The Great Snow of the 24 solar terms falls on December 7th.
This is Sakemaru.
It's gotten cold all of a sudden.
Or rather, it has probably been too warm so far this year.
The Japan Meteorological Agency announced that the average temperatures for this fall (September to November 2022) are:
+0.9 degrees above the reference value.
This is the highest figure since statistics began in 1898.
This year, I am significantly behind on planting my autumn and winter vegetables...
We switched the fields from summer vegetables to autumn/winter vegetables in late October (too late).
nevertheless,
The cauliflower is already growing.
It's my favorite vegetable so I'm super happy!
The Chinese cabbage and radishes grew too quickly because of the warm weather.
He became a victim of the locusts.
The harvest is quite tough (tears).
The warm autumn is also a problem.
It's finally getting really cold,
It's about time you start wanting some heavy armor.
And at the right time,
Clutch Magazine,
I was contacted by someone wanting to do an interview about "USNAVY."
So we picked out some vintage items at the warehouse and then met up at the head office.
We immediately began shooting the Super Vintage one after another.
First up is the M-69 zipper version from 1941-43 .
A long coat type made of goat skin.
The double meeting was deep,
Ultra cool.
Next is 1943-45.
M-69 button-up version.
A goatskin version of a very long peacoat.
It's like that.
The lining is also crimson,
It truly has the air of an "admiral of the sea."
and…
M-1943 deck jacket and deck overalls.
The hook that these two items have in common is amazing!
The hook that is only used for this item is
A masterpiece that embodies the depth of the USNAVY.
that's why,
Dry Bones has reissued this song with some adjustments.
First up is the M-1943 deck jacket .
It uses the same hook and has a reflective print on the center back.
A close-up (hard to tell: haha)
Close-up of the hook.
This oval eyelet is also
A valuable part that is only used for this item.
And the bottoms are deck overalls .
The liner is the same as the jacket.
Thick wool melton.
This bottom,
Actually, I bought these as bottoms for winter touring...
When I went to the toilet,
I have to take everything off, it's hard work: Sweating profusely
Although it is an excellent cold weather garment,
It's a shame that he can't make it in the motorcycle scene.
So, we added a zipper to the front up to the crotch,
Eliminates the inconvenience of using the toilet.
It's so convenient I can't let it go!
And one more thing, we'd like to introduce you to complete cold weather clothing .
We're already running out of sizes for the N-1 jacket !
Recently, in addition to olive drab...
Navy is also available.
Vintage items tend to wear out easily,
I covered it in washable leather.
In the case of vintage,
They are often worn down due to salt damage...
If it's too worn out it looks ugly (sweat)
So I'm glad that area is clean.
By the way, my vintage items are in the middle of moving.
N-1 was not found (tears)
So, as an apology,
Let me introduce you to a coat that is like the boss of N-1.
The model number is unknown, but the coat I wore reached about knee length.
The outer and inner lining are the same as the N-1.
And with a parka.
I wonder how cold it is designed to be used in (perhaps the Southern Ocean?)
And the thin (spring/summer) vintage ones,
I took a picture of it.
First up, the M-421A type jacket .
In fact, this jacket
There are two completely different models with the same product number (same as the M-69 introduced earlier).
The points I have already mentioned are also interesting aspects of the USNAVY.
And this up and down too.
USNN-3 type utility jacket,
Also utility trousers.
Herringbone twill naval workwear.
Classic and lovely.
and more than anything,
These three items are scheduled to be released in spring/summer 2023.
Everyone, please look forward to it!
see you!
