now or later
Good evening. This is Ikeda.
Did you get anything from the first sale?
I've been thinking about going to the sale, but I haven't been able to go to the sale yet.
This is because even though I had been planning to make new glasses, I hadn't been able to make them, so since it was a new year, I went to make them.
The sale isn't going to end anytime soon, so I'll probably have a look somewhere when I go to pick up my glasses.
Sales are good or bad depending on inventory status and discount rate, so it can be difficult to decide whether to go now or go later.
I think it's like a treasure hunt, so I don't think about whether it's now or not.
Even as I was writing this, I realized that every year when I go on sale, I buy new spring/summer items.
If it's an early brand, delivery of SS will start in December, so there may be some people like that.
Delivery of ULTERIOR has also started from December.
I don't have anything in particular to talk about, but I thought I'd introduce some items from each brand that I want to wear now, and some that I want to wear later in the spring.
There's no way I can't wear any item these days, so the content may be a bit vague, but that's just the charm.
First, choose the item you want to wear right now.
WOOL FLANNEL F/T PARKA from ULTERIOR.
Personally, I think that although the design source is a fishtail hoodie, it also incorporates elements of field wear.
It's both military-like and field wear-like, and the sense of balance that it has is amazing.
The splendor of the fabric that is unique to ULTERIOR is guaranteed, so it goes without saying.
And from YASHIKI is the Shizuku Curl High Neck Knit.
The sturdy and thick fabric makes you want to wear it as an inner layer in winter.
It's not that expensive, but the high neckline is a nice feature during the cold months.
The curled collar and sleeves will give you a cute look when you peek out from your outerwear or when you take it off.
To be honest, I have a strong desire to buy it, but since there's only one item in stock, I'm trying to hold off a little longer.
Next up are items you'll want to wear once winter is over.
The first one is INNAT's BOMBER JACKET.
This is made from L-2B, so there is no padding and the fabric feels thin.
The silhouette is quite loose, so you can still wear it now as long as you wear it with an inner layer, but I think it would be more useful in early spring.
And the undulations of the zip are personally irresistible.
These undulations are created by changing the degree of shrinkage on the front and back to create puckering.
Rather than a relaxed atmosphere, I felt it had a slightly relaxed atmosphere.
Next, from satou to sotogi fatigue jkt.
The chubby pockets are probably the best feature.
I also wonder if the lack of a flap makes it look untidy.
The lacquered buttons, typical of satou, also have a nice plump shape.
It's not flashy, but I think the attention to detail is connected to the Satou style, so I'd like people to feel that aspect as well.
And finally, SAYATOMO's 2-Tack Baker Pants.
I'm still wearing this one, so it feels like it's the same now and in the future, but it's the thinnest of this season's SAYATOMO.
Even though it is polyester, it has a slightly brushed feel, and I once again feel that the fabric has a unique feel.
It's also stretchy so it's comfortable to wear.
Since it is 100% polyester, it can be worn for a long time.
So, based on my own opinion and bias, I would like to introduce items that I want to wear now and items that I want to wear after winter is over.
Items you want to wear now, items you want to wear first, and items you want to wear anytime are on sale right now.
