Fishmans in progress.

WIND PARADE's live show was great. They were calling the wind, calling the wind, and the groove just kept getting faster and faster. As I simply surrendered myself to the space dominated by euphoria, I found myself immersed in a half-dream. Next month is the one-man show we have been waiting for. The title of the tour is "LONG SEASON," and I can't help but have high expectations for it!

UNLIKELY

Unlikely tweed jacket

The men also have the Annie Hall look.

I want to wear a tweed jacket for the first time in a while this fall/winter. Not a casual one, but a well-tailored tweed jacket. However, the "must-have" style of dress that is typical of the Ivy League is a bit formal and distracting. We prefer a rough jacket style that is an extension of our usual attire. In this respect, the tweed jacket from Unlikely is a good choice. This jacket is based on the tweed jacket worn by Diane Keaton in the movie "Annie Hall. As you know, in the movie, the fashionable traditional styling of the jacket, such as excessive layering with accessories, unbalanced size, and loose styling with no shirt inside, was called the "Annie Hall look" and became a topic of conversation. This was called the "Annie Hall look" and became a topic of conversation. In other words, I was hoping that this jacket would allow me to dress freely without being bound by rules like Diane. I was hoping that this jacket would allow me to wear it as freely as Diane does, without being restricted by rules. A scarf hanging from the neck, collar up. I thought that this jacket would be acceptable for such a rough look.

SSSF

S.S.F. shirts.

Comfortable discomfort.

Before,Also in this columnS.S.S.F., which has been in the business for over a decade, has been working at its own pace. We don't hold exhibitions or anything like that, and we just make what we want at our own pace, but finally, we have released a long-awaited new product. This is the first shirt for the brand. One is a shirt made of the American oxford fabric. However, the collar is not the familiar button-down type, but a dress-type wide spread. The front placket, sword collar, and breast pocket are all in the classic American style, but the collar is definitely the reason for the strange feeling of discomfort. On the other side is a striped shirt made of a supple, fine-grained, high-grade broadcloth. It has a very French chic look, but this one dares to use a regular collar. Both of these shirts are ordinary shirts that change their atmosphere drastically with a single collar. We are also happy to see the careful tailoring at the maison level, with its fine stitch pitch.

DAIWA PIER39

Daiwa Pier Thirty-Nine Quilted Jacket and Cap

From early fall to mid-winter.

Like the tweed jacket I mentioned earlier, I am definitely in the mood for traditional items these days. I have a craving for items with a slight British flavor. The first item I picked up this fall/winter season was a quilted jacket from "Daiwa Pier 39. You may be thinking, "Isn't it a little early to buy outerwear? You may think it is a little early to buy outerwear, but this jacket has detachable sleeves, so it can be worn as a vest in early fall. The collar can be turned up or folded back, so it can be worn in a variety of ways. The quilted ripstop fabric and the wild design in the style of a hunting jacket are also points that personally attracted me to this jacket. I think it would look great with heavy-duty pants such as denim or duck and work boots. I also got a hunter cap with ear pads made of the same material, so I thought it would be cute to wear them as a set. The padding is down, and the combination of the two should be easy even in the middle of winter.

NEAT

Neat caps

Awaji Island blue.

This summer, I went to festivals, camping, fishing, and many other places all over the country. One of the most impressive places was Awaji Island, where I was invited by Mr. Nishino of "NEET" and met him for the first time. I heard it is called the "Hawaii of Hyogo," and true to its reputation, it is a beautiful island rich in nature, where the relaxed flow of time and Awaji Island vibes heal you. The evening party with everyone was great, and we had a lot of belly laughs during our short two-day/one-night trip. Next time, I would like to make more time to visit again. It looks like there are plenty of bass fishing spots. The cap in the photo was a commemorative gift for the opening of the N&N STORE, which Nishino-san opened in his hometown on Awaji Island. The bright Tiffany blue color reminds me of the color of the sea on Awaji Island...perhaps that is a bit of an exaggeration. The patch on the front is also colorful and cute. It would be a good idea to wear it as a diversion from a serious outfit. Incidentally, the body of the cap is made by '47.

Another pathetic result.... Let's face up to our weak selves and make the next step. I know it's not cool, but I'll just have to take on the challenge without any sexual punishment. Ah, HOUYHNHNM Running! TOTOKEN, a run-station by Club ♡, will open at the end of September. I look forward to working with you!

NIKE

Nike Trail Running Shoes

Nike's best racing shoes are finally here.

Since its launch in 2017, the so-called "Nike thick sole" has overturned the common wisdom of running shoes and even changed the landscape of the field. Since then, other manufacturers have followed suit, but they still have an overwhelming presence. Nike" is releasing trail running shoes with a full face, and it is "Nike It is "Ultra Fly". The midsole adopts ZoomX foam, the first in the trail running category, and the inside is equipped with carbon Flyplate. It delivers bouncy comfort with overwhelming propulsive force as if it were a thick sole. In addition, the outsole is combined with Vibram's Mega Grip, with a V-shaped lug pattern that provides a solid grip on all surfaces. These are truly Nike's best racing shoes for trails. The shoe is a product that we are very interested in, not only for its wearability, but also for the impact it will have on the scene.

TANNNUKI × Mikkeller

Tanuki × Mikkeller T-shirt

The run and beer are a set.

After running, it's time for beer. While cooling down, we quench our thirst and snack on light snacks, and talk about our daily jogging courses, distances, paces, and even trivial trivialities. The conversation transcends academic background, occupation, gender, and nationality, and is established only through the common language of running. For me, living in the limited world of fashion, this was a shocking experience, but in a good way. This T-shirt is a collaboration between Tanuki, a Japanese running apparel manufacturer, and Mikkeller, a Danish craft beer brand. The T-shirt features the names of both companies in Tanuki's original font, and a graphic on the left hem pocket that mixes the characteristics of both companies. The waffle fabric with water absorption, quick-drying, and UV protection is comfortable for everyday use and works great for running as well. I'm not usually particular about the brand of beer I drink, but this will be a good reason to visit "Mikkeller" once in a while.

New Balance

New Balance Running Shoes

Beautiful gray gradation.

Many sports manufacturers have a lifestyle category. These categories include trend-conscious apparel for daily use and sneakers that are modern updates of former masterpieces, and they play a role in attracting more users by broadening their base. The history and appeal that the brand has cultivated are condensed there. Whenever I find performance gear that captures the essence of such a brand, I can't help but be attracted to it. New Balance's FuelCell Propel v4 CG4" by New Balance is just like that. The midsole is made of soft FuelCell and a flexible TPU plate is added, positioning this model as an entry-level plate shoe. Two new colors are available for the new lineup, both of which are suitable for the city. One of the colors is the brand's iconic gray gradation! Reminiscent of the famous "Lerato," these beautiful performance shoes fit in well on the street. We have a feeling that these will be popular among gearaholic runners.

CITY COUNTRY CITY × HOBO

City Country City x Hobo Capsule Collection

This is the next step after the sakosh.

How long has it been since I started using a sakosh on a daily basis? It is just so convenient for carrying a minimal set of things such as a wallet, business card holder, wireless earphones, keys, and other items for an outing. It expands my storage capacity a lot, just like having one more pocket. However, I've been using it for so long that I'm feeling slightly bored with it as a style. It was at this time that City Country City and Hobo collaborated to release a capsule collection. The lineup includes a waist pouch, a multi-case, and a key chain with a carabiner, and the size is perfect for carrying everyday small items. Furthermore, the leather parts used throughout the collection add to the richness of the products as a whole. Small items with a style that is convenient to have. This will come in handy.
waist pouch ¥13,750, multi-case ¥7,700, key chain ¥8,250

School trips for adults.

My fourth overseas trip this year was to Seoul, Korea. Eight of my work colleagues and I attended the wedding of two people who were members of our company. The four days of our stay went by quickly as we went to the places we liked, ate the food we liked, and stayed at an airby with everyone. Congratulations to Mr. Nakata & Kim!

CFCL

CFCL Hat

Calculated form.

One thing that is indispensable in my daily life is a hat. To protect my head from the blazing sun, I purchased a Master & Co. bucket hat, which was featured in "Shopping Addict" in June of this year, and I wear it almost every day. Now that I can no longer imagine my life without a hat, I think it is time to get a new companion. I have my eye on a seamless hat by C.F.C.L. that combines the crown and brim into one piece. The tilted shape of the hat is unique, and it can be worn with either the short or long brim in the front, depending on the intensity of the sun's rays or your outfit. It is molded of unlined, polyester knit fabric, making it wrinkle-resistant and easy to carry. I quite like this minimalist design.

Tee Tee coveralls

It is more like a tool than a garment.

One of T.T.T.'s staples is this coverall. In fact, it is released every year in different materials, with last year'sthis way (direction close to the speaker or towards the speaker)andthis way (direction close to the speaker or towards the speaker)I introduced the "The World's Best of the Best" in the first issue of the magazine. And this year, I picked it up again, and this is the third time I've featured it in this column (wry smile). I think about it again, and I really like the simplicity of the construction, which is based on American coveralls from around 1910. The wool fabric used for the new collection is a raised wool fabric with a bulky texture. The original fabric was chosen, a reproduction of a vintage blanket fabric found in Minnesota, USA. The original iron donut buttons, also an original, are designed to rust over time, allowing the wearer to enjoy the change. This is truly a brilliant piece of clothing that embodies the T.T. design philosophy of "the future is in the past.

Nikki ESSENTIAL PIECES

Knit by Nikki Essential Pieces

Nice to meet you.

The too-long summer is over and we find ourselves in the latter half of September this year. It is finally starting to get cooler outside and autumn is in the air. Fashion is shifting to a full-fledged change. The knitwear from "Nikki Essential Pieces" will begin to appear in stores in time for the season. You may not be familiar with this name, but that is as it should be. In fact, the brand was just launched this fall/winter season, and the initial lineup includes 12 knitwear styles. One of them is a crew-neck knit, a rib-knit piece made of Australian extra-fine lambswool. While the design is universal, closer inspection reveals that the cuffs and hem are cut off-style for a change. Usually this kind of item is bulky, but this one is just right, not too thick and not too thin. This knit is truly an "essential piece. For more information about this brand, please visit their Instagram.

KUMI SAITO PHOTOGRAPHY #3 ELEY KISHIMOTO

Ely Kishimoto's Photo Gallery

The passion for manufacturing expressed in the pages.

Six years ago now, I edited a book in parallel with my work on HOUYHNHNM's.Titled "The London Collection 1984 - 2017: 83 Starting Points for Brilliance"The book is a compilation of interviews with designers that Mina Wakatsuki, a fashion journalist living in London, has covered in numerous media. This book is a compilation of interviews with designers that Mina Wakatsuki, a fashion journalist living in London, has conducted through various media. It took more than a year and a half to produce this book with Ms. Wakatsuki, who I have known since my former job, and I believe that I have been able to better summarize the real voices of people involved in British fashion. The other day, Ms. Wakatsuki sent us a new collection of photographs of Ely Kishimoto, the third in a series of visual books featuring photographs by Kumi Saito, a photographer who passed away in 2008. The photos of the atelier taken just before the closure of the shop are particularly precious, showing the designer hand-painting patterns, the shelves overflowing with silk screens, and the space crammed with patterns and rolls of fabric, all of which reveal the passion of the brand's analog approach to manufacturing. This is a book that aspiring fashion designers should definitely pick up. In addition to the select store "Vulcanize London," the book is also available at the following storesTHE SHE"Mach 55 LimitedIt is available at the online store at

Silent eating.

I have recently become very interested in the YouTube channel "Mute Shoku. It is a video clip of people and customers at various private restaurants from all over the country. I have never worked in a restaurant before, so this is a world that is too unknown to me, but I find it very cool and admire it, including the sense of "local production for local consumption," which is completed inside the restaurant, unrelated to any glamorous atmosphere.

EXODUS

Exodus slacks

Kitano cinematic.

I have worn slacks more than 300 days a year since I admired the way men on the street wear them. I am not particular about the color, just basic colors that are easy to match and wool material for the cold winters. I wear short hems or long hems, depending on my mood on any given day. Whenever I find an item of clothing I want, I first check the brands of my acquaintances to see if there are any good ones, and I found a pair of slacks at "Exodus" that I liked. Exodus" reminds me personally of a thrash metal band, but this brand was started in the fall/winter of 2022 by SHIMO and SHO, who used to work as designers for a certain brand. As the theme of the brand is "daily wear for the easygoing," there seems to be a relaxed mood throughout the brand. The elegant stripe pattern and warm wool give the garments a mature atmosphere, while the elastic waist makes them easier to wear than they look. Also, selfishly, I feel that this is one that would look good on an actor in a Kitano movie or something.

PAYBACK BOYS

Payback Boys Cap

Authentic.

Headwear such as T-shirts and caps are more of a communication tool than a fashion item. Hardcore bands and HIP HOP, it is a type of clothing that we believe will have more meaning when it is related to HOP. This PAYBACK BOYS cap is just that, and the band name means exactly what it reads. The green color with white stitching and the "Invisible Moments" message below the band's name are just perfect. I don't remember where and when I got to know BOYS... but I learned a lot from interviews and thanks lists, not to mention sound sources and live performances. I was especially influenced by vocalist MERCY's (WDsounds) maniacal viewpoint and way of digging, as if he was picking at the corners of a box. Recently, Hideo (Senninsho) gave a "genuine PAYBACK BOYS Many of you must have been blown away by MITSU THE BEATS' "MAGNETAR," in which Hideo (Senjo) closes the verse with "authentic PAYBACK BOYS" and spits the names of hardcore bands all over the place.

sahoterao

Saho Terao's book "My Rebellion.

For end of year fun.

I got to know Saho Terao when I bought "Elliptical Dreams" after Hama-san told me about it a few years ago. From this work I also learned about Seiki Hanada and Midori Ozaki. I had never thought about ellipses before, so I personally wondered if it was a grayish thing between black and white. After that, I got everything from "Trasmundo," including "Comet Solitude," which was published by Saho Terao, and the LP of "Tandem," which was split into two in winter, in which she was the vocalist. My Rebellion" was published by Saho Terao in July of this year. It is a collection of essays with nine acquaintances from different generations and occupations, including Saho Terao, who says she never had a rebellious period. I purchased this book online rather than through Trasmundo, but I put it on my bookshelf for now, thinking I would read it slowly around the end of the year. Before that, I would like to visit some live concert in Tachikawa or Sendagi in November. I heard "Elliptical Dream" on the way home from seeing the movie "Fukuda-mura Incident" directed by Tatsuya Mori the other day, and it was so great that I decided to go see Hama-san for the first time in a while.

ISSUGI & DJ SHOE

ISSUGI & DJ SHOE's CD "Both Banks - GQ REMIX EP".

Underrated.

The 29-track mix album "Both Banks" was released about 2 years ago, and is a chemical reaction between Tokyo and Fukuoka Hip Hop, created by ISSUGI and DJ SHOE. It is recommended to check it out together with the "BLACK FILE" interview available on YouTube. In the meantime, "Both Banks - GQ REMIX EP" remixed by Fukuoka-based GQ was released last month, and I was surprised when I listened to it immediately. It's too much for me to say, but I think it's a bit out of this world or, to borrow a phrase from ISSUGI's blog, GQ is too "underrated". When GQ performed the song for the first time at P-VINE's "This Town" event, it was so cool that I bought the CD after the show. COVAN's verse in "NL - GQ Remix" is also badass, and "In The City - GQ Remix" is just like this... I just had to listen to it. If possible, please release "Both Banks - GQ REMIX EP" on vinyl too.

Straw.

This summer I was actively wearing a straw hat. I used to be a cap person, but I like that carefree atmosphere. It's already fall, but I'm going to wear it some more, regretting the end of summer. I'm going to try it on knits and stuff, maybe.

Blundstone.

Brand Stone Shoes

Low cut also!

I have been wearing "Brandstone" shoes for about three years now. They have gotten dirty from rain and dirt, and the uppers have been scraped off by bicycle pedals, but now that they have become familiar with my feet, I can no longer live without them. I wear them a lot on a daily basis, but they are especially useful for business trips, traveling, and shooting on location. They are very tasteful because of that. And recently, I got a new pair of these new low-cuts that just came out. This series is called "all-terrain," meaning all-terrain. I tried them on at the shoot and found that the sole, which was jointly developed with Vibram, is excellent, and they are resistant to clogging with mud and indeed are hard to slip on! Moreover, the low-cut sole makes it easier to put on and take off. And because they are low-cut, they are easier to put on and take off. They are also resistant to rain, so I will be wearing them from now on.

LAVENHAM × YLÈVE

Quilted clothing by Lavenham x Ileve

Is it a mild winter?

It is unusually hot this year. If this continues, will we have a mild winter? and I have become interested in quilted items. I think the material is moderately warm, lightweight, and wrinkle-resistant, making it usable for a long season. This item was created in collaboration with ILEVE and LAVENHAM. The polyester taffeta fabric previously used by LAVENHAM has been revived, and the multi-layered finish improves warmth retention. The quilting is also different from the usual, giving it a fresh look. Not to be forgotten is the presence of corduroy. Thanks to this piping treatment, which is typical of "LAVENHAM," the garment not only looks good, but also feels good against the skin. There are other points to consider, such as the forward swing of the arms, so please come to the store for the rest of the article.

A LEATHER

A leather shorts

Cargo is easy to wear.

Until recently, I wore shorts almost every day. Then you get tired of them and want something different. For example, the material or the shape. As the name of the brand suggests, these shorts by A. Leather are made of leather. The cowhide leather, which is tanned from Japanese raw hides at a tannery in Himeji, is soft and has a mesh lining that absorbs sweat and dries quickly, so they feel good when you wear them. I always think that leather pants would lose their shape at the knees, but since they are shorts, there is no problem; the fact that the design source is BDU pants gives them a casual look and prevents the strong feeling characteristic of leather. Even if you are not a fan of smooth leather clothing, I think this is a good mix and match for many people.

BIRKENSTOCK

Birkenstock Clog

Corduroy with leather.

I love corduroy. I just want to touch it and feel its bumpy texture. I also like the way it looks when it's worn and crumpled up. Birkenstock has expressed that material feeling with leather. The look expressed by embossing suede is exactly that of corduroy. I have worn sneakers that use corduroy for the points, and I didn't really feel comfortable with them, but suede is different. Moreover, they are the "Naples" model of clogs, so they have a relaxed feel. Combined with the withering red color, I feel somewhat nostalgic. It is nice to wear them barefoot at the end of summer, but I am more looking forward to the feeling of wearing them with socks in the fall and winter.
