October 31st is the 49th House of Representatives general election.
The COVID-19 pandemic, which became clear last year, has brought significant changes to our daily lives.
At the same time, I believe it has allowed us to reaffirm that we cannot survive without a healthy planet and a society built upon it.
In order to improve our lives from here on out, and to pass them on to the next generation; and to live alongside the things that each of us finds important, now is the time to take action—our right to "choose"—rather than doing nothing.
Let's go vote on October 31st.
Get 10% off your in-store purchase when you bring your proof of voting!

*Valid for in-store purchases only.
Bring your proof of voting (early voting is also accepted) to receive 10% off your in-store purchase.
*Some exclusions apply. Please note that this does not apply to items held or reserved in advance.
From tomorrow, Tuesday, October 26th, until voting day on the 31st (Sun), you will receive 10% off your purchase at the Circles shop when you show your proof of voting. This, of course, also applies to those who have already cast an early vote.
Furthermore, PATAGONIA, which carries out fantastic initiatives every year, is also emphasizing the importance of voting through their VOTE OUR PLANET campaign, so that we may continue to live alongside the nature where we live and play. For those who support their cause, we are distributing stickers at our shop, so please feel free to ask our staff when you make a purchase.
Additionally, thanks to the efforts of ON READING and Shimauma Shobo, you can check out various voting benefits from participating shops at #投票特典NGY (Voting Benefit NGY).
While this is just something we can do, the important thing is that everyone goes to vote, so let's get out there!
We are also holding Critical Mass on Friday the 29th!
And on Friday, October 29th, we will be holding Critical Mass, an important civic movement for us cyclists, being held for the first time in a while now that the state of emergency has been lifted! Before the ride, we will also be hosting a "plogging" event (trash pickup) in the bike lanes, so we look forward to seeing you there—please remember to wear reflective gear!
