What if those five wore the new Elle El Bean. Part I

L.L.Bean Japan Edition" retains the classic American mood, but has been arranged so that it is easy for Japanese people to wear. This collection is worn by people who are active in their daily lives. How does L.L.Bean's functionality and designs tailored to the Japanese lifestyle fit into their daily lives? We will follow the affinity between the two collections over the course of the first and second parts.
In the first part, five models with rich personalities appear, including a model who likes bicycling and mountain climbing, a chef who loves fishing, a multi-talented model, and even a vintage clothing store owner who collects the brand's archives.

When I tried it on, I thought the clothes were easy to drop into my daily routine.

Do you come to the park often?

Seven Seas:I often come here to take a walk with friends on my days off, or even when I am alone for a change of pace. I also come here to go for a run or just to read a book. When I feel like getting in touch with nature, I like to spend time in the park.

You like to move your body, don't you?

Seven Seas: That's right. The other day I went mountain climbing at another site. My father is a mountain guide, and he loves physical exercise and contact with nature. Now I am studying to become a mountain guide myself.

That's amazing. You can never be a half-hearted person.

Seven Seas: As I have more opportunities to climb mountains with my friends, I think that if I have more knowledge about mountains in addition to my love for them, I will be able to enjoy them more safely. I think that having such a qualification will increase my sense of security and lower the hurdle for me to enjoy the activity.

Are you familiar with L.L. Bean as a brand if you are used to the outdoors?

Seven Seas: It is familiar to me. In my case, I tend to use "Elle Bean" for camping and other activities.

What do you think of L.L.Bean Japan Edition?

Seven Seas: When I tried them on, I thought they were very easy to incorporate into everyday life. Many of the items are simple, but there are also items with cute designs like this vest, and I thought they would match with a variety of outfits. I usually go camping, so I can wear them for that as well.

I would also like to know the key points of this coordination.

Seven Seas: I'm in the mood for hip-hop these days, so I tried to match it with a 90's-ish mood. I am the type of person who wears what I want to wear at the time, regardless of genre. That's why it's easier for me to choose clothes with a little bit of design in them than those that are basic. In that sense, the "L.L.Bean Japan Edition" seems to be a great match for my wardrobe. Some pieces, like this vest, stand out on their own, while others, like the parka I'm wearing as an inner layer, are simple and easy to match with edgy clothes. I thought that kind of breadth was appealing.
