Close to Dodger Stadium . Rest and creativity coexist at Canyon Coffee.

Mr. Otani continues to break records in MLB history. . He has been using Dodger Stadium as his home base since this year.

The area where the stadium is located is called Echo Park, and in addition to the stadium, there is a large park, a row of private stores, and many small communities. . It is a place where time is slow and tolerant, not the bustle of the city.

Canyon Coffee was born in such a location in 2016 . The founders, Ally and Casey , are also long-time residents of the city.

The menu is 100% organic. The coffee is roasted in house and is made from carefully selected beans, paying special attention to their origin and production process. The fresh juices are great, and the toast is super delicious.

Canyon Coffee beans are currently sold in more than 300 locations in the United States. Canyon Coffee even distributes to Erewhon, a high-end grocery store frequented by celebrities throughout Los Angeles.

Above all, the atmosphere of the restaurant is great, and the world of Donald Judd and Georgia O'Keeffe, Ally and Casey's favorite artists, is represented, with works by local artists on display throughout. . it is truly a combination of Marfa, Texas and New Mexico. The people who gather here are also unique, and just having coffee here is a place where ideas come to life.

Minimalist, primitive , unique.

Ally and Casey have found inspiration from their travels around the country and abroad, as well as the community they have built in their hometown of Echo Park. The Canyon Coffee Souvenirs are the result of these two things. . no bells and whistles, rustic, sophisticated, and witty.

CANYON COFFEE Canyon Echo Park Tshirt ¥10,400

The first is a blue T-shirt designed by artist Bailey Elder, a good friend of the two founders.

The classic fit of this T-shirt is made from cotton, which, like Canyon Coffee, has become an industrial waste material in order to conserve water and energy. Moreover, it is knitted, sewn, and dyed in Los Angeles. It is truly "Made in Los Angeles.

CANYON COFFEE Canyon Sweatshirts ¥21,300

This rustic crewneck sweatshirt is printed with "canyon" on the front and "Los Angels" on the back collar, and is available in three colors. The fabric is sturdy, 14 oz. . It may be too hot for a sweatshirt, but stocks are already low.

It looks great on its own, and its unassuming design is also very comfortable. Make your decision early so that you don't find yourself saying, "I should have bought this in the fall...".

As with the T-shirts, the knitting, sewing, and dyeing are done in Los Angeles.

CANYON COFFEE Navy Echo Park Hat ¥6,100

Washed navy blue 6-panel cap in cotton 100% with embroidered logo . Faded look is also nice.

I think it will age more with washing and exposure to the sun, and that is what will give it the uncle look of the Dodger fans of yesteryear at the stadium. I don't have to tell you how well it goes with blue jeans. Size is adjustable .

CANYON COFFEE Blue Tote ¥5,700

Like the T-shirt, this tote bag was also designed by Bailey Elder . Bailey's work is characterized by motifs inspired by nature, which he intentionally simplifies and yet abstract in form.

The art on the tote bag was also inspired by the river . They are useful not only for daily use, but also for storing food at the farmer's market, as a second bag for travel, and in any other situation. The blue and white color scheme is also typical of Los Angeles.

CANYON COFFEE Canyon Diner Mug

Lastly, I would like to introduce a mug that is actually used in Echo Park restaurants. It is the one with the thick drinking spout that is often seen in American diners.

The solid curved handle makes it easy to hold , and it has a capacity of 10 ounces (295 ml). Pouring a generous amount of coffee and guzzling it down is the American way. . Unlike thin mugs, it is also great that it retains heat well.

In addition to the items introduced here, Canyon Coffee stationery and T-shirts with different designs are also available on the CITY WALK PROJECT's e-commerce site.

Store souvenirs are different from souvenirs . If you use something from a store in Los Angeles in Japan, you feel as if it were your own, even more so. Knowingly or unknowingly, there is a mysterious charm that pulls you into the local mood.

Now, our next focus will be on the souvenirs of the Chinese restaurant WOON KITCHEN. It is a very popular restaurant in the area, and the apparel mixing Los Angeles and China is a comfortable temperature. We hope you enjoy this one as well.
