Fuinam will be there, too! “Namba Soto Fest 2026,” an urban outdoor festival that’s fun for everyone from kids to adults, is coming up.

The outdoor season isn’t limited to summer. Fall offers pleasant temperatures that are perfect for camping, and hiking among the fall foliage is a delightful experience. With stable air and water temperatures, it’s also ideal for fishing. Why not check out an event like this to find items that will enhance your fall outdoor adventures?

"Namba Soto Fest 2026," an urban outdoor festival where everyone from kids to adults can enjoy watching, touching, and experiencing the activities, is coming soon!

The venue is “Namba Parks,” a lush, green shopping complex located just a short distance from Minami, one of Osaka’s most famous entertainment districts. Now in its fifth year, the event brings together outdoor brands from across the country, showcasing a wide range of gear for activities such as camping, fishing, and hiking.

As you can see, here are the participating brands. Even though we use the term “outdoor,” there’s a wide variety of brands represented here. We’ve been told that more participating brands will be announced as they are confirmed.

And this year, “Fuinam” will also be participating as an exhibitor. We’ve prepared three special features!

First up is a special sale of collaborative items that Fuinam has created with brands it has close ties with. While these items are usually sold exclusively online, this is a rare opportunity to see and touch them in person! In addition to the following four items we’ve recently created, “The Apartmentor "CITY COUNTRY CITY〉We’ll also have many other items available that aren’t listed here.

FreshService × HOUYHNHNM
WEATHER SHIELD UTILITY SHOOTING COAT ¥57,200

Based on the concept of ”Uniforms for Editors,” 〈FreshService〉This coat was designed with that in mind. It features a large outer pocket and plenty of smaller compartments on the inside, so you can easily store everything you need when you’re out and about. It’s quilted for excellent warmth, making it perfect for fall and winter camping and fishing. The outer fabric uses “WEATHER SHIELD,” a water-repellent 3-layer material, so you can simply pull up the hood stored in the collar to stay dry in light rain.

Iijima Mountain Lodge × HOUYHNHNM
Meeting Best ¥19,800

This knit vest was created out of the Fuinam editorial team’s desire for a versatile piece of clothing that can be worn anytime, whether outdoors or in a business setting. It is made from Polartec Alpha Direct, a fabric that offers excellent breathability and warmth, and “Iijima Mountain Villa" is manufactured at a Japanese factory that enjoys our utmost trust. The silhouette is inspired by classic traditional styles. It features a drawcord at the hem, allowing you to adjust the length to your preference. Thanks to its simple design, it blends seamlessly into any setting or outfit—whether in the mountains, around town, or at the office.

rajabrooke × HOUYHNHNM
Editor's Column ¥11,000

“Under the theme ”Fuinam’s Take on ‘The Editor’s ◯◯,’” 〈Rajabrooke〉A super water-repellent furoshiki we created together. It features a powerful water-repellent finish that lets you scoop up water just like a bucket. It’s a handy item you can use to wrap and carry your belongings, wrap up gifts to bring along, or even quickly wrap around your head or bag when it starts to rain. The color is navy and off-white. The distinctive Asian batik pattern adds a stylish accent to any outfit. It’s sure to come in handy when sitting on wet chairs or the ground during outdoor activities.

Another key feature is that it’s slightly see-through, so you can see what’s inside. The colors are White × O.D. and Blue × Black two-tone. It’s perfect for outdoor activities—use it as a wallet substitute or to keep small items you don’t want to get wet all together.
