Echigo: "My Top 4 Gift Ideas for Men in Their 20s and 30s"

I fell in love with these sneakers because of their unique color scheme.

"I'm sure anyone would be thrilled to receive this! The item I chose from that perspective is the collaboration sneakers between eYe JUNYA WATANABE MAN and new balance . new balance 574, a classic model, was originally designed with off-road running in mind, so it's comfortable to wear for long periods without getting tired. And the limited-edition color scheme for this collaboration is so pop and cute, isn't it? Because it's a classic model, the unique color scheme makes it a real eye-catcher. If it were me, I'd pair it with a traditional, workwear-inspired jacket and cargo pants for a rugged look."

Eyewear you'll want to wear all the time, just like earphones.

"These sunglasses and leather case are from BLANC , an eyewear brand designed by Mr. Watanabe , who comes from a fashion brand background. The more I learn about the fascinating world of eyewear, the more I become interested in it, and now I own nearly 10 pairs of sunglasses from various brands. I like classic-shaped glasses, but I always thought it was difficult to style them in a modern way, and that's when I came across this style. While retaining the base of classic sunglasses, the lenses are slightly larger and not too close together. I think it's a design that anyone can easily wear. The flap case has a soft pigskin suede lining, so the glasses won't get scratched even if you store them directly inside, and the ring carabiner and strap can be attached to the handle of a bag or hung on a belt loop."

My favorite tank top, even in the dead of winter.

"In Japan, sunglasses and tank tops are generally considered summer-only items, but I, someone who loves wearing tank tops even in the dead of winter, recommend N.HOOLYWOOD UNDER SUMMIT WEAR, which N.HOOLYWOOD develops as 'underwear that can be worn as the bare minimum of outerwear.' The relaxed-fitting crew neck long-sleeve top, the minimalist buttonless short cardigan, and the oversized tank top are all basic items for men. The timeless design and materials that can be worn regardless of age are truly essential, and high-quality basic items really lift your spirits. N.HOOLYWOOD UNDER SUMMIT WEAR also comes with a special original box, making it perfect as a gift."

I fell in love with its hotel-like design at first sight. (Bluetooth speaker)

"Lately, I've been into upgrading my home audio system and interior design, and I fell in love at first sight with this Bluetooth speaker from Geneva of Switzerland, which features wireless charging and an analog clock. Beyond its functionality, shape, and design, the combination of the industrial feel of the aluminum, the classic design of the analog clock, and the leather materials creates a mid-century modern aesthetic that's incredibly cool. I want to place it next to my PC to charge my phone while listening to my favorite black music, which I've loved since childhood. With this design, it would even look hotel-like on my bedside table, and I think it would lift my spirits every day."

Try it and be amazed: a hair care series

"This is the Oi series from Davines, famous for its hair oils. One day, a customer came in looking for hair care products, and before recommending anything, I tried the hair butter on my own hair, which was damaged and coarse from repeated perms and bleaching. I was amazed! Since then, I've been hooked on the Oi series, and I use the rich, thick hair butter as a special treatment every 3-4 days. The shampoo and conditioner are also great to share with family or a partner!"

High-quality knitwear

"My first encounter with SUNSPEL was shortly after joining the company, when I was in charge of underwear. I still remember being shocked by their high-quality T-shirts and boxer shorts with their glossy finish and smooth texture. The turtlenecks are knitted using a full-fashion knitting machine, a high-gauge knitting machine, so the stitches are fine and the surface is very beautiful. The lambswool crewneck sweaters are knitted by a Scottish knit manufacturer that specializes in circular knitting (whole garment) and are made of the finest wool, offering a texture that is comparable to cashmere products. These versatile sweaters are essential for winter styling and can be worn with any outfit. This year, I recommend gentle, natural colors. Giving a sweater as a gift is also a wonderful way to express the wish that the recipient will stay warm and stylish."

Loungewear with an irresistible comfort

"I found Fil Melange 's crewneck sweatshirt "CAGE" in the men's underwear section on the first basement floor Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building while searching for something a customer had requested. Among the many simple and subdued colors of relaxing wear, this vibrant purple stood out and called out to me. It uses recycled cotton and extra-long staple cotton, and I love how it has a beautiful look while maintaining a vintage feel. There is a wide variety of colors to choose from, so I think you'll find one you like. And the HAAG pants, made with Smile Cotton, are so soft and fluffy that you'll be hooked after just one wear. They are so comfortable you'll want to wear them all day long. The Rumor blanket is large enough to wrap around your body and doesn't lose its shape easily, so it seems like it would be useful in outdoor settings as well."

Accessories that will appeal to fashion lovers.

" PORTER CLASSIC , located on the 8th floor Isetan Shinjuku Store, Men's Building has many enthusiastic fans. I even have a friend who loves PORTER CLASSIC so much that she chose it for her wedding ring. These rings and bangles, adorned with needles, are inspired by the needles that seamstresses use as their work tools, and as someone involved in fashion, I found them incredibly appealing. The scarves, designed with paintbrushes, are also attractive because they are large silk scarves that are also reasonably priced. Even in winter, you can stylishly keep your neck warm with a scarf without the bulkiness of a muffler."
