Case 03: Kota Fukami I want to use it on a daily basis and make a difference with the members I work with.
PROFILE
Born in 1994. One of the members of the YouTube channel "OUR'S". After working as a buyer and store staff at the select store "SULLEN TOKYO", he became independent. Currently manages the online store "STRONG" with the members of "OUR'S": @koutafukami
I heard that you started the YouTube channel "OUR'S" to promote your restaurant when you were working at "SULLEN TOKYO".
Deep water:That's right. I thought that YouTube, with its ability to move and speak, would be a more direct way to convey the appeal of fashion than Instagram or Twitter.
What is the secret behind the channel's popularity, which already has 140,000 subscribers and is so popular that even high-end brands are calling for collaborations?
Deep water:I have the impression that other channels cover a wide range of fashion genres, but we only feature what we really like. I think our view of the world is well accepted. I myself am attracted to people with originality. I often talk with the other members about doing only what we like.
Do you like mode clothes?
Deep water:Mode is interesting because new designs keep coming out and there are clothes that I have never seen before. There are many clothes that are more decorative than functional, with designs that make you say, "Why is that happening? I see it in a good way and feel a sense of playfulness.
It seems like it would be fun to think about how to dress for such an occasion.
Deep water:It really is. Sometimes I can't sleep at night thinking about how to wear it (laughs). Wearing new clothes and dressing in new ways makes me a new person again. I feel like I can renew myself every time, and I can make friends because of fashion. So it really is a reason for me to live.
VENTURA
This watch inherits the original shield-shaped design created in 1957. The combination of the gold-colored case and the leather belt evokes a sense of maturity and sexiness.¥125,400
I feel that the design of "Ventura" also has a certain mode atmosphere.
Deep water:It's cool. The shape is totally different from ordinary watches, and it goes well with the mode clothes I like. It also has a mature look, which is why I chose to wear it with a leather jacket today.
Do you feel different when you wear it?
Deep water:I feel like an adult. I am already in my late 20s, so I would like to be able to wear a watch like this without hesitation. The other members don't wear watches that often, so it would be great to be asked, "What's that? It would be great to be asked, "What's that? I would like to be able to stand out from the other members in this way.
