Let's see everyone's sneaker style! How do you wear Descente's classic shoes?

In fact, DESCENTE has been producing excellent footwear in recent years. Its standard models, the "VERTHER" and "MODULARIZE," are equipped with functions such as high breathability and waterproofing, a good fit, and light weight, while the design has a minimalist appearance that does not look like a sports brand. The high specs of these models have often been focused on their functionality, but how do they fare as fashion items? We will examine its true value through the styling of four people.

Case 04 Takuya Hata (BEAMS Press) Item A_MODULARIZE V1 24.1

PROFILE

Born in Hyogo, Japan, he has been in his current position since 2017. Enjoys baseball, visiting temples, and street dancing. Drinking alcohol is no longer his hobby, but his life's work.

Ms. Hata, you always wear a gold necklace, don't you? Where did you get it?

Qin: I bought it a long time ago at a store that sold grams. Gold has gone up in price recently, but back then it was still cheap.

I like the inclusion of the story. The styling of the "VERTHER B MID 24.1" gives a sense of unity.

Qin: The shoes themselves are a beautiful olive, so I styled them with gradation in mind. Both the top and bottom have a bit of olive in them, with the outerwear by Pua and the pants by Winnich & Co.

VERTHER B MID 24.1 ¥19,800

Do you have a favorite style?

Qin: I like monotone street style. The "VERTHER B MID The styling with "24.1" shoes is just like that. I am conscious of the volume and material of the shorts. Even though these suede shoes have a breathable and waterproof fabric in between, the upper fabric eventually fades and the appearance often deteriorates. In fact, many of them are no longer wearable because of the faded color. As for these shoes, I was told that they have undergone durability tests for color migration and waterproofing. This is the kind of trustworthiness that sports brands are known for.

What did you think when you actually tried them on?

Qin: I don't have many shoe choices because of my wide feet, but I appreciate that both are wide and easy to wear.

Tell us about your recent interests.

Qin: I am a big fan of the Hanshin Tigers and we are in a good position this season. (As of September, when I interviewed him, he was looking forward to the championship.
