Hello! I'm Haru, a fashion geek!!
December is finally here,
and for us fashion lovers, it’s the best season to enjoy layering
and all sorts of different outfits.
When you go out,
you can see expressions in your clothes
that you didn't notice when you bought them.
Whether it's the way they’re lit by sunlight,
or the way the fabric ripples as you walk,
these moments reveal themselves in the midst of everyday life.
A coat, in particular, looks cooler
when it's fluttering than when it's still,
and knowing that is a privilege
reserved for the one who chose that piece.
Clothes aren't just something you wear and forget; the way you style them and their utility change based on the TPO,
and by changing how you wear them each time,
you can discover new facets.
That's why fashion is so profound and interesting.
While thinking about such things with excitement
as I look around,
the town is getting painted in Christmas colors,
and the more the sun sets, the more it overflows with couples.
While it remains a fun time for fashion,
seeing couples everywhere
is a classic annual ritual of suffering for us fashion lovers...
I don't really need a girlfriend "right now," anyway.
It's more like a time for self-improvement...
Rather than rushing to find someone,
I think it's better to meet someone
when I'm truly shining!
So, as part of my self-improvement,
I think I'll buy some clothes this month too.
Yeah, haha.
I still don't have anyone to keep me warm this year either,
but since I have plenty of clothes that keep me physically warm,
I think I'll rely on them again this year.
This is a piece I can recommend
to both those who absolutely love fashion,
and those who have someone to keep them warm.
It is...
08sircus × TAION
-Down long MA-1 reversible-
Our very own 08sircus has released a collaboration item this season with
"TAION," the inner-down specialty brand from Japan!!
To roughly explain what kind of brand TAION is,
they are a down brand currently in the spotlight
for offering high-quality, lightweight, and warm down
at an overwhelming cost performance.
A special item by that group of down specialists
and 08sircus, led by Kiminori Morishita,
a heavyweight in the Japanese apparel industry.
The MA-1 coat that gained popularity in the past from 08sircus
is now a reversible model.
By incorporating TAION's high-performance down into an iconic 08sircus item,
it maintains a mode aesthetic while being
surprisingly lightweight for a down jacket,
making it a piece you can enjoy stress-free.
I personally love 08sircus items
and have bought them several times,
and the brand concept,
"Things I truly want to wear.
Easy and relaxed, yet
chic and elegant clothing."
I get thrilled by items that follow this policy.
This aspect is also reflected in this collaboration item.
While the nylon material gives a sense of substance,
the fabric itself is light and can be treated roughly,
and one of the highlights is
fully utilizing the excellence of the quilting
using TAION down,
while also feeling the charm of 08sircus.
An item born because of fashion specialist
Kiminori Morishita,
fusing 08sircus's signature minimalist and
elegant appeal with TAION's functionality.
The quilted side has a different face
from the outer side,
and since you can change it based on your mood or outfit of the day,
for a fashion lover, it's basically half-price haha.
Hearing "collaboration," "down," and "reversible,"
you might think, "Isn't it expensive?"
But believe it or not...
It's ¥78,000+tax.
Too cheap.
Even though it's down, it has almost no bulk,
so it's an item you can use until early spring,
making it a highly useful piece!!
It's a definitive, must-have piece that I can recommend
as the item to wrap up your year.
Please, definitely try it on!!
