Winter is approaching… and every fan of Japanese denim wants to find a practical and comfortable wardrobe for this time of the year.
Of course, all over the world there are different climatic conditions and winter passes by with different temperatures. As a consequence, there are different requirements for clothing.
(In this article, we will focus on more the cold winter of the northern hemisphere 🙂
