From quaint, low-key finds to massive, multiple-floored chains, here are eight stores you need to check out the next time you find yourself in Japan's capital:
If you believe yourself to be a truly devoted thrift shopper, take this rule into consideration whilst visiting Tokyo: Whatever looks you pre-planned for Instagrammable moments at the infamous Shibuya crossing or a sushi dinner at Umi, take them out of your suitcase. Right now. Take them out.
Thrift-shopping is different from ordinary shopping. It takes planning, and how you prepare can influence the rarity of the clothes you find and the amount of money you save. Rare find: A pair of blue, army-print cargo pants with a bottle of Tabasco sauce attached to the buckle.Kinji Used Clothing is the homebase of used items in Shibuya. Located in Harajuku and just a three-minute walk from the station, the warehouse is filled to the brim with amazing vintage items and categorized by both brand and style for optimal convenience. You might find a rare pair of Issey Miyake trousers or even a Christian Dior dress with tags still attached.
I scored a very cute custom cut-and-sew vintage tee-meets-denim button-down hybrid for under $20 U.S. dollars, plus a ton of colorful shoelaces and loud red tights.Instagram: @sevens_official.A few blocks down in the "cool" section of the Harajuku strip is a shop called Ripple. The store owner is a middle-aged man who is both very kind and knowledgeable about vintage items; he schooled me on a vintage Japanese brand called Hysteric that's been around since the late '70s.
