The best basics♪

最高のベーシック♪
This March was warmer than usual.
Because of that, the cherry blossoms were in full bloom early.
I couldn't take my time to see the cherry blossoms because I was preparing for the exhibition, but I went to see them while I was in Nakameguro.


There seemed to be fewer people out than usual, but there were still many people walking around enjoying the cherry blossoms.

Today we will introduce " SALVAGE PUBLIC " which has been gaining more and more attention since the cherry blossoms started to fall.
The long sleeve tee (SANS SOUCI BEACH CLUB) , our top pick for this season, was released in early spring and quickly sold out!

We have a small amount of stock in, but only a few left.
I'm glad that my feelings seem to match yours!
thank you.


The album I'm introducing today is one that I'll definitely be playing on heavy rotation!! It's one of my absolute favorites.

AINA Pocket Tee
First of all, most people may be wondering, "What is AINA?"
It looks like All Nippon Airways/ANA, but it's a little different (lol)
When written in katakana, it is pronounced "Aina."
AINA means "earth" in Hawaiian, and its name embodies the idea that "by taking care of the earth, you will be able to receive blessings from it in the end."
The "AINA Collection" is made using environmentally friendly organic cotton, which is kind to the soil, and is based on the idea that by using crops grown in that soil, we are able to receive its blessings.
The company has always been highly environmentally conscious, and this product is perfectly aligned with the SDGs that have been a hot topic recently.

The garment is made from fluffy knitted organic cotton yarn from Turkey (GOTS certified), making it both comfortable to wear and kind to the earth.

It is produced in Portugal in a very fine factory where everything from knitting, dyeing, cutting, and sewing of the fabric is centrally managed.




As they produce for leading European brands, they did a very careful job.
I traveled all the way to Portugal to see and hear the factory conditions with my own eyes and ears.
They say seeing is believing, but the desire to deliver the real thing has always been something we have cherished.


Sorry for the long digression... We would like to present you with a pocket tee that may look simple at first glance, but is packed with attention to detail and allows you to experience the "best basics."


The cuffs and hem are sewn using two thin needles with closer stitch spacing than usual.


Anti-stretch tape (commonly known as octopus binding) is used from the collar to the shoulders.


There is a pin casually attached to the left side.

And the Simple is Best brand stamp logo is printed on the pocket.


I like this casual and simple logo the best (lol)

There are four colors

The gold yellow I'm wearing is officially called mango.
The colors were inspired by Hawaii's nature and plants.
This color was inspired by the fruit mango.
Just wearing it makes you feel good!
These are the colors that are truly referred to as vitamin colors!


The sage color doesn't come across well in the photo, but it is a pale green color that is a popular staple color at SALVAGE PUBLIC.
This is a gentle color that seems to have a relaxing effect.


White This is just plain white (lol)
There is nothing more versatile than a white pocket tee.
The emerald print color is original and looks great.
I didn't hesitate to get one myself.


Black is just plain black (laughs).
However, this one is colored in the image of Hawaii's volcanoes, and the black and red combination is just perfect! It looks really cool!


Needless to say, it's still chilly in just a short sleeve shirt.
That's why I paired it with a pile bolero from melple !!!



This guy's season has already arrived ♪

I'll be relying on you again until around October this year, so I appreciate your continued support!
That was the feeling I had when I put it on (laughs).
Just having this one piece really tightens up or holds anything in place.
The best!


I personally feel that `` SALVAGE PUBLIC '' and `` melple '' go well together.
Both brands are very important to me.
I would like to continue to explain this to each and every one of you in detail.
