POPEYE magazine is the “Magazine for City Boys”.

(JAPANESE LANGUAGE ONLY)

The founders printed this on the cover of the magazine when it debuted in 1976. What’s a “city boy”? The term doesn’t appear in the dictionary and no expert panel could define it. So we felt we should explore every aspect of what this “city boy” might be. After decades of debate, it still makes for a topic of lively discussion. It can be a style or a way of thinking. To get an idea of what makes a city boy, read POPEYE magazine.  

Popeye – Issue 930: Our Cheap Chic 2024

"This book is about the style of clothing that you create for yourself."

As authors Catherine and Carol write at the beginning of "Cheap Chic," "cheap chic" doesn't just mean expensive or cheap.

Simple and functional work, military, and outdoor wear are strong allies.

Even if it's expensive, high-quality, well-made items will surely not leave you regretting it 10 years from now.

Yes, it's about how to wisely put together your wardrobe without wasting money or time.

Furthermore, it even goes so far as to say that autonomy and a healthy body that are not swayed by fashion are important prerequisites for enjoying a cheap chic life.

This is still relevant in 2024, and it seems even more real.

POPEYE came up with this feature as an updated version of this timeless classic.
We'll take a closer look with 30 "cheap chic lovers" that POPEYE trusts.
Following the example of "Cheap Chic," the feature starts with "Basics: Something Very Important."
Let's start by talking about the T-shirts, shirts, and pants that the 30 people love as staples.
