The second special issue of POPEYE, published on August 20, 1979.
This issue features the legendary "THE SKI BOY" special feature, edited to get you in the skiing mood before winter even arrives.
For young people at the time, skiing was a fashion, a culture and a lifestyle.

It is packed with information about skiing and youth, from ski wear and gear, to etiquette on the slopes, training methods, music, and romance. It is a book that symbolizes the youth culture of the late 1970s.

Published on August 20, 1979 , this is the second special issue of POPEYE magazine, featuring the iconic theme: "THE SKI BOY."
This issue dives deep into the winter lifestyle of young men who embraced skiing as more than a sport—it was fashion, culture, and identity.

Covering ski wear, equipment, manners on the slopes, fitness, music, and youth romance, it offers a vivid snapshot of late 1970s ski culture in Japan. A must-have for collectors of vintage Japanese lifestyle magazines and retro sports fashion.
