The future ahead, walking with cantáte.
Hello!
Thank you as always for reading.
Nice to meet you.
I’m Tomioka from cliché.
Once again, my name is Ryota Tomioka (冨岡 遼大).
This is my first blog post, so please allow me to briefly introduce myself.
I’m 29 years old and originally from Funabashi, Chiba.
At my previous job, I worked at apparel shops for about eight years, moving around the country between Shizuoka, Aichi, Hyogo, Tokyo, Aomori, Shimane, and then Hyogo again before I knew it.
Meeting so many customers in so many different places, I feel it was a truly fortunate eight years.
Through that connection, I’ve now joined the team at cliché.
There is a genuine reason I changed jobs, but I’ll save that story for another time.
I’ve been working on the shop floor since last week’s 27SS order event, so some of you may have already spoken with me.
Once again, I look forward to working with you.
Now that the 27SS order event has ended, 26AW is finally getting underway.
cantáte’s 26AW collection will be available in-store from this Saturday, the 18th.
Today, I’d like to introduce some of them.

The linen denim Chore Blouson and Trousers.
The blouson is a piece you can throw on with the feel of something right between a jacket and a shirt.
They’re easy and light to wear, yet have a strong presence, making them the kind of pieces you’ll find yourself reaching for without thinking.
The trousers strike a balance that feels surprisingly light despite their wide silhouette.
Combined with the light, distinctive character of linen denim, its generous width still gives it a clean look when worn.
Of course, it works as a set, but each piece also stands on its own.
It’s a versatile piece that you can wear in many different ways and keep coming back to for years.

Essential S/S Tee
SIZE : 44 , 46 , 48 , 50
¥27,500 TAX IN
“First, I want you to try it on.”
That was my first thought about this T-shirt.
Even Matsushima said, “When I first put it on, I couldn’t help but say something out loud.”
It isn’t flashy.
But once you put it on, its quality really comes through.
It’s a T-shirt that naturally blends into the wearer’s style and everyday life.

WORLD IS YOURS Tee (Block Letter)
SIZE : 44 , 46 , 48 , 50
¥33,000 TAX IN
A proper T-shirt finished with a crackle-effect print.
Printed on the front are the words “The World Is Yours”, spoken in the film *Scarface*.
It also has a sort of hip-hop group logo vibe, which is something I personally really love about it.
<cantáte>
WORLD IS YOURS Tee (Cartoon Letter)
SIZE : 44 , 46 , 48 , 50
¥33,000 TAX IN
Although it uses the same graphic as “WORLD IS YOURS Tee (Block Letter)”, this piece has an entirely different atmosphere.
Because the print has a different character on the front and back, you can enjoy their distinct changes each time you wear it in and wash it.
The joy of watching it develop is another of this T-shirt’s strengths.
Before you know it, you’ll find yourself reaching for it more often and naturally growing attached to it.
When it was released the other day, it was available only in size 50, but thank you for waiting.
Sizes 44, 46, and 48 have also been newly added.
Matsushima has written a blog post about it, so please take a look.

"Essential Heavy S/S Tee"
SIZE : 44 , 46 , 48 , 50
¥29,700 TAX IN
By giving it just a little extra weight, this piece pursues the reassuring feel of a truly substantial T-shirt.
It isn’t simply heavy; as soon as you put it on, it somehow settles naturally against the body.
The comfort of this T-shirt is one of its strengths, too—well beyond what its appearance might suggest.
<cantáte>
"Enough Space Bag (LARGE)"
COL : BLACK×BLACK , NATURAL×BLACK , NATURAL×GREEN
SIZE : LARGE
¥49,500 TAX IN
A tote bag that truly embodies the feeling of security.
A zipper closure at the top and interior storage pockets add to its practicality.
Along with the peace of mind that your belongings stay out of sight, its ease of use—allowing you to keep even small items neatly organized—is another of its strengths.
It has plenty of capacity, so it easily accommodates a two- or three-night trip.
It’s a bag you can use without hesitation, from everyday outings to travel.
<cantáte>
"Enough Space Bag (SMALL)"
COL : BLACK×BLACK , NATURAL×BLACK , NATURAL×GREEN
SIZE : SMALL
¥33,000 TAX IN
“No compartments.”
This is a tote bag that truly lives up to those words.
With no dividers by design, its simple construction lets you put everything you need straight inside.
You never have to search around wondering, “Where did I put that?”—just reach in and take out what you need.
There’s something about this straightforwardness that makes it so easy to use.
That concludes this brief introduction to the new 26AW arrivals.
This is only a small selection for now, but I’ll continue introducing new arrivals on the blog and online store whenever they come in!
I’m looking forward to introducing everything to you, so please look forward to what’s coming.
And I would be delighted if, little by little, you came to remember me along with cantáte 26AW.
If we happen to meet at the store, a simple “I read your blog!” would mean a great deal to me.
I look forward to working with you!
