This is the first time I've held an event at my store in a while.
Although I met Abe, a shoe shiner, several times in Hiroshima,
It's been several years since we held an event together at the store.
When I was working in Hiroshima,
It all started when he opened the door for me when he was still a professional student.
I was in my early 20s at the time.
The first thing I thought was that a student who loves fashion had arrived.
“Please let me shine your shoes at the store!”
Maybe it was because I was also selling Aoyama women's shoes at my store at the time.
He told me a story about a ``shoe shiner'' that I was not very familiar with.
Apparently young boys were polishing the leather shoes they had worked so hard to buy.
Apparently it was popular to wear shoes for a long time while maintaining them.
My only image of shoe polishing was that grandpa and grandma did it under the elevated railway.
There were some parts that didn't really hit home for me,
I fell in love with her refreshing and athletic attitude,
After that, I regularly asked to have my shoes shined at the store.
Around that time, the owners and customers of a nearby American casual shop,
People who hear rumors from somewhere and come to us, etc.
It only happens once a month, but there was quite a lot of excitement in front of the store in Hiroshima, where there aren't many people passing by.
A few years later, Abe decided to open a store in a tenant of Tsutaya Home Appliances, right near Hiroshima Station.
At the same time as the number of stores increased, the number of staff increased, and now,
From the first time I had my shoes shined at my house, I couldn't have imagined it.
Today, he is one of Japan's leading shoe shiners.
Coincidentally, this year, at the same time as the new store in Hiroshima, we will also be opening a store in Fukuoka.
He is one of the people who is gaining momentum and is attracting more and more attention.
As someone who will be responsible for the Japanese fashion scene from now on,
As a shoe shiner who spreads the idea of ``polishing shoes to make them last longer'' all over the world,
I can't take my eyes off future trends.
