来年のモチベーションが届きました。

Next year's motivation has arrived.

Order event for "Isamu Katayama Backlash" held in summer.
At that time, I was determined not to buy anything, but
I ordered the riders that I fell in love with at first sight.
It has already arrived (lol)




The plan was to release it around February next year, but
This series seems to be the fastest delivery,
For better or worse, I am filled with joy (lol)

The material is the world's finest Spanish lamb leather.
A super luxurious piece made from lamb that is less than 9 months old.
Speaking of Spanish rum, it is the high-quality leather used by famous maison brands.
Saint Laurent and Louis Vuitton riders are also made of the same leather.

When I tried it on while listening to such an explanation at the order meeting,
The leather is indescribably soft and fine-grained.
I did the "fresh water dive" again, which I don't know how many times I've done it in my life.
Just as I was thinking of trying my best until February next year,
Just before the event in Hiroshima the other day, I received a notification that it was in stock.

Backlash sometimes has early delivery, so
I thought it would be around the end of the year at the earliest,
I'm glad it arrived during the leather season.
I was nervous and had mixed feelings because I wasn't mentally prepared.
When I see the real thing, I'm really excited!

Recently, "leather" has become a trend, and it is being sold by various brands.
Even if the shape is good, there are many things that make you feel uncomfortable the moment you touch the leather.
Most of the things I don't want to buy as soon as I see the price.
In such a situation, when it came to the double and highest quality lamb leather that I wanted,
I have no choice but to buy this before something better comes out.
The price is not always cheap, but
The moment you see and touch this leather, you will forget about the price.
I think that kind of thing is really good.

Personally, I think "price" is one guideline,
If you judge things only by price,
I feel like I'm missing something really important.
It is true that these riders are the most expensive clothes I own, but
The fact that other brands cannot handle this leather,
Even if you were to use the same leather, the price would easily exceed 300,000 yen.
Backlash is the only brand that can sew and manufacture the highest quality leather domestically.
If you take that perspective, it's not just the price.
You will find the information you need to buy something really good.

There is a lot of excitement about the world being sustainable, but
I wonder how many things are inherently sustainable.
Really good products are not sold in shopping centers or mass retailers.
Since we cannot mass produce things that we are really particular about,
In most cases, it can only be purchased in a few limited places.

And the better it is, the more it will cost.
But it's a little different from just the high prices.
I am thinking of continuing to purchase to some extent, so
It's often a price you can get if you work hard.
This is sustainable.

If you want something really good,
Go around the store on your own,
Hear from the shop staff with your own ears.
I believe this is the first step towards encountering something good.
