Yesterday I went to the order event for ``Isamu Katayama Backlash.''
Every season is really amazing.
And great products will come out,
I'm looking forward to going to the order meeting.
This time, due to recent circumstances, there were not many variations in the materials.
We saw many items that were processed in different ways than previous products.
Among them, I was personally interested...
Riders made from domestically tanned cow shoulder leather called Japan Shoulder.
This Japan shoulder is a classic material that has been around for a long time,
Traditionally, most products are created before being dyed and then dyed.
However, this time, we have hand-dyed riders in which all the dyeing process was done by craftsmen.
You can tell that the uneven coloring in some places is handmade, but
The beautifully dyed leather is a work of art.
It is an item that makes you say that this is what "craftsmanship" means.
This is Italian leather called Italy Shoulder as opposed to Japan.
This is also a standard material,
It has a deep color, probably because it has stronger tannins than Japan.
It seems that the leather was compressed and dyed.
It has strong wrinkles and is very rugged.
It seems that this is also the work of a craftsman,
Are there any leather brands in the world that come up with this kind of idea? I feel like it.
The item that caught my attention the most this time was the "Ukraine" colored riders.
Disassembly of riders dyed in regular single colors.
The item was created through the daunting task of resewing each part.
Hand-dyed and wrinkled are also amazing,
Sewing leather is something that can only be done by highly skilled craftsmen.
The “crazy” rider of sewing it, unraveling it, and sewing it again (lol)
There were many other items that caught my attention,
In previous years, there were many items that emphasized ``technical capabilities'' rather than the novelty of ``materials.''
Everything I see is impressive.
In addition to the selection of materials,
There is no other brand that can offer items with this level of technology.
In terms of price alone, they are not cheap at all.
However, if you make a decision based only on price, you will miss the essence of the matter.
It is impossible to know the true appeal of a product.
I felt the charm of hearing stories from the creators,
Bring knowledge into yourself.
When you meet serious people who are serious about making things,
Its charm should be conveyed.
Going beyond this elaborate process,
If you think about the fact that there are people who can accomplish what no one else can,
There are really amazing people all over the world, and the world is vast.
I'm still there too.
I have to be humble and learn!!
