A strong ally during business trips

It's quite cold today, isn't it?



Actually, starting tonight I'm going to Nagoya for the first time in a year.

I'm also going to visit Ise Grand Shrine.

Before I knew it, it had been five years since I visited Ise Shrine.

If you ask me if I have feelings, that's all.

The divine atmosphere of Ise Grand Shrine and the feeling of refreshing your body after visiting the shrine.

And after visiting the shrine, the number of customers increases (lol)

Maybe it's just my imagination, but I always try to go there around this time every year.

In the past, people used to go on motorcycle tours from Tokyo and Chiba.

Two years ago, I went to Ise Jingu by motorcycle from Hiroshima.

Since last year, I stopped riding motorcycles because I thought the Shinkansen was the safest option in terms of physical strength and accidents (lol).

This year I will be flying from Fukuoka.

But it's extremely cold today.

It's quite cold probably because of the rain last night.

However, if you wear too much clothes, it will be hot when you go on a ride, and your jacket will be bulky.

That's why from last year, a heavy-duty down vest is the best...no pun intended (lol)

The one I'm wearing now is from Isamu Katayama Backlash, which often appears on this blog.

Yes, this is actually leather!

The surface is made of kangaroo leather, which is light and durable.

The down is the highest quality down with a serial number made in Poland.

If a fairly famous brand were to make one with this content, it wouldn't be strange for it to cost 500,000 yen.

However, at Backlash, even though it is the highest quality, it costs only 140,000 yen.

If you just look at the price, you might think it's not cheap at all, and in fact, it's too expensive.

However, if you buy a decent down for around 140,000 yen,

It is made of smooth nylon and the inside is made of cheap material such as duck instead of real down.

Moreover, instead of repelling the rain, it sucks it in, causing the oil on its fur to stand out.

If you prioritize quality, even if the price is high at first, you can wear it for many years.

Naturally, it is better to buy something that is really good.

The idea of ​​buying from a long-term perspective and not being stingy even if it's expensive at first is similar to watches!

Well, I'll leave you with a long introduction here.

Choosing a watch for this long-sleeved season...well, you don't do that, right? (lol)

Many people use the same watch all year round without taking care of it, and it accumulates dirt and grime...

Hi, I said something a little mean.

But most of the time it is.

If you have any sense of crisis after hearing this, please request us to take care of it for you!

I have written many times in the past that when choosing a watch, just like clothes or shoes, ``size is important.''

For example, whether your height is 160 cm, 170 cm, 180 cm, or more,

If you wear watches of the same size, your balance will be poor.

Furthermore, wouldn't it get in the way if you wear a big watch when sizing your clothes?

This is the story this time.

The store's current lineup is the result of having used a variety of watches over the years.

I believe that watches should match your body shape and lifestyle, not price or reputation.

After all, a typical householder doesn't need a watch that costs more than 1 million yen, right?

I don't need it at all, but if you do, please let me know why (lol)

That's why I think it's surprisingly important to choose a watch that matches your clothes and person's style.

When I was an office worker, I wore a big watch out of the trend of the times.

To put it bluntly, it's a nuisance, and it's made of such poor quality metal that if you hit it, you'll get scratches right away...

Ah, it's a watch from a famous brand that you all probably know.

I found it difficult to use for the price and the quality was poor, so I decided I didn't need it.

I was using it because I thought I needed it for work...

I'll never forget it because it got caught on the inner sleeve of my favorite outerwear!

It brings back painful memories of taking it out in the cold to get it repaired.

It goes without saying that the metal of a watch is harder than the fabric.

Anyone can tell you that if you hook something on it, it will break easily.

But you don't take off your watch every time you put on and take off your clothes, right?

A watch that fits on your sleeve not only looks elegant, but

Maybe there is some meaning to this.

If the watch is small enough to fit inside the sleeve/cuff area, it won't damage your jacket.

But a watch that sticks out from the cufflinks can also damage the cuffs of your jacket.

It's not uncommon for clothes to get damaged in everyday life,

What if this happens when you're on a business trip or have an important presentation and the watch damages your clothes and you don't notice?

It can be so embarrassing that the hem of your shirt is sticking out of your pants.

Because that watch is probably something you're proud of, so other people besides you are probably looking at it as well.

What if your watch is a luxury item, but the sleeves of your clothes are in tatters?

Appropriate sizes for many things, including not only watches but also clothes, have been determined a long time ago.

This doesn't mean you should be nostalgic,

Each size has a meaning.

However, in recent years, it seems like there are a lot of products with unusual sizes and designs, perhaps because they place an emphasis on novelty.

Knowing your own appropriate size is not just about good looks;

I think it also helps reduce stress in daily life.

After all, there are times when there is nothing that can be done about the limitations of being difficult to move or use.

The stress that occurs at that time is great, and the damage that it usually causes is extraordinary.

What if you end up tearing your precious clothes due to the size of your watch?

That happened twice, so I immediately got rid of that watch (lol)

Recently blogged about clothing stores? I write about clothes as much as I can.

After all, there are many people who want to do the things they see first.

There are many people who don't know much about watches, so they just give it a try.

But because you don't know, it's important to listen to what other people have to say.

It could be an opportunity for you to learn something you don't know, and you may be putting in the wrong information.

It is important for people who are buying a watch for the first time or not to know about their size.

I'm sure the way I choose things will change forever in the future.
