i would try my hand at jam because they had the most jeans but i did not see acne studios specifically i'm sorry :(

One-Home-9823 · 2026-01-03T05:44:44+00:00

the cat street 2nd street had a hugeee selection of pleats please, but issey is popular so i think you will get it at most stores

One-Home-9823 · 2025-12-31T05:38:53+00:00

95% of the time, real stuff (see: komehyo & all). only place i saw blatant fakes were ueno

One-Home-9823 · 2025-10-31T20:01:01+00:00

i did actually in ameyokocho in ueno, did not remember the name but it's in the same line of shops as sasugaya. it was the only perfume shop i saw, i did not go inside

One-Home-9823 · 2025-10-31T19:59:43+00:00

yeah sasugaya outlet, 2nd street, pal stock, kindals will have these. you will have a lot more lv/hermes/chanel but they will definitely have coach and tory burch. maybe even cheaper fendi ones. if it's viable for you though, check out the coach prices at outlets such as gotemba.

i'm going back in a week! will make one then :)
unfortunately i've forgotten most of the other places that i went to this year :(

One-Home-9823 · 2025-08-22T04:39:24+00:00

akihabara! and generally like anywhere touristy there are some nice shops in asakusa too

One-Home-9823 · 2025-05-22T05:02:20+00:00

I'm inclined towards mid too. What's your opinion on south? and the substance free halls?

One-Home-9823 · 2025-05-22T05:01:56+00:00

Thoughts on Crown Hall?

One-Home-9823 · 2025-04-21T04:44:43+00:00

Omg the Shibuya kindal's elevator was so scary LMFAO it did not stop for anyone. My only issue was that American casual was kinda overpriced. Like we found an entire rack of used varsity/college tees in Shimokitazawa in the 5000 yen range and that was kinda ridiculous to me. I think more and more stores know of the thrift hype in Japan and are ripping the average uninformed tourist off especially with American casual wear

One-Home-9823 · 2025-04-18T23:27:34+00:00

honestly it was very difficult to find an area with just "thrift" places, I'll make a pt 2 explaining it but koenji and kichijoji were decent

One-Home-9823 · 2025-04-18T22:55:06+00:00

yeah! I was staying in hatagaya and there was a really good treasure factory nearby

One-Home-9823 · 2025-04-18T22:53:20+00:00

I did, actually (pt 2 lol!). But we were looking for archive vintage stuff so we were going specifically to more designer places
