Now jogging is becoming popular among the Tokyo working girls. Of course the motivation is dieting, beauty and health - the most interested things by them.
But I think that other important factor pushing the popularity is that fashionable sportswear available from major sports brands such as the “adidas by Stella McCartney”.

Re-Style Sports section at Isetan Shinjuku, the most leading department store in Japan, offers not only “adidas by Stella McCartney”, but various fashionable and pretty sportswear from overseas and domestic fashion brands, like a sport corroboration line of “Laula × arena”.

The second article about Japanese fashion magazines! A new spring season has come, and each magazine seems to be full of motivation. As mentioned previously, Japanese readers love the free-bee the mags offer!

Most exciting one in this season was the “see by Chloe” large pouch came with the April issue of the “SPUR” magazine. Since you could get a product of a luxury brand at only about $5, in Tokyo, the magazines were sold-out as soon as they placed them on the shelf.

Others include the corroboration bag of“BETSEY JOHNSON × HELLO KITTY”by PINKY magazine or some lingerie by Sweet magazine etc. Those editorial desks seem to be on fire and the trend may be going hotter and hotter.


These are a Skull print T-shirt and Skull print Cosmetic bags from Tsumori Chisato Sleep. I love the colorful flowered skulls.

Casual clothes brand “LOVE BOAT” has collaborated with McDonald’s to release a cute T-shirt.
Sofia Coppola started a clothing line called Milkfed that is sold exclusively in Japan. Milk Fed is cute, comfortable, mostly made of cotton and definitely affordable. Perfect for the young and label-conscious.

Remember the “Tabi” type shoes from the Martin Margiela boots or Nike sneakers lines? There is more than Kimono for Japanese traditional clothing, and “Tabi“ is one of them.
The “Tabi-shoes” by sou sou are so comfortable to ware and cute. I bet people can’t help noticing it and telling you “nice shoes!”
The “men’s products only” fashion building “Hankyu men’s” has been opened at the Hankyu department store in Osaka.

They have the world-first Louis Vuitton shop that only men’s products on offer, or the world-second shop of Tom Ford, who used to work at Gucci, following its NY’s open and so on, and this must be an endlessly-so- interesting department store for those men who are into fashion.

In addition, there are many other men’s only stores of some of the luxury brand such as Bvlgari or Tiffany. On the casual-ware side, they have the Under Cover, N.HOOLYWOOD or Hysteric Glamour etc. on offer.
It sounds like that the “Isetan Men’s” for Tokyo and “Hankyu men’s” for Osaka will become the epicenters of men’s fashion in Japan. I’d love to go there with a guy with a good taste in fashion.
