Hello everyone! The first winter wind of the season blew recently, and I'm sure some of you have started preparing for winter. As the weather gets colder, we tend to wear more heavy, sophisticated black clothing compared to summer, don't we? But are any of you feeling a little bored with your winter wardrobe?

To break the monotony, black is making a triumphant return to THE GALLERY by CHALIE VICE this year! We will be showcasing The Inoue Brothers, who create something special and fashionable even in the color black, from November 1st (Wed) to 28th (Tue).


THE Inoue Brothers is a brand founded in 2004 by Japanese brothers Satoshi and Kiyoshi Inoue, who were born in Denmark. The brand aims to raise awareness of responsible production methods through quality and design in all its projects, and this particular project, which they are passionate about, started in 2006. It was the Pacomarca Project, which aimed to breed and promote highly pure alpacas to the world.

The rare "black alpaca" makes up only about 0.01% of all alpacas raised in the Andes. Undyed, black alpaca wool retains its natural smoothness and luster, reminding us of the inherent value and quality of alpaca.

Charlie says he's always inspired by his friends' passion for black alpacas. He recently sent us a letter, which we'd like to share with you.


Hey everyone. How are you all doing?
I'm writing this letter right now at State Bird, a unique restaurant in San Francisco.

It seems like it's starting to get cold in Japan too.
From the Inoue Brothers, who are raising alpacas with great care on the grasslands of Peru.
I received news that "black alpaca has made the best knitwear again this year."

This is the third time we've featured their product, but their inquisitive spirit seems to know no bounds.
The highlights this time are Aran knit cardigans and crew neck sweaters.

The black alpaca, which the two poured their hearts and souls into, is a one-of-a-kind product born from their trusting relationship with the Pacomarca Institute in Peru.
Their activities protect the alpacas' natural habitat and bring stability to the people living in the region.
I want you to experience the ultimate alpaca texture and deep colors at my gallery.
Oh, and please note that the production quantity of each item is limited.
