Why I like 〇〇 techwear.
It's not that I like sweatshirts.
Hello.
This is Sugimura from cliché.
I like this from 〇〇. I think it's different for each person.
Katsudon at a soba restaurant and a late night walk.
Men's beauty salon on payday.
In terms of clothes...
Cantate sweatshirts, etc.
M's braque aloha shirt.
I'm especially drawn to clothes that make me feel like there's a point in choosing them because they're made by this brand.
For example, cantate's sweatshirts have fleece lining that tends to get loose and pill, but no matter how many times you wash them, they still look great and have a classy feel to them.
There are clothes that can completely change your own values.
What about tech wear?
Shaky fabric, oversized, easy silhouette.
Because it is made for sports and movement, it is easy to move around in, and is less likely to absorb sweat than natural fibers, making it easy to care for.
However, Stein's products are made by a fashion brand, so they are a little different.
The soft fabric and attention to detail create a sophisticated silhouette that is not just large.
The clothing that stein creates shows us new ways of being, just as it helps us unravel concepts that have become rigid within ourselves.
It turned my idea of techwear on its head and brought me closer to my everyday styling.

"WINDBREAKER STAND COLLAR JACKET"
¥63,800 (TAX IN)
¥35,200 (TAX IN)
Windbreaker setup.
It's hard to describe in one word, such as sporty or outdoor, but with Stein, it's a meaningful item to choose.
The brand-like GREEN color is a sticky color that you might find in second-hand Patagonia clothing (which I have).
The color saturation is about halfway between the bright GREEN seen in high fashion brands.
Although it is a noticeable color, it can be worn with a dressy style, or it can be sublimated into a luxurious atmosphere.
The wide range of styling allows for a finish that is not limited by color.
The fabric is polyester treated with Taslan.
Normally, fibers are twisted together to make thread, but this is a process in which the fibers are tied together using compressed air without twisting.
To put it simply, it means creating a soft finish without screwing.
It has a texture similar to cotton and has a lot of volume , but when you touch it, it has a smooth texture rather than a crunchy texture.
The jacket is made with great attention to detail.
The pocket position has changed to a zipper, and the drawcord at the hem has been moved from the front to the side.
The length of the sleeves and the width of the elastic at the cuffs have been finely adjusted.
Overall, the silhouette hasn't changed much, but the fabric has been updated to have more fluff.
Due to the number of layers that can be worn as an inner layer and the distinctive contours, it can be used more clearly as an outer layer.
Continuing from the previous model, the pants have an easy-fitting design with a zipper at the hem.
The beautiful tapered silhouette, which is almost straight, creates a good balance so that it doesn't get too active.
There is also a belt loop at the waist, so you can adjust the fit around your stomach,
It's useful as a variation on how to show tuck-in and out, so there's nothing more to say.
Eliminates the problem of not being able to attach a key ring, which is a common problem with Shakashaka.
I don't have the regretful itch of feeling like this is what it was like here.

cantate "The Shirt" ¥48,400 (TAX IN)
cantate "Denim 1955 Trousers (Personal Property)" ¥42,900 (TAX IN)
A style where the shirt is tied up and worn over the top.
This is a natural way to wear Stein's windbreaker.
Even if you match it with another similar outfit, it will not be 100% complete because it will not match the dress, or it will end up looking more like old clothes.
This is a style that can only be achieved with a windbreaker that incorporates Stein's mode, tranquility, and urban atmosphere.
This is a change from what would normally be paired with a jacket with lapels.
This change is not too radical, and it fulfills its role without feeling out of place.

cantate "Sulfur dye Parka" ¥60,500 (TAX IN)
class "CCCA15UNI B" ¥69,300 (TAX IN)
Nine Tailor "Lacking Hat" ¥9,900 (TAX IN)
A perfect match with a hoodie.
This is a style with a limited number of items, just a hoodie and an outer layer.
Since it has a long length, depending on the size you choose, you can wear it close to the feeling of a half coat.
This time of year is a transition period where we go back and forth between cold and hot and are worried about what to wear.
Outerwear that can be used as an intermediate item and allows you to choose how to wear it is useful.
What is the best thing to wear depending on the temperature? A word to those who are confused about this part.
There is no best option for the change of seasons, so please choose based on the idea of what is best.

cantate "Postman Jacket" ¥66,000 (TAX IN)
cantate "T Shirt" ¥20,900 (TAX IN)
Nine Tailor "Wattle Hat" ¥16,500 (TAX IN)
When styling the pants, I thought about how to make use of color.
Light BLUE and dark GREEN.
We arranged colored items from top to bottom, and created a combination that would allow us to expect a synergistic effect between the colors so that GREEN would not be the only one.
Men's Lover Naoto uses BROWN everywhere.
A white T-shirt is fine as an inner layer, but GREEN is an exquisite pair of pants that makes you want to layer the colors.
Tech items are items that have the same fabric and color when set up, but have different roles.

cantate "Assemblage Grange Crew Neck Sweater" ¥137,500 (TAX IN)
m's braque "DETACHABLE 3LAYERED WOOD NECKLACE" ¥24,200 (TAX IN)
For jacket style pants.
The silhouette is soft and round without being crisp, so it goes well with light and soft fabrics for spring and summer.
Both wear leather shoes on their feet.
Windbreaker pants make you want to wear leather shoes with a jacket.
This is a difficult combination to understand, but it is a privilege of Stein's tech wear.
The jacket + leather shoes, what should I do with the pants? I thought of it as a way to fill in the blanks, and the pieces filled in quickly.
Among the brands, there may be other items that are unique to Stein.
It's more noticeable in bold clothing with transitions and docking, but for me it's tech wear like this that feels brand-like.
Stillness and movement, softness and rigidity. Combine two contradictory things into one.
It's easy to do, and it's shaped like this, but when you think about it, it's difficult.
The stein brand serves as an unwavering foundation, and on that basis, we combine the two into one by carefully examining and adding active elements that are slightly removed from the brand.
Yes, finished techwear rarely comes from anywhere else.
There are times when a category that I didn't even pay attention to flickers into the corner of my vision.
It makes clothes that are far away from me feel close to me. As if I had received a special gift, my heart was excited and my vision opened to a new world.
There was still such a possibility! I'm sure it will give you a solid look.
I'm looking forward to wearing this to my favorite men's beauty salon on my next payday.
