Get in the stink of the Tokyo arcade. 2 suits for ¥40,000. Made in China but made for Japan. They’ll last.

A synthetic mix that keeps them light and hardwearing. They hang well despite no lining on the back. For the summer months. A thick vest will take the same one through winter.

Dryclean once a year. When Cool Biz ends and jackets and ties go back on and you realise they’re not fresh. Then get them back in the stink.

All at the screens. All the same suit; all the same stink. All in it together.
