OUTDOOR CHILLING vol.1
I thought about this and that about the outer chill.

You don't have to have it, but it's useful to have gear. Not over-the-top like camping gear, this time it's just outside chill gear. . So, I want something that can be quickly packed in my regular backpack, yet still be small and chic. This spring, the long-established outdoor store A&F opened a new store in "Shibuya Scramble Square Country," which opened a new store in "Shibuya Scramble Square" this spring, is apparently full of them.

Matador is known for its compactness and light weight, and these sheets are particularly impressive. The mini size for one or two people weighs only 37 grams and fits in the palm of your hand when packed in a stuff sack; the regular size for two to four people is also small enough, but this is definitely the better choice for casual use. It is also highly water-resistant, so it can be used even on grass that is wet with dew in the morning. If you can always pull out something like this, you will be well on your way to becoming a master of outdoor chilling.

It's nice to be small and compact, but swinging too far in that direction often compromises comfort. . On the other hand, chairs for camping are over-the-top and difficult to carry. So, here it is. It's easy to wrap up and put in a bag, and the seat is thick, so it's comfortable. Also, the quality of the outside appearance is totally different without the backrest. The straps will not tear even if you put all your weight on it, so don't worry. By the way, if you unbuckle it, you can even sleep on it.

. Although it is getting warmer, it gets chilly after being outside for a long time. It seems that I still need a warm drink. Klean Kanteen, born in California, the mecca of outside chill, is a colorful brand that goes well with the spring weather. klean kanteen, born in California, the mecca of outside chill, is colorful and goes well with the spring weather. It has sufficient heat- and cold-retention performance, and the drinking spout is made for coffee, so it is very easy to drink. The handle also makes it ideal for carrying around.

. In the spring, we are all tempted to pull down our shorts. However, if you wear shorts and chill outside, you may be a little worried about insect bites. For those people, I recommend COGHLAN'S bug pants. The lightweight, thin mesh fabric keeps pests out. There are drawcords at the hem and waist. . And at under ¥3,000, they are surprisingly affordable. There is also a jacket, so you can wear it as a set-up, or it could be an interesting accent to your everyday outfit.

With one of these, I can eat chicken and roux in a chicken curry, or even pho from a street vendor without a problem. The spork is a useful piece of gear. These days, even convenience stores charge for cutlery, so it's a good idea to keep a Spork in your bag. When stored, it folds up compactly and weighs only 15.4 grams, making it extremely light. It might be a good idea to attach a small carabiner to it and hang it on your bag.

The "Chico Bag" is compact when stored, but when unfolded, it quickly transforms into a messenger-style bag. Made from 100% recycled PET bottles, it is environmentally friendly and strong enough to carry a takeout curry or a 2-liter PET bottle. It can easily hold takeout curry and a 2L plastic bottle. The thick strap is also good, making even heavy luggage feel light. The wrinkled feel of the bag also gives it the roughness that is typical of Gaitil.
