Hello!
Today marks the end of the OVERCOAT
POP UP event,
and we had so many of you stop by.
The designer, Mr. Omaru,
was actually in the shop for the POP UP,
making it an incredible event.
After closing, we even went out for a meal together, where I got to hear some truly valuable stories.
As an OVERCOAT fan,
it was a dream come true.
If anyone who came to see OVERCOAT
is reading this,
maybe I’ll brag a little about going out to eat with him (haha).
Jokes aside, autumn is steadily approaching,
and more people are starting to choose knits and sweatshirts.
So, this time, I’d like to introduce a recommended knit
that looks great worn all on its own!
Since I've rambled on, let's get right into the introduction.
ssstein
-WOOL/ALPACA KNIT
CREW NECK LS(ST.1294)-
col.BLACK
col.CHARCOAL
Basic, yet featuring textures and sizing
that only ssstein can offer.
Because it’s a simple crew neck knit,
the brand’s unique character is clear and easy to see.
This year, ssstein uses yarn made from a blend of
delicate, exceptionally smooth baby alpaca
and high-quality Geelong lamb’s wool.
I know some people have a negative impression of knit items
because they can be too thick and scratchy against the skin,
or feel itchy the moment you put them on.
However,
with ssstein’s knit, you won't feel any of that stress—
it’s like being gently wrapped up.
You can truly experience that kind of comfort.
The sizing has been updated to be slightly tighter
for a more versatile fit.
Personally, I prefer the relaxed, signature ssstein fit
we’ve seen before, so choosing a size M is also a great option.
Unlike the vibe you get from wearing shirts or sweatshirts in an oversized fit,
knits have a soft impression, so it’s also interesting to intentionally go up a size
and enjoy the relaxed drape.
They aren't just making it bigger because oversized is the trend;
it’s about how the clothing looks when worn,
how to bring out the beauty of the fabric to its fullest,
like they’ve considered the invisible space
between the "person" and the "clothing."
It’s hard to put into words,
but you can feel the persuasive power that only ssstein can provide—
proposing items that are meaningful in every aspect.
I can completely understand why, once you choose ssstein, you can never get enough.
I highly recommend ssstein's crew neck knit as a candidate for your early autumn layering!
And,
I will introduce another ssstein knit style
in tomorrow's blog as well.
Please look forward to it.
