. What is the point of today's coordination?
Yamada: When I wear a cap, I try to match it with a jacket, cardigan, or other item that makes me look a little more mature. However, I balance it out with a vintage T-shirt with a loose neck so that the overall tone does not become too dark. It's the same as usual (laughs).
How do you like the hat this time?
Yamada: This one is nice and shallow to wear. And because it is corduroy, it has a classic mood. I don't really like deep caps like baseball caps, but I have a lot of shallow caps that I can use easily.
Do you also use items from "New Era" for styling?
Yamada: I use it for visuals where I want to create a sense of reality. The atmosphere changes quite a bit depending on whether or not the hat is used. I also use it when I want to create a slightly younger or more casual look.
