Sado Island.
I recently visited Sado Island for a photo shoot, and it was, to put it mildly, fantastic. The island is full of attractions that cannot be fully explored in half a day, including not only its magnificent nature, but also foods that can only be found on the island and many places of interest that are on the tentative list of World Heritage sites. The airfield will be renewed next year, so it will be easier to access. Next time, I definitely want to try the black figs!
THE NORTH FACE PURPLE LABE
The North Face Purple Label Down Vest
Vests to love.
The North Face's classic Sierra vest. The brown-tagged vest I used to wear had broad shoulders, and if I tried to wear it over a jacket or blouson, my shoulders would stick out like a Saiyan's. This vest is based on the Sierra Vest, which is the optimal solution for today. Based on the Sierra Vest, we have developed this vest with functions, sizing, and details that can be considered the optimum solution for the modern age. The 65/35 bay head cloth used for the body contains 35% cotton, making it a classic surface with no shine. Furthermore, it is treated with a water repellent finish, so there is no need to be nervous about a little rain. And the padding is photoelectron® down, which keeps you naturally warm. In addition to the front flap pocket, there are pockets of various sizes on the inside as well, so it looks quite user-friendly as well. It looks casually simple, but it is packed with substance. I have a tendency to fall in love with clothes and people like that.

MEIAS
Maias Cardigan
Invincible fluff.
Fluffy is the strongest. It feels good, has a calm atmosphere, and above all, I have never met anyone who dislikes it. The cardigans from [maias] are really fluffy. No, fluffy. That's because they generously use super-kid mohair, which is the rarest of all kid mohair. It doesn't sting your skin, and it even gives you the feeling of being hugged by a big dog. And yet, the coloring is as vivid as a neon sign. It would look quite good tucked into a coat inner or wrapped around a producer. Punkish mohair cardigans are great, but there is also a healing mohair that is the complete opposite of punk. There is a lot to be said for it.

CCU
C.C.U. leather jacket
RE: Corbusier.
The Corbusier jacket, as it is commonly known. It is a common name given to this jacket because it was a favorite of Le Corbusier, a master architect and product designer, and was originally issued to French state-run companies and government agencies. It is a jacket with such fine design that it is hard to believe that it was a government-issued item, but if it is vintage, it may be heavy, the leather may be stiff, or the shoulders may be stiff,......, and it is not something you can easily come across. The most important thing to keep in mind is that the actual design and style of the shoes is not only the same as the original, but also the same as the original. Based on the form of a coverall, the design of the Corbusier jacket is incorporated, resulting in a soft form with raglan sleeves. Combined with moist, supple leather, it lands on the casual side. Although it is leather, it can be worn as casually and casually as a coverall. I think the beauty of [C.C.U.] lies in this democratization of leather.

MALIBU SANDALS
Malibu Sandals mules
Winter is still winter and mules.
Even if you are quite cold, as long as you wear thick socks, your heels are not as cold as you might think. I noticed this when I wore mules last winter. If you can get over the cold, there is no reason not to wear mules, which are easy to put on and take off and have an exquisite loose feel. This year, a number of sneaker brands have released mules, but I personally recommend "Malibu Sandals. The distinctive basket weave on the upper is neither too assertive nor too mature, but rather a subtle design that you will notice if you look closely. There is a sense of modesty, and that is what attracted me to them. Even though they are called mules, they have excellent cushioning, so you won't get tired. They are useful in a variety of situations, such as taking them on vacation or using them as office shoes. Once you try them on, you will surely notice how good mules are.

I've never seen anything like this before.
I went to a wedding for the first time. I usually wear too many casual clothes, so I started by buying a dress, but my pride wouldn't allow me to wear a so-called "skimpy" dress. After going through 5 or 6 shops in Harajuku, I found a nice one with a rag tag. This is my Margiela virgin.
Acne Studios
Technical pants by Acne Studios
From location shoots to drinking establishments.
Come to think of it, I have been buying tech items since I joined HOUYHNHNM's. I think it is because I was attracted by the fact that someone in the editorial department is making noise every day. I think it's because someone in the editorial department is making noises every day. This may be an outdated gender thing, but in a stoic male editorial department, tech items are more comfortable than frilly, fluffy clothes. However, if you wear normal clothes, you may end up looking like a stiff, sporty girl. That's where Acne Studios comes in. First of all, the burgundy color is very austere. The brand name is written vertically on the waist. The fact that the letters are alphabetical and have not been folded down is also a nice touch. As one would expect from Acne Studios, it doesn't end here. There is a zip on the side line, and if you open it, you will find orange velour. The zips go all the way down to the waist, so if you open them all the way up, they look like a pair of track pants. So during the day you can close the zipper and go out on location shooting, and at night you can open the zipper and go to the drinking district. The place to go depends on the wearer, but just remember that there are two sides to these pants.

Eight Tenths Fill Smoke
A life without endurance.
It's time to stop saying that fashion is all about endurance. Especially when it comes to shoes, it is a bit tacky to put up with shoes that are hard to wear all day long, only to come home with blisters all over your feet. This new pair of shoes from "Eighteenth," which is rumored to be not only well designed but also functional, is a pair that will free you from such hassles. As you can probably imagine from their appearance, they are very easy to put on and take off. They are perfect for today's busy people and people who are too lazy to bother with them, as they simply slip on and off without using their hands. The instep is made of an elastic material, so there is no need to put your foot in immediately after putting them on, and above all, the slit in the heel accepts all wearers' feet. They are available in two colors, including beige (sand), but I personally vote for the greenish smoky black. I personally vote for the greenish smoky black. The bouncy volume gives it a modest look. Fashionable and easy can be cheap if you make a mistake, but if you have a good sense of balance, there is no way not to adopt it.

FUJI
Fuji selvedge straight denim
A little bright.
There are several brands whose clothes seem to be carefully made without words, and "Fuji" is one of them. Fuji is one of them, and I can clearly sense this from their website and the way they create their looks. What caught my attention in the 22AW collection was this straight denim. Borrowing from the release, it is made of blue-ear selvedge denim from Fukuyama, Bingo, and was produced in Kojima. In other words, the strength of the product is definitely great. The silhouette falls straight down and has a center press, so it is beautiful without being rugged and denim-like. It is beautiful without having a rugged denim look, and it doesn't look awkward when worn with sweatshirts or T-shirts. Also, if you zoom in, you can see that the orange of the sewing thread is very effective. We often see oranges that are a little deeper than this, but Fuji chose something a little brighter, which is a mischievous touch. The darker color of the folds on the sewing machine is also a nice accent. There is no end to the story of these pants, but the caption on the website is a mere 73 words. Yes, I like them.

Recycled felt slippers from Enderschema
Just slippers, not.
There are many items out there that use recycled materials, but I always pass them by. The designs are often bland, and many of them look like they were made from leftover materials.... I found these slippers from Enderschema, a well-known brand that warmly welcomes me, even though I have such a whirlwind bend. The material is made from old fibers, and the silhouette is quite simple. Yet, the silhouette is simple, yet somehow cute. Is it the mixture of fibers or the piping? This is one of the items in the "Recycled felt" series, which also includes bags and trays. The material is used as a base, and accents are added with leather parts, and I can't get over how meticulous the design is. Finally, as a side note, I have entered a phase where I like everything that is filtered through the "Enderschema" brand. I guess you could say that it's like enjoying all the different ways that my favorite comedy duo performs on the different channels they appear on. Is that a bad fan?

HELLY HANSEN
Helly Hansen Jacket
Sea-derived functional clothing.
I like clothes shaped like mountain parkas and smocks, and I have a number of similar ones, but this one, as usual, caught my attention the moment I saw it. This is the "Nautisk Jacket" by Helly Hansen. Personally, I think the key point is that it is "marine" rather than "mountain," and the details derived from sailing wear, such as the sunglass holder and reflectors, seemed fresh to me. The fabric is a warm, brushed melton wool, which is both warm and water repellent. It is finished in a moderately oversized fit, and will work well in the winter season if an inner down layer is worn inside. And despite its functionality, it has a very modern look. It is a versatile piece of clothing that fits in with any scene, be it at the beach, in the mountains, or in the city.

White Mountaineering BLK for ELIMINATOR
White Mountaineering B.L.K. for Eliminator sarouel pants
Pants on the way up.
There are plenty of functional clothes out there, but this collaboration between "White Mountaineering B.L.K." and "Eliminator" is a quality that sets it apart from the rest. This year's lineup includes three items that follow last year's first batch, which sold out immediately. The sarouel pants are based on the popular sarouel pants released in 21AW and 22AW, but with Octa®, a lightweight heat-retaining material used for the lining, for improved cold protection. The special polyester outer fabric combines a plethora of functions for daily use, such as lightweight, stretchy, water-absorbent, quick-drying, and wrinkle-resistant properties. The drapey silhouette is beautiful, easy to wear in everyday life, and easy to care for. Once you have these pants, I have a feeling you will never go back to other pants.

Marbaux is a French shoe manufacturer with a history of more than 100 years. Although the brand itself ceased to exist in the 21st century, it was relaunched as a new shoe brand this fall/winter under the direction of Toshinosuke Takegahara, who is also responsible for "FOOT THE COACHER". under the direction of Toshinosuke Takegahara, who is also responsible for FOOT THE COACHER, the brand has restarted as a new shoe brand this fall/winter. This pair of shoes created by "Malraux" is based on the motif of simple shoes that were worn in European and American dormitories in the 1940s. As you can see, you can easily put them on and take them off with the velocro, but the upper is made of durable and water-repellent CORDURA, and the sole is made of Vibram, which offers excellent flexibility and grip. The specifications are tough despite the cute appearance. The classic look and modern functionality are irresistible.

FILMENT BAGS
Expanding bags.
I always use a daypack for work, but on some days that can be too big. However, I don't want to go out of my way to buy a sub-bag that I rarely use. The bag brand "Filment" is the solution to this problem. As you can see, the brand offers a full lineup of accessories for backpacks, so you can freely customize the contents of your bag, for example, adding a document case if you often carry documents. With the right accessories, you can go out with a pouch on days when you don't have much luggage, or take just the document case to a meeting, each functioning on its own. Not only are they practical, but they also have a cool design that makes you want to buy and collect them all.

Graphpaper stadium jacket
It's been a long time since I've had a stadium jacket.
With the resurgence of American casual fashion, the stadium jacket is definitely one of the items that are coming back. Graphpaper has released a casual yet elegant jacket, which I personally found to be a perfect fit for me. The body is made of double-weave melton with a smooth texture, and the sleeves are made of moist and soft sheep leather. The length is slim and the width and arms are wide, creating a boxy silhouette, so you can create a modern atmosphere just by throwing it on. It is lightweight yet warm and will be useful even in midwinter if you put on an inner layer.

H&M Move
H&M Move shell
Full-scale specifications at a shockingly low cost!
This summer I spent a lot of time trail running. Many of the race venues were ski resorts, and I now have fond memories of running up and down the slopes while gasping for air. In the green season, you can enjoy outdoor activities at the ski resort, but the on-season is just around the corner. I had never been involved in winter sports in my life, but every time I came into contact with the slow atmosphere of the area or saw pictures of winter mountains displayed in the accommodation, I began to think that I would like to ski this winter. So I acquired a hardshell from H&M Move. It is waterproof, windproof, breathable, and has ventilation, but at 20,000 yen, it is a very reasonable price! I don't really understand ski equipment, but is it enough to wear a fleece and base layer under this? Can someone please tell me (laughs)?

Wool silk cashmere knit by Coopronde
Pleasant knit.
Gentle and enveloping comfort. Knitwear from "Couplonde" is now available. Once again, "Coupronde" is a Japanese brand that started in the spring/summer season of 2021. The brand is gradually gaining popularity for its designs that combine the use of high-quality materials similar to European brands with the big silhouettes seen in American products. The knitwear introduced here is one such item. The wool, silk, and cashmere blend body is smooth and soft, and the rough sizing creates a rough impression. It is hard to find a knit that is both classy and can be cut without hesitation, don't you think?

I had the impression that many of PUMA's masterpieces were low-tech, but that image has been updated with the "SLIPSTREAM LO RETRO," a reissued version of the "SLIPSTREAM," which was originally created as a basketball shoe. The leather upper and suede overlays give the upper a sporty and clean look, while the red scattered throughout brings just the right amount of accent to the foot. The voluminous silhouette goes great with wide-leg pants. I used to wear only black shoes, but I'm also in the mood for light white sneakers these days.

Kikkai kaikei meiketsu jiten (Encyclopedia of the bizarre and the bizarre).
I watched "Shijohan Mythology Taikaikei" again, went to a used book market in Kanda, and learned that Daikanyama Tsutaya is open until 10 p.m. (2 a.m. in front of Corona!). In short, it's the fall of reading. Even if you leave books behind and go out on the town, you end up picking up books.... Why are words so fascinating? To explore this mystery, we began to listen to the radio, which we had not been exposed to in the depths of the Amazon... but rather, the radio.

Utility of counter seating.
The counter seats usually have no backrests and are a little less relaxing, so when I was guided in, I was a little down.... But when you become an adult, they have other benefits. I realized this while talking with Tadayuki Kato of SSZ at the Vietnamese restaurant "Lai Pung" in Ofuna, just before Kamakura. I often go out to eat not with family or friends, but for social gatherings that arise in my social life, and it is at the counter that conversation moves easily. I think one of the main reasons for this is that I can concentrate on the conversation without having to make eye contact or observe the other person. When I am sitting face to face, I tend to pay attention to the timing of when the other person is going to bring his or her food to the table, but when we are both facing the same direction, I feel comfortable in the sense that I can lightly ignore that. Thanks to this, I have become a fan of Mr. Kato. I'll talk about that in the next month. For now, many thanks to "Rypun.

Subu flame retardant sandals
The regret of shoes with holes in them will be cleared up.
It's finally getting cold, and that's when these come in. Warm slip-ons, moc shoes, easy-warm sandals, I still don't know what to call them, but they have become so familiar to my winter footwear over the past few years that I immediately choose these when I have a hard time deciding. I have not had any particular problems except for the soles wearing down due to over-wearing, but the only time I have had a headache is when I make a bonfire. My feet get cold the most, so when I was roasting the entire shoe on a hot fire, the fire sparks hit me! I was so cold that I was burning the whole shoe on the fire, and a fire spit hit my foot! So this year, I'm going to use flame-retardant fabrics. It's ironclad. I might prepare two pairs of shoes to prevent sagging.

Whether the smoke smells good is another matter.
The other day, I was sitting next to an acquaintance on the train and he said to me, "Smoke? I can smell it." He told me. This was a few days after camping. Of course I had bathed and changed my clothes, but the smell of smoke seemed to have seeped into my core. Maybe it's because I've been tending the campfire for so long. I remembered a nifty description in one of my favorite novels: "I went to sleep at night wearing my late mother's perfume, and the next morning, my schoolmates pointed out that I had gotten used to smelling it and forgotten about it. When I got home and sniffed my jacket from the camping day, the smell of smoke remained thick in the air. I think that the smell, in addition to the flickering flames and the unassuming wood-chopping process, has something to do with the fact that it makes me want to get lost in thought or have a long chat in front of the campfire. For a good bonfire, there is nothing better than dry wood, a machete that feels good in the hand, and fragrant smoke.

I give up on this, summer.
I feel like I've had enough, but I still miss the summer. So I'm going to write down some memories for the last time. I am not in the habit of drinking much, and I am not good at carrying around any kind of water bottle. Furthermore, my laziness and sidewaysness are so bad that the contents of my everyday bag are incredibly heavy, so there is no more room to add more weight. So I have kept my distance from bottles since I was a student, but now I have found a new value in them. Home use. On days when it's too hot to go out, you can go out on the balcony with a big vacuum-insulated bottle full of ice and any sours (*let's say lemon sours), play some music, and have a festival in the smallest unit. It was great, summer.... However, I can see the back of time flowing, and the season is nonstop. Since the vacuum-insulated bottle is to keep warm as well, I think I will think of a way to use it in winter. I heard that there is a service called "Oden discount at convenience stores if you bring your own pot," but I wonder if this bottle will work too?
