Hello everyone. This is Uematsu, the buyer in charge of Super Men's. The time when the sweet scent of osmanthus flowers filled the air passed by in the blink of an eye, and the autumn leaves, which signal the deepening of autumn, are gradually becoming more noticeable in the Kanto region.

However, with the sudden drop in temperature in the mornings and evenings, and the poor harvest of autumn delicacies like saury and matsutake mushrooms this year, it feels like winter will arrive before we can fully enjoy the autumn season and its delicious food...

Now, in this article, I'd like to introduce some outerwear styling ideas that are perfect for this time of year as winter truly sets in.

Mountain parkas made of a crinkly material that are perfect for even the coldest winter days are typically paired with casual outfits like jeans or chinos. This time, however, I've tried a more modern look by combining them with slacks and a white shirt for a cleaner, more polished style.

This year's top pick for a versatile outer garment suitable for both casual and formal occasions is MACKINTOSH PHILOSOPHY hooded blouson. It boasts many appealing features, such as a sleeved liner that can be worn separately and the lustrous finish unique to Limonta nylon. This is a Mitsukoshi Isetan exclusive item, so if you're interested, please come and see it in store.

Next up is the now-classic Calvin Klein Chester coat. Its simple and minimalist design makes it perfect to wear with a suit!

But if you deliberately pair a Chesterfield coat with casual items, it actually creates a very sophisticated look, instantly elevating your everyday weekend style.

Instead of a typical casual denim and sweatshirt, try pairing it with a Chesterfield coat—one of the most formal coat styles—for a classic casual look. Breaking free from preconceived notions and mixing dressy and casual elements might just lead you to discover a fresh, new you!

Next, as is customary, we'll introduce some restaurants located near Shinjuku.

In response to requests for recommendations for places near Shinjuku Station, this time we'd like to introduce "36.5℃ Kitchen," a bistro located in Yoyogi-Uehara, just one stop (5 minutes) away from Shinjuku Station on the Odakyu Line express train.

The handsome chef's home-cooked meals, made with fresh ingredients, are one of my favorites! I've taken friends there many times, and I'm confident they've always enjoyed it (lol). My personal recommendation is the "Risotto with Hokkaido Kombu Seaweed and Fruit Tomatoes." If you live along the Odakyu Line, be sure to stop by after shopping at Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building !
