Although the weather here has been on a strict t-shirt-only agenda, a recent excursion to one of my favorite outdoor gear stores in Setagaya had reminded me of what’s coming next: the return of the fleece.
In today’s letter:

NEW FROM THISISNEVERTHAT
I love a good full-zip fleece, but the quarter snaps have a special place in my heart. I find that the way the collar ends up opening up feels and looks more natural without having to constantly needing to adjust it. It’s a minor detail that effortlessly levels up how your layers come through in an outfit.
Anyway, thisisneverthat has a line-up of quarter snap zips for only $120 right now on their site that have really piqued my interest. I mean, what else do I need to tell you about this? They also have these very awesome high pile fleece vests that are going to make a super underlayer.
At the time of writing this, thisisneverthat posted new info regarding a set of Weather Gear fleeces that are dropping online on October 23rd. You’ve been warned.
THE GREATEST STORE FOR FLEECES IN TOKYO
