Style 04: Kanta Kitamura with VELA HYBRID I want to walk everywhere. I want to take a walk in an unknown city.
VELA HYBRID BLUE ¥36,300
What kind of shoes are you interested in these days?
I've been wearing something without volume for a long time now. It's been a while since I've worn voluminous sneakers like the "Date" sneakers, so I feel a little fresh. I thought it might be nice to wear something like this once in a while. It's also possible to wear sneakers with a silhouette that makes a statement like this when you're wearing a classic, tight outfit, and then take it out of the outfit.
What direction is your fashion mood heading?
My current mood is to match designer brands with vintage outdoor wear and sportswear. I try to combine them in such a way as to break up the beauty of the clothes. Shoes are decided according to the balance of the outfit, and when I am going for a sporty look, I match leather shoes or something like that.
What did you have in mind when you coordinated today?
Today, I swung in a sporty direction. I'm wearing a vintage shirt inside, but I'm going casual with a blouson and "Date" sneakers. I envisioned a spring-like outfit.
How do you feel about wearing "VELA" by "DATE"?
I thought it was a very European item. This time I coordinated it with thick pants, but next time I would like to wear it with thin pants to emphasize the volume of the legs.
How do you feel about the comfort of the shoes?
It's very nice. It has good cushioning, which will come in handy since I usually work standing up.
What kind of occasions would you like to wear them in everyday life?
It looks like you can walk anywhere, so it would be good for a leisurely stroll in an unfamiliar city or something.
