From Roppongi, Cars Are Great Toys

The car lifestyle media shop, LE GARAGE, gathers items from around the world that enrich car life and make life more enjoyable, all selected with a unique perspective. The shop is located on the first floor of the AXIS Building in Roppongi, Tokyo, so many of you may have seen the car displays inside.

Here, you'll find items that enhance a car-centric lifestyle, including genuine racing goods used in the demanding world of motorsports, meticulously crafted cleaning supplies, tools, car accessories, specialized books, and antiques. This time, we introduce the latest special items.

The "NARDI Calf Leather Driving Shoes" are special driving shoes born from a collaboration between the prestigious Italian brand NARDI, synonymous with steering wheels, and a long-established Italian shoe manufacturer. The upper is made of smooth leather, also used in the brand's steering wheels. The sole is designed for all-around use, offering flexibility for both driving and town wear, with a moderate thickness.

Daga iPhone 5/5S Case

The "Daga iPhone 5/5S Case" is a new genre of metal iPhone case that goes beyond simply protecting your iPhone from shocks and scratches, focusing entirely on ease of grip and usability.

This limited production item is precision-machined by skilled metalworkers from highly durable stainless steel, offering an exceptional grip when your little finger is passed through the Flip Belt.

Additionally, the PLANEX COLLECTION "JPS & HESKETH Attache Case" is an aluminum attaché case in either the John Player Special specification, which became synonymous with Lotus itself since becoming its main sponsor in 1972, or the Hesketh Racing specification featuring an illustration of the popular "Hesketh Bear" mascot, created by Lord Hesketh in 1973. It is perfectly sized to fit a 13-inch MacBook.
