Mallory Jacket, Peacoat, Skyliner: Winter's All-Star Items!

The 5th floor of Matsuya Ginza offers a comprehensive selection of men's fashion, from premium and casual brands to shoes, bags, and accessories. "Women tend to browse more, but men usually come with a specific purpose," Yamamoto observes. "They know what they like, have extensive product knowledge, and strong opinions. I enjoy learning from them when they teach me things I don't know." She finds Nigel Cabourn's clear themes and its distinct approach to garment construction, which differs from womenswear, to be particularly captivating.

For today's outfit, she chose the reversible heavy flannel shirt, available in five colors. "It's made from a thick, brushed flannel that feels incredibly soft and warm against the skin. It's reversible, with a check pattern on one side and stripes on the other. The popular check pattern works well with down vests, and its versatility for layering, whether worn tucked in or out, is a key feature. We've paid close attention to the stitching, so please take a look. It's our bestseller this season, appealing to a wide range of customers from their 30s to 60s."

She selected the red color today, saying, "It's the most vibrant, isn't it? I also love how it pairs with beige trousers." Among Nigel Cabourn's items, she recommends the Mallory jacket, which now comes in new colors. Its ability to be styled with various bottoms like denim, chinos, or cargo pants, offering a sophisticated look, is highly praised.



"For outerwear that will be useful as the weather cools, I also recommend the classic military peacoat, available in navy, black, and orange. This season, wearing it to show off the check pattern of a shirt underneath, paired with Nigel's wide-leg chinos, creates a fresh, balanced look. Additionally, the Skyliner, a collaboration with Eddie Bauer that's generated buzz, builds upon the original design with added coyote fur, a hood, and leather details. The fur is detachable, allowing for a change in style."

Yamamoto finds men like Shota Matsuda and Eita appealing. "They give off an impression of being clean-cut and dressing with a smart, fashionable sense. They seem like pleasant men to be around."

"The 5th floor at Matsuya Ginza primarily features dressier items like suits, but we see many couples here. Stylish women often recommend Nigel's clothing to their partners. Once they try something on, they can truly appreciate the quality and craftsmanship. The reversible heavy flannel shirt, in particular, is something I'd love to see couples wear together."
