A surprising new look

驚きの新感覚な1着
This year's Golden Week has come under a state of emergency again.
I've been putting up with a lot of things for a year now, but I wonder if there's anything I can do about it.
I had the image that Japanese people are very patient, but it seems that young people have a different sensibility to our generation and don't place any value on patience.
Does that mean that the future of Japan will improve with more people acting with determination and determination? That's what I think... (laughs)
Anyway, I hope that peaceful days will come soon.

Around this time last year, following the first state of emergency declaration, "clothes that you can wear at home in comfortably and that don't look like pajamas" attracted a lot of attention.
The "Bed to Park" line that melple has been selling for some time has been popular for its perfectly-fitting concept.

The item I'm introducing today is not something I wanted to see another state of emergency declared, but...
This is a truly versatile piece that allows you to effortlessly transition between working at home and going out.



Side Walk Shirts
The name was inspired by the image of strolling along the California beach with a cup of coffee in hand.

Even in summer, mornings and evenings are chilly in California.
This is a perfect piece to throw on for such occasions.


Open collar shirt type with a loose silhouette.
At first glance, you might think it's just an ordinary shirt fabric!
It's hard to tell from a photo, but it has a unique smooth texture like Japanese paper,
Stretch fabric that stretches just like a tomcat.

Although it looks like cotton, it is made of nylon-based fabric with polyurethane added, giving it a subtle sheen and a mature feel.

And it's so comfortable to wear!
The theme is "Essentials for Relaxation!", so this is a piece that is typical of melple, who are true to their word.
Even in the coming sweaty summer season, you can wear it with the smooth material or with the front open like a bolero.
Just one piece will be useful as it can serve two or even three purposes.



The elastic loop at the collar is orange for a nice accent.


The cuffs have elastic cord cuffs so that the garment can be worn like a light outerwear.

The pocket on the chest is designed to fit sunglasses and cards in just the right size.



All three colors are really nice!

Beige is a dark color with a military feel to it, and I think it's a color that will definitely appeal to men! (laughs)

Iron plate black.



As always, when I wear black, this is the one I wear the most...
The smoky pink Palms Longsleeve is worn underneath to add a spring-like lightness.

This khaki also has a military feel to it.


It goes well with black pants, but it also goes well with beige chinos.

I really want all of them ♪
It has a similar feel to a pile bolero, and I have a feeling it will be versatile and one of a kind for a long season (lol).
That's one piece I'd highly recommend.

And I paired it with pants too!!
It feels so good, doesn't it?




I'll explain this in more detail next time, but it's moving fast so if you're interested, hurry up!
