ISETAN MEN'S , which is about to undergo a renovation this spring, features brands and items bought from both Japan and abroad, skillfully incorporating elements that reflect the times. These include the latest designs and styles that change with the diversification of lifestyles, and classics that possess timeless and universal value. At first glance, the collection may seem contradictory, but through the filter of ISETAN MEN'S, the contours of real men's fashion are vividly depicted.

Facetasm Butcher Vest: ¥108,000 (sheepskin), ¥59,400 (denim)
■ Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building 2nd Floor = International Creators
*Available from Wednesday, March 6th

Following various initiatives to commemorate its 15th anniversary in 2018, Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building Building, is entering a new phase for Spring/Summer 2019, aiming to become a truly unique and overwhelming "PEERLESS STORE." As part of a store-wide event starting March 6th (Wednesday) with the theme of "ARCHIVE," the International Creators section on the 2nd floor Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building will be exclusively releasing复刻 items that infuse historical masterpieces with a contemporary sensibility from approximately 15 brands. FACETASM, which has gained popularity with its collections that elevate iconic street items to the realm of high fashion, will be re-releasing its masterpiece butcher vest, which was released in 2007 and is linked to this season's trends.

The Butcher Vest from FACETASM is an item that designer Hiromichi Ochiai himself loves to wear. A staple that symbolizes the brand, it has been continuously released since its initial appearance in 2007. It features pockets for storing personal belongings such as cell phones and e-cigarettes, making it possible to go hands-free if you prefer to travel light. Even after 12 years since its debut, it perfectly fits the current trend of "bagless" fashion. Furthermore, its appeal lies in its connection to Ochiai's real-life lifestyle, as he enjoys riding his BMX while feeling the street vibe.

This time, two types are being reissued exclusively at ISETAN MEN'S : supple black sheepskin and raw denim. The sheepskin has a look that is uniquely Facetasm, blending street style and high fashion, while the denim is also the brand's signature material and is truly iconic. The different materials give them completely different impressions, making you want to consider buying both and splurge.
