Excite City Council.

Have you ever heard of Aki Takata City? It is a small city in Hiroshima, where a 37-year-old former banker was elected mayor two years ago, and well, the mayor is a genius and interesting. I am ashamed to say that I am learning for the first time that this is how local politics is conducted. Once again, I learned the magnitude of the vote I have.

AURALEE

Auralee's Blouson

. between strong and flexible.

I fell in love with this blouson at first sight at an Auralee exhibition. I found it on the women's rack. It has a workmanlike look like a duck jacket , but it has a minimalistic and elegant appearance. Why is that? Is it the color? The texture? The silhouette? The small gold snap buttons? Probably none of those . Not only does it look great, but there are many things that will surprise you through the sleeves. . I'm told that it's a high-density woven canvas, but it's very supple. After the fabric is stiffened once in the process, it is beaten and firmed many times to give it a soft texture. In addition to this, the liner is made of super 120 wool and cashmere blend yarn and has a brushed finish, so it softly and fluffy wraps around the body. Despite its wild exterior, the inside is moist and gentle. This is a piece of clothing that can be worn as hard or soft as you like, as expected from Auralee.

adidas Originals

adidas Originals Polo Shirts

The formal attire is also rough and sporty.

I bought this vintage "adidas" ATP jacket in the spring. I was reminded of the appeal of "adidas" as a brand that strikes a balance between sports and fashion. Since then, I have been obsessed with the three stripes. However, I can't handle game shirts or referee shirts, and T-shirts seem too young for me, so I hesitate to wear them. . I feel comfortable wearing a collared shirt because it's hardcore. It feels like a good old-fashioned English club team without being too sporty. And the combination of navy and yellow also adds a fashionable touch. Rather than wearing it seriously, I would prefer to wear it with the buttons fully open and the arms rolled up for a rough look. . It's also nice that it's not a collaboration, but an in-line line.

ROCKPORT

Rockport Shoes

TPO non-negotiable.

Rockport, a leather shoe brand from Boston, U.S.A., was founded in 1971. The company was founded in 1971. It has been in business for half a century. The brand's achievement is the docking of the upper of a business shoe and the outsole of a sneaker. Rockport" can be said to be the origin of the modern trend. I don't wear suits , and I travel a lot. . They are the perfect pair for me who wants to wear slacks smartly once in a while. . The design is chunky and rugged, but they are lightweight, flexible, and have excellent cushioning. The grainy full-grain leather is not only expressive, but also durable. These are the shoes to choose when you are tired of sneakers. And the fact that they don't look cool is one of the reasons why you can wear them with ease.

Antwort

Antwort Bags

Bag A.

The designer is anonymous, and it is uncertain whether the brand is Japanese or not. That is "Antwort. . Moreover, releases are irregular and sell out as soon as they go on sale. This bag is made of wool gabardine on the outside and micro fleece on the inside, since the fabric is from an anorak jacket that was developed at "JOHN" in Yoyogi Uehara. Although the micro fleece is not necessary for the bag to retain heat, its plump thickness helps to give the bag a three-dimensional silhouette. The shape is quite useful, as by tying the handles like an azuma bag, the length can be freely changed, such as diagonally across the body or like a handbag. With an anonymous brand like this, the logo often comes out the front, but "Antwort" has a perfect distance between the two. . That's one of the reasons why I follow the release information on Instagram.

I would like to ask.

The summer Koshien (the National High School Baseball Championships) has come to a close. I used to be a high school baseball player, and I tend to get excited when I see the ball players fighting desperately under the scorching sun, as if I were myself back then. Although I was not blessed with a great physique, I was confident in my ability to defend the ball with my quick feet and strength on the edge of the ball. I would like to ask a question to my teammates at that time. "Was I in the right position as a catcher?

Samuel Zelig

Samuel Zelig's pants

Golden Age .

I have always been a boy who was never interested in "simple" things, but was always attracted to things that were messy and colorful. Even as I grew older, that didn't change, and when I went to stores, the first thing that caught my eye were items with a lot of color. The first thing that caught my attention was these pants by Samuel Zelig. As you can see, the pants are lively, but what is noteworthy is the meticulousness of the work. The designer's strong will not to let up on any detail can be felt in the embroidered illustrations of various sizes in different tastes. At my age, I am still attracted to this type of item, perhaps because I have a foundation of taste built up between the ages of 9 and 12. , Was there a golden age for fashion sense as well?

HOMELESS TAILOR

Homeless Taylor Shoes

The feeling of finally meeting .

I tend to dress loose, but sometimes I wear leather shoes. However, I think plain-toes and U-tips look cool when I look at them, but when I try them on myself, I feel that they are not appropriate for me... I tend to avoid them. However, when I tried to wear them, I found them to be somewhat clunky or ill-suited... I tended to shy away from them. I finally found the best leather shoes that fit my taste perfectly. The design source is a pair of "homeless stealers," which are cast covers for broken bones. . Although they are leather shoes, they have one strap with Velcro, which I didn't expect. . The leather sole cuts through the center of the shoe, and the toe is square. All of these features overturned the conventional wisdom of leather shoes in my mind.

Norwegian Rain

Norwegian Rain Raincho

. rain or no rain.

Is it just me who tends to lose the quality of fashion on rainy days? No, that's not true, is it? Don't we tend to think about things like "it doesn't matter if it gets wet," "it dries easily," and "the length is short..." and end up neglecting our fashion sense? The name of this "Norwegian Rain" raincoat literally comes from "raincoat + poncho," but despite such a straightforward item name, the attention to detail is not half bad. The pattern is not a simple camouflage pattern, but has a watercolor touch in some places, cashmere fabric is placed around the collar where it touches the chin, and the silhouette can be freely changed with the waist belt and back strap. It is a piece of clothing that will definitely be useful not only in the rain, but also as an outerwear for everyday use.

A.P.C. x Steven Alan

Arpesey x Steven Alan Denim

Denim Breeder.

In both Pokemon and Dracula, I liked patiently raising monsters from eggs, rather than raising monsters caught in the wild. What I want to say is that I like rigid denim (laughs). (Laughs.) It is also called "raw denim," and in my opinion, it is the golden egg of denim that is lined up in stores in its "raw" state, without any processing, including washing. This season, Steven Alan chose A.P.C., whose specialty is such rigid denim, as a special order partner. The denim, made to the original size specifications, is characterized by a large waist and wide tapered silhouette, while maintaining the sex appeal and elegance of " A.P.C. ". . I would like to think carefully about what kind of aspect I would like to grow it into.

White Mountaineering

White Mountaineering Scarf

Bandanas and scarves, we have started .

I was attracted to a showcase of bandanas at a thrift store, and that was the last time I bought one. The more I dig, the wider, taller, and deeper the bandana becomes, and I can't even grasp the outline of the world of bandanas. . I am still searching for the one ear, the elephant's nose, and so on. As my interest in fabrics, not limited to bandanas, grows, I would like to introduce a large scarf from "White Mountaineering. The original pattern of plants and berries is meticulously drawn, and the fabric is sweetly woven, so it is soft and makes you want to rub your cheek against it. The scarf is both powerful when open and casually accented when closed. There are not so many bandanas that allow you to go back and forth between the city and nature with ease.

DIGAWEL

Digawell Turtleneck Sweatshirt

. several copies per family, you know .

The reverse weave® sweatshirt, which has been used in the 22AW and 23SS, is not too soft and not too thin. The silhouette when you put it on is beautiful because it is designed with a wide body width, and the neck looks ordinary at a glance, but it has a nice, unassuming appearance. It is strong enough to be worn alone, but can also play a supporting role to complement other items.

Pacifica Collectives

Pacifica Collectives rugs

Hip and hip rugs.

Honestly, isn't that at the back of your bucket list? To obsess over chair rugs. It becomes a concern around the time you start looking and arranging your belongings and obsessing over your furniture. I think it is such a standing item. However, if you think about it, a chair is something you sit on every day, and as someone who works at a desk, it is in constant contact with your body. So, I wanted to use a good quality chair, and the end result of my personal imagination was "Pacifica Collectives. They commissioned Keita Miyairi, a dyeing artist, to create the design, and the iconic shape will surely fit any chair. The relaxing temperature will soothe me every time I sit down......................................my bucket list is moving up.

Cole's track pants

No headline .

A friend of mine took me to an exhibition at " Cole ". Rather than clothes that would make a headline full of boldface type, they were clothes that would make you grin when you actually held them in your hands. Rather than clothes that will make everyone nod their heads in approval, they are clothes that will make those who are attracted to them smile. These fleece pants are no different, with the arc-shaped white piping running stylishly through them , drawing the eye to the hem at the end of them. The navy waffle fabric is too cool to be called "casual wear. To be honest, there are a lot of fleece pants out there, but I like Cole's take on them rather than being bold and unselfish.

O.L.I. .

I saw Kendrick Lamar at Summer Sonic. . It's been about two weeks since then, but I still can't shake the lingering feeling. Especially during the anthem "Alright," there was a chorus so loud that I couldn't believe I was in Japan, and there was a moment when he looked like a god, no joke. It was like people worshipping the "Kendrick" religion. I wonder if I will be able to witness more live performances like this in the future. I am a little worried.

IM MEN

I.M. Men's Shirts

Architectural shirt .

This shirt has a hidden gimmick: it has fold lines in various places, and when folded according to the guide, it forms a beautiful square like a handkerchief. The brand is I.M. Men. I have introduced this brand several times in the past, but I am always struck by such science-oriented ideas. . Not only do they have interesting gimmicks, but their approach to design is also fresh. In the case of this shirt, it incorporates a traditional Kyoto dyeing technique called itajime-shibori, in which a folded line triggers a change in pattern. Each piece is said to have a different color and pattern, and the tactile feel is also a delight. Would you say it is a fusion of theory and sensibility? Looking at these clothes, I thought they looked like architecture.

Altered T-shirts

A new interpretation of football fashion.

Shunsaku is a stylist who has always been a great help to me. He is of the same generation, which is rare in this industry, and is a reliable presence when we work together. We also share a common interest in soccer, and we sometimes have a lot of soccer talk during shoots. Shunsaku has been involved in the styling and design of "Altered" since the 23SS. I heard that a new essence had been added to the existing "Altered" brand, so I took a peek at the website and found many items with a sporty and city feel, and I could feel Shunsaku's sense of style here and there. I especially liked the nylon T-shirts. It was like a short-sleeved version of the soccer jerseys I used to wear when I was a child, but I was attracted by the fact that the soccer theme was not pushed to the forefront. The color choice of yellow with navy at the neck is also good. It's a loose fit, so you can wear it with a white long T in the fall, and you'll have a nice, casual look.

BLINK

blink pants

. near life.

When buying clothes, I personally value who makes them as much as the quality of the product itself. I believe that attitude and personality can be expressed in what is made, and if it is made by someone I respect, I can trust it. Brink's, the brand introduced here, is just such a brand. Mr. Ishibata, owner of "In part" in Higashi-Ueno, handles the brand. In addition to the wonderful selection, the prices are reasonable because he wants his customers to have easy access to good clothes. Mr. Ishibata's customer service, which is not intrusive, is also very pleasant, and when I visit him, my purse strings tend to be loosened. The pants are made of supplex nylon, which has long been a standard material used by outdoor brands, and are lightweight, quick-drying, and wrinkle-resistant. Moreover, they feel like cotton and do not rustle when you walk around. These pants are simple, but they will gently accompany you in your daily life, and are a pair that shows off Mr. Ishibata's personality.

MERRELL 1TRL

Merrell One TRL Moc Shoes

A footstep of excursion.

When I go to festivals or travel, I usually have two pairs of shoes. However, I always travel with a backpack and have to put one in it. . This was stressful because it took up a lot of space and made it uncomfortable to carry on my back. The "HUT MOC 2 PACKABLE" from Merrell One TRL is the solution to this problem. It is an ultra-lightweight comfort shoe, but what is notable is that you can put both feet together with a zipper. The heel has a carabiner, which can be hung on a bag for easy carrying. The zipper around the upper also adds to the design. They are easy to handle, comfortable to walk in, and will become an indispensable pair of shoes for long trips.

A thrill and a sense of accomplishment .

I thought to myself, "I haven't been to the mountains lately," and went to Mt. As soon as I got out of the car, I could feel the cool, cool weather and the clear, dignified air, which made me realize how nice it is to be outdoors in the summer. The highlight of the climb was the dynamic rock formation that appeared near the summit. While I felt a sense of fear if I fell off the rock, I couldn't help but feel a sense of adventure. It is possible to climb the mountain in a day trip, so please do not miss it!

Onitsuka Tiger

Onitsuka Tiger sneakers

MEXICO on the offensive.

This past June, we visited the "Onitsuka Tiger" exhibition. The stylish apparel was as good as the collection brands, and the footwear emphasized design. Seeing the full lineup in one place, my image of the brand was updated. It is not a sports brand, but a fashion brand. One of the items that caught my attention was the "MEXICO 66 SD," which is scheduled to be released in November this year. As you can see, this one is based on the "MEXICO" and features the Onitsuka Tiger stripe with cut-out cushioning material. The color is a chic gray, and the design is classic yet edgy. I like simple styles, so when it comes to incorporating playfulness, this is just the right amount of salt.

It's cool without being cool. For me, "Magic Stick" is such a brand. Their clothes, based on a variety of backbones including music, pursuing materials and functions, have a comfortable fit and designs that are different from the trends. The anorak picked up this time was inspired by the tracksuits worn by dancers and artists in the late 1990s. The bold, oversized silhouette fits the modern look, and the solid navy color can be worn with a variety of bottoms, regardless of style. The reflector print on the chest and sleeves and the packable design make it compact and easy to carry. It is a piece of clothing that you will want to wear in the city as well as outdoors.

Crocs Footwear

Long-awaited new model.

Last year,special feature articleI have been wearing the "MELLOW" shoes by Crocs for almost a year since I uploaded my first pair of "MELLOW" shoes on my website , "Crocs". Following the slide type released at the time of its debut, a new toe-covering type has been released and I tried them out right away. In terms of design, the matte texture of the "MELLOW" series has been retained, while the new clog type has broadened the range of wearability. I think they can be worn in all seasons with socks. They are not too hard and not too soft, yet they still have a comfortable feel as if they are absorbing into the soles of your feet, making them perfect for wearing after a run or to and from the sauna. This is a pair that will keep your feet relaxed all day long.

Hobo shoulder bag

Hidden Tech.

Cell phone, wallet, earphones, charger ... I want to carry a few more things, but I don't need as much space as a backpack. The "Hobo" shoulder bag is perfect for such a situation. It is not large, but it has a pocket inside for a PC or a tapette and a drink holder, making it a great storage solution. The bag is made of canvas, which is a plain weave of stranded cotton and is used as waterproof fabric for tents and trucks, so it is both durable and breathable. . And because it has been washed, it has a familiar texture that makes you feel at ease, as if you had it for a long time even though it is brand-new. . The design is casual and understated, but when you hold it, it has elegance and presence. In addition to green, natural and navy colors are also available, so please check them out!

. it's a summery.

Everyday I frown at the strong sunlight, so I pick up a pair of sunglasses. Then I found a pair of "ADSR" sunglasses. I was completely attracted to its exquisite shape, somewhere between a cat-eye and a round shape. Despite its tricky shape, it gives a surprisingly mild impression on the face when worn. The color of the lenses is not too dark, so I can wear them indoors as if they were eyeglasses. Also, in the summer, sweat can cause the lenses to slip off, but since they are designed to fit Japanese faces, they fit perfectly...! This June, ADSR opened a store in Tokyo as well. The store is highly fashionable and offers a wide variety of products, so it's fun to try them on while worrying about this and that.

This is an original hair balm produced by Under the Sun, a hair salon in Ikejiri-Ohashi, Tokyo, in collaboration with Barbersakota. The store also has a vintage clothing store, so I often wander in there to look at clothes, and this one I found at that time was a big winner. The first thing that attracted me was its stylish look. The label is decorated with the work of photographer Shingo Goya. Goya's artwork is on the label. It is not sticky, yet moist and sets my high toned hair nicely! The scent is 100% naturally derived from ingredients such as bergamot, rosemary, and lavender, and is soothing to both body and mind, so that's great too. The best part is that it can be used not only for my hair but also for my whole body. . Yes, it is a perfect item in every way.
