the back of the phone, which gives it a new and nostalgic feel. Frankly speaking, I don't think a bad smartphone can be created in this age of accumulated know-how. If there is no replacement, you can choose one based on the design you like. I thought of this when I got the earphones as well, and I hope that this will be the starting point for something even more interesting!
