Want to enjoy inspiring fashion both in your urban life and during your nature experience?
By summer 2020, we are opening three different types of new stores that fully embodies the worldview of our brand, and wander.
This series consists of three articles, which introduces each of our three new stores. The second article will be on “and wander OUTDOOR GALLERY with PAPERSKY” that is now open at our first base of operation.

Bringing new perspectives to your everyday life:
and wander’s “and wander OUTDOOR GALLERY with PAPERSKY” is now open at MT. and wander!

“MT. and wander”, located in Motoyoyogi-cho, Tokyo, is and wander’s first company-owned store. On the 3rd and 4th floor of the store, and wander has opened a new gallery space called “and wander OUTDOOR GALLERY with PAPERSKY” in collaboration with PAPERSKY, a Japanese travel and lifestyle magazine. It is a unique and exciting gallery space for mountain and travel lovers as well as people who are enamored with nature, or anyone who enjoys small surprises and discoveries within their daily lives.

実はこの場所、知る人ぞ知るand wander創業の地。元オフィスをリノベーションして、and wanderの商品だけではなくアウトドアにまつわる本や道具を扱い、アーティストの企画展示を行えるようなカルチャー発信地にしたい、という計画は昨年からあったといいます。
そして、お店に来た人が新しい発見ができるようなゆっくりできる空間をつくろうと、創業当初からアートディレクションを手掛ける「BOOTLEG」尾原史和さん、『PAPERSKY』編集長ルーカスB.B.とバルコ香織さん、内装は「SOUP DESIGN」土井伸朗さんとともにアイディアを出し合いながら、ギャラリー計画が進みました。

In fact, this place is exactly where the and wander brand was born. The former office of the brand has been renovated and transformed into an exhibition space for various outdoor gadgets, books and magazines, not to mention the array of and wander items. And what’s more, “and wander OUTDOOR GALLERY with PAPERSKY” will feature artists from different genres regularly. And wander has been working on this project since last year and aims to make this gallery the epicenter of culture.
Its main concept is to provide a relaxing atmosphere so that the visitors can discover something new in the gallery. With the help of Fumikazu Ohara, the art director since beginning of the and wander, Lucas B.B., the editor of PAPERSKY, and Kaori Berkow, and Nobuaki Doi, the interior designer, the gallery was able to officially open its doors this June.

3階では、セレクトしたアウトドア関連の本や『PAPERSKY』のオリジナルグッズ、各国で探してきた1点もののヴィンテージのアウトドアアイテム、アーカイブ商品などをはじめ、「and wander OUTDOOR GALLERY with PAPERSKY」の限定商品も販売。
高揚感が湧き上がってくるのは、商品を陳列する中央の空間が、いわゆる什器と人の関係性ではなく、座ったり人が通ったりできる「ジャングルジムのようなイメージ」でつくられているから。ひと休みするために設けられた自転車のサドルは、BROOKSの自転車を愛するルーカスならではのアイデア。そして、映画館で使われていたベンチには、シュラフマットを敷いて快適さがプラスされていたり、背負子やトレッキングポール、クライミングロープといったアウトドアギアもインテリアのユニークなアクセントになっています。

On the 3rd floor, there is a selection of outdoor related books and magazines, uniquely crafted PAPERSKY goods, hand selected one-of-a-kind vintage outdoor items from all over the globe, archival fashion items and some exclusive products only available at “and wander OUTDOOR GALLERY with PAPERSKY”.
Visitors will experience a sense of excitement the moment they enter the center space of the floor. Created from “an image of a jungle gym”, the space not only displays various daily goods, but also allows the visitors to sit and rest as well as just simply walking around, providing an experience rather than just consumption. The idea to arrange bicycle seats for the visitors who wants to take a quick rest was actually suggested by Lucas, who is a big fan of Brooks saddles. For the bench, which was previously used at a movie theater, a sleeping pad is placed on the seat for improved comfort. Also, various outdoor items displayed in the space including pack frames, trekking poles, and climbing ropes, give a unique and creative accent to the space.

そして、階段を昇った4階は、シーズンごとに表情を変えるギャラリースペース。こけら落としはイラストレーター・ジェリー鵜飼さんによる風景作品の展示。「Tokyo Tree Trek」（樹木をつないで東京を歩くこと）により見えてきた、太古の面影を残す東京の景色が印象的な展示となりました。

If you take the stairs up to the 4th floor, you will see a seasonal gallery space. The very first exhibition held at the gallery featured the works of a famous Japanese illustrator, Jerry Ukai. His works displayed at the exhibition focused on the landscape of Tokyo, based on what he saw, felt, and learned through “Tokyo Tree Trek” (taking a walk in Tokyo and visiting different areas with trees). Jerry Ukai’s impressive exhibition well highlighted the remnants of the ancient past in the modern city of Tokyo.

現在は、山を愛する作家のみなさんとともに、「みんなで、山思うプロジェクト」を開催中。企画の発端は、新型コロナウイルスの感染拡大の影響で、登山客が例年より減少したこと。今年はクローズを決めた山小屋もあるそうです。そこで、山の自然保護はもとより、登山の文化を守り続けてくれる山小屋を支援するために、and wander発案のもとに集った作家さんの作品を展示＆販売。その売上をプロジェクトに参加する山小屋に支援金として送る企画展を考えました。

ここは、訪れる⼈々とともに新たな⽂化を⽣んでゆく現在進⾏形のギャラリーです。今後はワークショップやトークショーなども計画しています。知識を得たり価値観に気づいたり、新しい視点を広げてくれる場に、ぜひ足を運んでください。

The gallery is now hosting “We’re Always Thinking about the Mountain Project”, which focuses on presenting the works of artists who love the mountains. This project was launched in response to the significant drop in the number of climbers this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, some mountain huts have even decided to keep their facilities closed throughout the year. Considering this situation, and wander decided to sponsor this project to support these huts that have dedicated to maintaining the culture of mountaineering, not to mention the conservation of nature. The artists’ works will be displayed and sold in the gallery during the event and all profits from this project will be donated to the participating huts.

“and wander OUTDOOR GALLERY with PAPERSKY” is a “live” gallery where new cultures emerge as the visitors come and experience the place. Workshops and live talks are planned for the upcoming events. If you’re interested in gaining new knowledge, value, or broadening your view, please feel free to visit and wander’s “and wander OUTDOOR GALLERY with PAPERSKY”!
