I'm Shibata , buyer for Authentic Wear .
The Fall/Winter 2019 exhibitions are currently underway in Tokyo. I couldn't make it to Europe this time, but I'm thinking of going to Paris next time.
Whether you prefer modern or traditional styles, Paris is my recommendation right now!

My refrigerator at home the other day (lol) One whole shelf is filled with butter.

My recommendation for Paris is grass-fed butter (lol).
For those of you traveling to France on business this winter, these make great souvenirs! You'll find a wider variety and prices than in Japan. If you're concerned about safe ways to bring them back, please feel free to email me, Shibata (lol).

Now, back to the main topic.
Speaking of Paris, a great many Japanese designers participate in exhibitions there. More and more are renting showrooms individually, rather than participating in joint exhibitions. orSlow is one example of this.

Khaki military pants are practically a uniform now! Both I and the store staff wear them so often you might mistake them for one. When you visit the store, be sure to check out what kind of military pants we're wearing. They're a classic combination with a trendy navy blazer, and the fact that they can be worn year-round is another attractive feature.

Authentic Wear offers a wide range of products, from vintage to designer items, but what's particularly noteworthy about Orslow is its excellent cost performance.
I still remember the first conversation I had with designer Nakatsu-san : "Isn't this too cheap for the quality?"

Left: Slim Fit ¥15,984, Right: Vintage Fit ¥15,984

All items are priced under 20,000 yen (excluding tax)! If you prefer a clean silhouette, choose the slim fit; if you want to try something a little wider, choose the vintage fit. A wide range of sizes is available.

They say spring's arrival starts with your bottoms! You should definitely give it a try!
