It's extremely cold in Fukuoka today.
Summer is as hot as Okinawa,
Winters are as cold as Tohoku.
Yes, Fukuoka is a city with varying temperatures (lol).
As expected, it's so cold today that the warmth of the days has been a lie.
It looks like we'll have no choice but to endure this cold weather for the rest of this week.
When it's this cold, the existence of "warm clothes" can really affect your life...is that an exaggeration? (lol)
Actually, in this corona vortex, I decided to get rid of my clothes.
I left only the bare essentials,
The release of this outerwear is a long-awaited timing.
This is a "FAY" fireman coat that I bought in Italy last year.
Faye from the Tod's Group may not be familiar in Japan, but
It seems to be a very popular brand in Italy.
The fireman coat, which is also a symbolic item of Fei,
As the name suggests, it was designed with the image of a firefighter's uniform.
I've been looking for this coat for a while, but it's hardly sold in Japan.
I discovered this by chance when I went to an outlet store in Florence.
And the last one in my size.
What made it even cheaper was the More Sale, which was tax-free and cost about 25,000 yen.
There is a parade of conditions that allow you to buy cheaply,
There's no reason not to buy it at this price, so I decided it right away.
When I was trying on this coat, the store clerk asked me, "Are you Japanese?"
When I asked, "How did you know?"
``The only Asians who buy Faye are Japanese people who don't buy them.''
When I told the person that this coat costs about 200,000 yen in Japan,
He advised me, "They also come in black, so buy them as well!" (lol)
It's such a memorable coat that it's my favorite among all my current winter clothes.
The fabric is a thick cotton canvas, so although it may fade due to sun exposure,
Even if it gets torn, it can be resewn, so it will last a lifetime.
No matter what happens, I will never let go of this.
Lately, I've started keeping only the things I really like,
As a shopping fanatic myself, this may seem surprising, but
In the end, all that remains is the item that you tried on and paid for properly.
Mail order is also convenient, but there isn't much left.
Moreover, I don't have any leftovers that I bought because they were ``cheap.''
I feel like what I bought at the store after really thinking about it was the best choice for me.
Even if the world becomes more convenient, the truth remains the same.
That's what I feel when I look at this coat.
