01Why I Only Buy Second-Hand Clothes
Hi, everyone. Two years ago, I made a rule for myself: no new clothes. Since then, everything I've bought has been second-hand. Today, I'd like to recommend it to you.
皆さん、こんにちは。2年前、自分にルールを作りました。新しい服は買わないことです。それ以来、買ったものはすべて古着です。今日は、それを皆さんにおすすめしたいと思います。
02Reason 1: It Saves Money
The first reason is money. At thrift shops, I've found jackets for the price of a coffee. I spend much less than before, but I still have plenty to wear.
一つ目の理由は、お金です。古着屋では、コーヒー1杯の値段でジャケットを見つけたこともあります。前よりずっとお金を使っていませんが、着るものは十分にあります。
03Reason 2: My Style Is More Unique
The second reason is style. In second-hand shops, every item is different. My friends often ask where I got my clothes, and nobody at work wears the same shirt as me.
二つ目の理由は、おしゃれです。古着屋では、一つ一つの服が違います。友達によく服をどこで買ったのか聞かれますし、職場で私と同じシャツを着ている人はいません。
04Reason 3: Less Waste
The third reason is waste. When I buy a used shirt, it gets a second life instead of going into the trash. It feels like a small but real way to help.
三つ目の理由は、ごみです。古いシャツを買えば、それはごみ箱に行く代わりに、第二の人生を送れます。小さくても、本当に役に立つ方法だと感じています。
05Where I Shop
I shop in three places: thrift shops, weekend flea markets, and clothes swaps with friends, where we trade things we don't wear anymore.
私は三つの場所で買い物をします。古着屋、週末のフリーマーケット、そして友達との服の交換会です。交換会では、もう着ないものを交換し合います。
06My Tips
Here are my tips. Check each item for stains and small holes, go often because new things arrive every week, and always wash your clothes before you wear them.
私のコツを紹介します。一着ずつ、しみや小さな穴がないかを確かめること、毎週新しいものが入るのでよく通うこと、そして着る前に必ず洗うことです。
07Conclusion
In short, second-hand clothes are cheaper, more unique, and better for the planet. You don't have to go all the way like me. Try buying your next shirt second-hand. Thank you.
つまり、古着は、安くて、個性的で、地球に優しいのです。私のように徹底する必要はありません。次のシャツを古着で買ってみてください。ありがとうございました。
