Everyday Summer Wear for Local Escapes
8.15｜August Fifteenth

Founded in New York in 2007 by a Japanese designer, the brand 'August Fifteenth' embodies the concept of 'unobtrusive, intelligent, and indispensable clothing.' Its aesthetic is rooted in the warm, captured essence of New York City.

The beauty of clothing that has become one with its wearer, like well-worn coats or pants bearing paint splatters from window display artists—clothing that resembles cherished furniture or tools. To achieve this ultimate style, designs are intentionally minimalist, crafted to become personal vintage pieces that one can't bear to part with, perhaps even too precious to pass down to a son.



The theme for the brand's Spring/Summer collection is “Summer is not specia.” It evokes leisurely activities like taking a ferry ride nearby, enjoying an evening picnic, dressing up to listen to the blues, or revisiting old math problems.—It conveys the meaning of spending summer locally without pretense.

At JOURNAL STANDARD TRISECT, we've collaborated on beach shorts that can be worn as a set with the jacket. We aimed for a style that perfectly balances New York's vintage feel with current trends. As the store's buyer noted, 'August Fifteenth can express the deeper aspects of America,' and indeed, all items are simple yet profoundly flavorful. Those who appreciate American casual wear will undoubtedly connect with this sensibility.
