Here's a weird one, guys. We covered nonnative S/S 15 back in November, but now, and this is assuming I'm not completely missing something here, the Japanese brand just dropped another collection. You'd figure it would be F/W 15, right? Wrong. Seriously, look at the website. It's just straight up Summer 2015. I haven't really seen anything like this because most men's brands, especially smaller ones, don't bother with the in-betweeners like women's do with pre-fall or resort. Nonetheless, welcome to Summer 15. It's pretty much all new shit too. There isn't any obvious overlap with the S/S 15 collection. I mean, is it too much of a good thing? I don't think so because this shit is pretty fantastic. There's a whole lot of linen popovers, which are pretty much the perfect summer garm. Just super breezy with that open weave, letting that wild patch of chest hair flow with freedom as you drink a Corona or two around a bonfire on the beach. I'm trying to cancel all summer responsibilities and just ruminate over existence while on a beach that slopes uphill slightly, Corona in hand, as the sun rises or sets. Take your pick. It depends on your mood of the day really. I find that sunset introspection happens when things are going really well, while sunrise sessions happens more when you're on an aggressive downward life spiral. But, hey, different strokes.
