Ryosuke Nagaoka, a musician who has been active in a wide range of activities, such as producing and providing music, in addition to his activities as a guitarist. A shop cruise on the select shop "EYETHINK", which specializes in eyewear, which is private and has a connection. EYETHINK, which proposes glasses as a fashion accessory, is a shop that breaks away from the idea of "wearing glasses because they have poor eyesight" and makes them want to wear glasses to enjoy their own style more.

Proposed as a fashion item
A select shop specializing in eyewear
"EYETHINK" is a select shop specializing in eyewear that proposes items that can be the standard in the future while sensitively catching the atmosphere of the times. Based on the keywords of timeless, ageless, and genderless, the store has a wide variety of eyewear as fashion selected from 50 to 60 brands in Japan and overseas with their own senses. The contemporary, solid Shibuya PARCO store, which has been cut off, looks like a spacious art gallery. Specialists with advanced eye inspection skills and optical knowledge are enrolled, and as well as basic services for safety and security such as visual inspection and adjustment, aftercare, as well as proposals and advice for glasses that match your own style linked to fashion.
SAVIRLOW (scheduled to be released on February 29) ¥115,500
Pay attention to the EYETHINK exclusive exclusive model
How to enjoy "My Basic"
Ryosuke Nagaoka picks up CELINE's thick rim glasses with a presence of the same color as a shirt. It is a rare limited model that only EYETHINK can handle in Japan. In addition, the silver frame is the long-established eyewear brand CUTLER AND GROSS that represents U.K. This is also an item limited to EYETHINK in Japan.
"It was quite early that my eyes became bad, and I guess it was about 6th grade in elementary school. From there, with glasses. I think you probably have about 30 glasses now. I value it because I chose it hard for myself and have attachment. If you adjust the height of your nose, change the lens, and take care of it properly, the frame will be usable all the time," says Nagaoka.
Since last year, the trend of eyewear has been a horizontal silhouette. It has been updated to the current mood by adding modern elements such as the Cat's Eye Shape with slightly raised eyes to the elements of the late 90s and 2000s that are a little nostalgic. If you hang it on a simple outfit like Nagaoka-san as a point, it looks very stylish.

Comfortable snuggle up and make yourself a special being
Eyeware to update
During the interview, Mr. Nagaoka showed us two beautiful eyewear that he valued.
"The first one is vintage eyewear from the 1940s. This was what I met when I was looking for a frame with a solid cell design, and I bought it because of the grayish blue color.
Today, MYKITA's dead stock glasses, which are also worn privately, were purchased when EYETHINK opened in Shibuya PARCO. Since then, I have been using it carefully. Shibuya PARCO was renewed in 2019, and I feel that it has revived wonderfully. Parco that I had when I was a child is very fashionable anyway. When it's new, "Oh, there's a feeling of PARCO!" I thought it. During this time, I also did the 50th anniversary anniversary commemorative LIVE, and that was also very good. I think it would be nice to have such a place in Shibuya. I also want to do live here in Shibuya PARCO."

Physical strength and intelligence that can be nurtured by taking a detour.
We will continue to value “sensibilities to notice” in the future.
"I'll never change my desire to discover my favorite music and make good things. I hope the world will become a little calmer. I can't find words that convey well, but do you want them to be realism? Now it's full of virtual things. But clothes and eyewear are completely different. As it is today, designers who really think are fused with craftsmanship to make something wonderful——when they wear it, they know their excellence. I can't understand it unless I actually touch it. In that way, I think it would be better to have a sense of sensibility. I hope it will be such a world that takes care of experiencing it. Petrols is going to tour from this spring, and the tour title is "detour". It means "a detour." I want to value the process, not the shortest distance. There is something that can be seen by going a little bit. I gain strength, physical strength, and intelligence. I think it would be useful to life even if I go there in a fun and hurry."
