STROLL IN THE SHIZEN vol.2

City and Nature, The North Face Purple Label.

The North Face Purple Label, produced by NANAMICA, is a pioneer in the urban outdoors and one of the first to cross the border between the city and nature. For the 23SS season, the message is "STROLL IN THE SHIZEN. The literal translation of the phrase is "a walk in the nature. In our busy lives, it may be important for us to take another look at the nature around us. So, with a camera in hand, I took a tour of the nature living in the city, using Nanamika Mountain in Daikanyama, which mainly carries "The North Face Purple Label" as a base.

If you live in the city, you should know at least one or two favorite parks. Sometimes it is important for those of us living in the modern world to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city and relax in nature. By the way, I often go to Setagaya Park. Just looking at the trees and the surface of the pond is calming, and when I get tired of that, I can go for a short run in the park.

However, even though it is nature, it is a park in the city. So I want to choose clothes that are relaxed and not too exaggerated. Like this military-inspired field jacket and pants. Oversized, easy to move in, comfortable to skate in, and open enough to enjoy the openness of nature. Plus, I can go straight to that girl I'm interested in and ask her out on a moment's notice.
