Giving a T-shirt I made myself to a tennis player I admire
Celeina：Mr.MARCO, do you have a favorite professional tennis player?
MARCO：Yes. He is Nick Kyrgios, the only player in tennis sponsored by the Jordan brand. Tennis is a sacred sport, so there is a dress code that says you must enter the court in all-white clothing for a match, but Kyrios is a heretic who paid a fine by appearing wearing a red Jordan cap (haha). That slightly tame style is also cool.
Takano: Have you met him before?
MARCO: Yes, I have. When he was in Japan for a game, I saw him playing in Harajuku on Instagram Stories, and my partner and I said, “I think he’s here now, right? Isn’t he usually around here?” And he was there. So we took a picture with him and gave him a T-shirt we made with Kyrgios as the story. He was like, “Why is this guy making my boot without my permission?”. We were like, “Sorry!”
Celeina：But I have a feeling that Kyrgios will take it in stride. Now, “FIST BUMP” is a circle of friends connected by goo touch around, so we are asking you to introduce us to your friends. What kind of people would you like to introduce?
MARCO：This is a professional BMX racer named Asuma Nakai, who is aiming to compete in the next Olympics.
Celeina：How did you become friends?
MARCO：We first met at a CHROME brand exhibition. We were both from the same hometown, as we were fellow riders we connected in various ways and became good friends.
Takano: In a word, what kind of person are you?
MARCO：A solitary fighter.
Takano: I’m curious. Tomorrow, I will connect you to professional BMX racer Asuma Nakai.
Celeina： “FIST BUMP”, today we welcomed Mr.MARCO, the representative of the creative label “MANNERS KNOWS”. Thank you very much.
