KOOKY ZOO
Hello!
Mo.store.okinawa
This is Takaesu.
It's hot in Okinawa. The port of Chatan has a nice summery feel with the smell of the sea.
Well, this time I'd like to talk about my favorite brand, Cookie Zoo.
Another great brand has come to Okinawa!!
This is a brand that will impress anyone who loves second-hand and vintage clothing.
Please take a look.
Yusuke Suzuki, the designer, is active as a designer for a certain denim brand, and then launched KOOKY ZOO in 2021.
"GARMENT FOR ECCENTRIC" The motto is to create unique and eccentric clothing by adding (or subtracting) various arrangements to American vintage wear.
He is knowledgeable about not only denim but also vintage clothing.
Since I was a child, I have loved American vintage clothing, toys, and miscellaneous goods, so I wondered if I could do something based on American second-hand clothing.
When I was looking at vintage children's clothes, I thought it would be interesting to make them in adult sizes. That's how the brand took shape and is today.
I saw Cookie Zoo at a certain select shop.
It was a shock.
When I looked into it, I found out that it was vintage children's clothing resized to adult sizes.
In simple terms, It's like shining a light that makes Doraemon grow on vintage clothes . It's a great idea.
The buttons are big, the rivets are big, and the pockets are big.
Also, if you look closely, you can see that the thread is thick. Is this even possible?
To be honest, it was an almost perverse level of attention to detail.
Needless to say, the silhouette is rounded like children's clothing, and the length is short and unbalanced, making it a design that allows children to move around easily.
And when I put it on, I was enveloped in a mysterious atmosphere.
"Cute," an expression that men rarely use, came out of his mouth.
Many brands are making clothes inspired by vintage items, but the word "cute" never came up. There were many masculine clothes.
But Cookie Zoo is completely different. It's cool and cute at the same time.
I really liked this because I prefer simple, clean clothes over earthy ones.
This is why I chose this brand.
Looking back at the photo albums from my parents' house, I remember wearing T-shirts and jeans from when I was a child that I don't know where they came from. If I were to bring those back now, and still be able to wear them as an adult, it would be even cooler and cuter.
These clothes bring back memories of those nostalgia and excitement. I think when you try them on, you'll realize how cool and cute they are.
I meet the designer, Suzuki-san, at every exhibition and am always amazed.
They create things that you can't get in the vintage world, and the details are just as good or even better.
These products will be available in the future, so please look forward to them.
Also, he has a lot of knowledge about vintage clothing, so it's quite valuable and interesting to hear about the clothes he models.
I feel I need to share this knowledge with everyone, so please come and listen.
These mysterious clothes can be found in Okinawa.
Please take a look.
