JAPANize me!

Japanese fashion never fails to amaze if not shock me! I admire their bold and brave choices. In my opinion, Japan has already set the standard of men's fashion long before i started matching my belt with my shoes. This guy is Kasuke. He describes his fashion as vintage. I'd like to call his whole apparel as "modern nerd samurai". Notice the Hakama looking pants! I can almost see him pulling out a sharp samurai sword. But instead he arms himself with a leather man bag. I sure am not brave enough to pull out a look like this. But to a Japanese guy who hangs around the famous Harajuku district of Tokyo, it's as easy as pulling a white tee and your favorite denim. And by the way if you are wondering, this is a spring look.
Moshi-Moshi from JAPAN!
