When was the first time you encountered it?
Thinking back, it was already 20 years ago.
At that time, I was a university student living alone in Kobe.
I was thrilled by the exotic atmosphere of Sannomiya and Motomachi.
It was around this time that I came across the shop where I worked before. I happened to come across it while passing by and was drawn in by the style of the clothes, which were neither too dressy nor too casual.
I can picture a striped Basque, slacks, and vintage All Stars.
Kobe has a strong port city feel, and the refreshing marine style is a typical example of fashion. I was observing the fashions of shop staff and people in the city, hoping to break away from street style myself.
At the time, a friend who spent the same amount of time with me was wearing a SAINT JAMES Wesson, which I thought looked nice, but I was too embarrassed to own the same one, so I bought an ORCIVAL that was recommended to me at a store I frequented.
The border was divided into panels, which made for an interesting design, the fabric was soft and comfortable to wear, and the length was perfect for someone like me who is tall.
After that, there was a boom in short, tight-fitting helmets, and people switched to Wesson helmets, but they have been away from them for the past few years.
LENO's denim jacket captivated us, but his Basque shirt was also outstanding.
First of all, it's a relaxed fit.
Not only have the armholes and length been enlarged, but attention has also been paid to the pitch of the border and the way the décolleté looks, and it looks great when you actually wear it.
In addition, the Russell knit fabric is an original LENO material and is a fairly faithful reproduction of the vintage version.
The Russell knit fabric was a proprietary feature of the aforementioned products, but it has a different texture than the current model.
It's great that there's a wide range of sizes available, so you can choose the one that suits your style.
He is wearing numbers 3 and 2.
This year's model keeps the same Russell knit fabric, but the length, sleeve length, and neck opening have been changed, making it even easier to match with other items.
It looks like I'll need to buy more of this even if it's the same size.
Today, LENO has added a new short-sleeved Basque shirt to its lineup.
We also have SAINT JAMES available as a game, so you can choose whichever suits your style.
