WEEKENDS 02 A pair of pants suitable for dad's weekend pants. Tech Shield Climbing Pants Ash Black 2XL


Like Mr. Suzuki, your eldest son, Seita, is also a soccer fan.
Suzuki: I wonder if it is inherited from his father (laughs). If Seita seems to want to kick a ball after his Saturday or Sunday lessons, we play soccer together at the park like today. We pass the ball, and since Seita's position is goalkeeper, we practice shooting lightly. On weekends, we also go to soccer games together.
I envy you, watching the game at the stadium. Which team are you rooting for?
Suzuki: FC Tokyo. I am also pushing for FC Machida Zelvia, although they were one step away from winning the championship. I went to see three games a month this season. Seita likes FC Machida Zelvia's goalkeeper and Japan national team player Akio Tani.


Mizuno's "Tech Shield Climbing Pants" look great with your styling.
Suzuki: I often play with my sons at the park on weekends, so I often wear pants that are stretchy enough and washable like these pants, which is probably why they look the way they do. I think they are also one for dads because they have a deep crotch and are comfortable to wear.
I didn't know it could get so dirty. What other items are essential for holidays?
Suzuki: Sneakers that can get dirty are essential. That's why I sometimes wear soccer training shoes. I also choose tops that I don't mind getting dirty, like a down jacket. Even in such situations, I want to be careful with my clothes, so I use one tone of gray in my styling.

Do you teach soccer to children?
Suzuki: Soccer skills are left to the team coaches, so I don't have anything to say about the technical aspects of the game. As a father, I just want to create an environment that encourages them to love soccer. I am conscious of not only watching the games at the stadium, but also taking them to meet soccer players that I know. I would like to increase such opportunities in the future.
