We spoke with Kunii to delve into the reasons for his involvement in the project and the concept of 'Herringbone Footwear'.

The Toranomon Hills Station Tower, a new attraction in Tokyo, covers a large floor space of about 800 square meters across the second and third floors. It opened on February 29 with the theme of enjoying a rich lifestyle. 'Herringbone Footwear' is featured as a footwear specialty store within it. Kunii shares the backstory of accepting the role of external director.
"First, I heard about the large-scale urban development centered around Toranomon before the outbreak of the coronavirus, the construction of a building directly connected to Toranomon Hills Station (Station Tower), and the new project that BAYCREW'S had been planning under wraps. The so-called 'BAYCREW'S stores' had already been launched in regional cities such as Sendai, Nagoya, and Fukuoka.
