Staff “Back check!” ~GORI edition~

Hello everyone!
This is GORI from BROTURES Harajuku.

Without further ado, as the title suggests, today's corner will be introducing the bags that our staff members love and their contents! The first thing we will be introducing at our Harajuku store is GORI bags!
I'm going to introduce you to the bag that I use on my daily commute and its contents, so please read till the end.

First of all, let's start with the important background introduction. This is my favorite bag!

INSIDE LINE EQUIPMENT/ILE DEFAULT XL ¥57,200-tax included

My favorite bag is a model called DEFAULT from a brand called INSIDE LINE EQUIPMENT (ILE).
The biggest appeal of the ILE brand is HANDMADE IN . Being CALIFORNIA . Being based in the San Francisco Bay Area, it may have been inevitable for me to encounter handmade bags as I started riding fixie bikes under the influence of videos shot in San Francisco such as MASH and LEADER. ! I didn't mention it, but the fact that each item is handmade really stuck with me.
As the material for the back body, the back surface is made of extremely lightweight and durable material. Since it uses X-PAC , it is lightweight compared to its appearance .

I'm sure some of you have seen clothes and bags with an atmosphere like this at least once! This is a fabric called X-PAC!

The inside of the bag has a waterproof liner that is welded up to the seams, so even in sudden heavy rain, the contents of the bag will not get wet at all.
Although this is just a quote, I will list the features of the bag, so if you are interested, please check it out!

・The outer material uses X-PAC, which is lightweight and highly waterproof. ・A built-in waterproof liner is welded to the seams. ・The bottom uses ballistic nylon, which boasts particularly excellent abrasion resistance. ・YKK waterproof zipper. Highly waterproof roll-top type main compartment - Laptop sleeve compatible with 16-inch MacBook Pro - Detachable chest and waist strap as needed - Resin core material and urethane on the back to improve carrying comfort padded

The bag has a large capacity of 40L , and it is also recommended that it is a size that can be carried on a plane!
All ILE items are sold at BROTURES Harajuku, so if you are interested in any products, please feel free to contact us.

Now that we have introduced the bag, let's introduce the important contents! Lol Let me first say that this blog is going to be extremely long as it is an introduction to the contents of the bag that I am personally particular about. lol


Contents of the bag ①

OAKLEY SUTRO

The first masterpiece I have to introduce is SUTRO, the OAKLEY sunglasses that I love so much!
Sunglasses are a must-have when commuting to work every morning, especially in the bright summer sun. To be honest, the reason I bought it was because I saw overseas riders wearing it and simply admired how cool it was. LOL <br>If you put on this SUTRO, straddle your favorite fixie bike, and go out into town, you too will become the best fixie bike rider.
Of course, they not only look cool, but the wide lens surface has no frame that obstructs your view, so your visibility is much better than other sunglasses. You can drive with a wide field of vision, so if you are looking for sunglasses for piste, we highly recommend them!

Contents of the bag ②

Puncture repair kits & tools

Next up is a puncture repair kit that can be called a must-have item when commuting long distances.
Regarding this, I always have it in my bag, but sometimes I forget to put the tube in and end up putting the cart before the horse. For reference, I'll also write down the contents of the puncture repair kit I carry!
○TOPEAK Air Booster G2
○TOPEAK CO2 cartridge ○IRC tire lever x 2
○15mm wrench, hexagon set ○I always carry a tool that looks like a Buddhist tube on my daily commute! lol


Contents of the bag ③

grooming kit

What is a grooming kit? Some people may think so. That's understandable, because this is what I personally call a good person. lol

As you can see in the photo, my favorite WACKO MARIA and PORTER collaboration drawstring bag comes with retaW perfume that will envelop you with a wonderful scent from the beginning to the end of the day, a hair conditioner to perfectly condition your hair, and your favorite comb. Contains.

(The photo looks like a YouTuber introducing cosmetics)
One of the retaW perfumes that I recommend is a model called EVELYN. After a very refreshing and refreshing smell, A blend of champagne and bergamot gives off a captivating fruit aroma. My routine is to put on this perfume before I start work to get myself fired up.
By the way, the brand retaW is a brand from Tokyo, and there is a store near our BROTURES Harajuku store, so if you are interested, please go check it out! If you feel embarrassed to be alone, let's go together! lol ( women only )

These days, I always carry Aesop hand gel with me. Hand gel is recommended for people who don't have access to clean water or don't like drying their hands after washing!

Contents of the bag ④

Mac Book & PC Case

Next up is a laptop, which is an essential item for work. Even if I don't have this computer, I can still work because I have multiple computers at the store, but as the number of staff has increased, there's been a lot of fighting over computers these days, so I've been bringing them to the store lately.
Although it's a size that fits perfectly in the ILE bag I introduced earlier, I'm a bit worried about not having a PC case, so I'm using a PC case from PORTER , which I also love. This is a PC case that was released a few years ago in collaboration with Neighborhood, a popular apparel brand that is proud of Harajuku .

The design looks like a vintage paisley pattern tied together! Personally, I love paisley patterns, so I get excited every time I bring out my PC.
Needless to say, PORTER is as easy to use as a PC case, so I highly recommend POTER to anyone looking for a PC case.

Contents of the bag ⑤

MECHANIX WEAR×100% gloves

The last item we would like to introduce is gloves, which are essential items when riding a fixie bike!
I wear gloves whenever I ride a piste in spring, summer, fall, or winter. Among the many gloves available, we especially recommend MECHANIX WEAR's original gloves, which are thin and easy to use. The back of the hand is made of mesh material with excellent breathability, and the palm of the hand is made of a sturdy fabric that provides a comfortable grip on the handle.
MECHANIX itself is America's leading work glove, so its toughness is a big plus.

This is also normal This is not a MECHANIX glove, but a collaboration model with 100%, a goggle brand for motorcycle off-road bodies.
These are my favorite gloves, and I was so desperate to get them that I even had to pay customs duties to order them from overseas sites. lol

The palm of my favorite glove spells out " HOW MUCH EFFORT DO YOU GIVE? " The meaning is `` How much effort do you want? '', and when I feel tired from riding a fixie bike, I look at this phrase to motivate myself! lol

As written on the back of my hand, I will continue rowing to give my 100% at all times! lol
Gloves of the same model as mine from MECHANIX are also sold at BROTURES Harajuku, so if you are interested, please contact us again!

Here are the five items I always have in my bag!
When I introduce him like this, I get the impression that he was very particular about his personal belongings. Since it's something you carry every day, I think it's a good idea to live your life with something that's full of your own originality! A new life is about to begin.
Either way, the ILE bag is extremely easy to use and I highly recommend it, and I haven't seen many people use it other than myself, so if you're looking for a bag that you don't want to share with anyone else, it's a good choice. Recommended as a candidate!

It's quite long, but this is the end of my background introduction.
Regarding the background introduction, it is a series, so please wait patiently while thinking about who the next introduction staff will be!

Well then.
