. The black "WEAPON OX" is worn with denim as the core of the outfit. The baggy shorts have a 90s flavor, and the silhouette matches the volume of the "WEAPON OX," which is reminiscent of basketball shoes from the 80s.

The denim jacket and baggy shorts are different in aging, creating a rhythmical impression with gradation. The faded sweatshirt innerwear and dress socks add an elegant touch. The retro "WEAPON OX" and denim add freshness to the orthodox style.

The black feet keep the coordination from becoming blurred, and the look is not a nostalgic style tracing back to the 90's, but rather a look with the feel of today's era.
