This is the frost of 2023.
This is Sakemaru.
Just the other day, you were saying "It's so hot I feel like I'm going to die"...
It's already quite cold in the mornings and evenings.
Truly frosty.
Moisture in the air freezes and forms frost.
Now that I'm a farmer, I have to be careful.
That is to say... 
Radishes, a classic autumn/winter vegetable, have sprouted!
This photo was taken a few days ago
After this, we thinned out the vegetables (which we enjoyed in a salad),
I left more space between the plants.
This vegetable is frost-resistant, but...
I have to be careful because I had a bad experience during last year's coldest period.
Now, before the winter arrives...
This year, we'd like to introduce our recommended jackets.
It's been five years since I started making this jacket.
Double-breasted wool work jacket "Young Vito"! 
This photo is a scene from the movie "The Godfather Part II."
The lead role of Vito is played by Robert De Niro.
It is a reproduction of the wool jacket he is wearing at this time!
This year, this style is designed using brown nepped wool herringbone.
"Young Vito" double-breasted colored napped wool work jacket. 
The colors are pretty similar to the photo from the movie above, aren't they?
First, the color in front, brown. 
First, let me explain this jacket again.
The film is set in New York in 1919.
After World War I, the East Coast of the United States
It was thronged with immigrants from Europe.
Many Europeans fled the ravages of war and headed for the new world of the Americas.
One of them was his childhood godfather, Vito.
However, when Vito was still a child,
I couldn't hear the question "What's your name?" asked at the Immigration Bureau.
Thinking he was asking where he was from, he replied, "Corleone (village)."
And his passport reads "Vito Corleone"...
After that, they were in a position to take in immigrants from Corleone Village.
He becomes someone known as the Godfather.
"Young Vito" has grown from a child to a young man.
They also get involved in illegal businesses.
At that time, I was working with
Peter Clemenza, on the left in the first photo.
It will become your lifelong companion.
The jacket he was wearing when he started this illegal business was
This is a double-breasted wool work jacket.
The design is not American,
Euro-style wool jacket.
The area where Vito probably lived was
It's a Little Italy-like area where a lot of Italians live.
There were probably also tailors run by Italian immigrants.
If that's the case, it's no surprise that it was a design that was popular in Italy. 
The differences between the two colours of fabric I found this time are as follows: 
The herringbone weave background color is
The only difference is black or grey.
The color nep is beautifully woven in,
The material has a warm, wintery feel. 
Young Vito with his sharp eyes.
This jacket has no neps and is not herringbone woven.
If you were a 21st century young Vito,
I might have been wearing something made by Dry Bones this year.
