As times and trends have come and gone, it seems that the things adults truly want—items to care for and use for years, or things that enrich everyday life—tend not to be bought on impulse.

This time, we surveyed the wish lists of staff members who make good use of their shopping lists.

As the summer sales wind down, store shelves are filling up with clothing in autumn hues. But what we really want right now are lightweight pieces we can add to our wardrobe immediately—basic items versatile enough to carry us through to autumn. The keyword for bottoms we want to put to use going forward is "easy & relaxed." While picturing how they might pair with autumn clothing, let's take a detailed look at bottoms that can become wardrobe staples starting right now.

3 Cut-and-Sew Tops from ZUTTO: Understanding Each One's Comfort Through Differences in Fabric and Cut
As the sunlight grows stronger day by day, we find ourselves in that in-between season—too warm for a jacket, yet a little early for full-on summer attire.

Say goodbye to that rainy-day foot frustration. opanak rubber shoes for comfortable, stylish footwear
The sky is overcast from the morning, and it looks like it might rain in the afternoon. On days like this, you'd rather head out in something lighter than a full-on pair of rain boots.

ZUTTO staff member M is one of those people, and this year she seems to have added a pair of Opanak strap shoes to her collection. Here's her report on choosing the right size, adding extra holes to the straps, and how the shoes held up on a rainy day.

A comparison of REN wallets: even with the same shape, how does the impression and the way they age change depending on the material?
REN (Ren) is a Japanese brand that creates bags, wallets, pouches, and other small leather goods from high-quality leather. This time, we're focusing on their wallets in particular. Since REN works with a wide variety of leathers, even wallets of the same design can look quite different depending on the type of leather used.
