Hey guys, This is the first voting round of our SS17 fit battle, below there will be a google forms link for you guys to vote on which will also include links to all of the images.

There have been quite a few disqualifications due to lack of image submission so out of the 24 fit battles, only 8 will be voted upon.

Here is the voting form

Here is the updated bracket

For those who are already in Round 2, I will make a post for round 2 submissions once voting is over for this round so you guys know when to submit your fit pics.

Sorry for the delay!

Guide to Japanese second hand shopping

Posted: 07 Mar 2017 01:31 PM PST

Hey guys! There was a TON of interest for this yesterday so I decided to pick up the pace on getting this out there. I wanna preface this by saying that this list is in no way comprehensive, I'm sure I missed a large multitude of the smaller stores that you can only really find if you keep an eye out in person. That being said, I have 3 trips worth of personal digging which has led to the creation of this map. The map covers mostly larger cities, the vast majority of stores being found in the Tokyo region, with other major cities having a generous amount as well. This guide is mainly for second hand shopping, with a couple of retail stores included that I think are exceptional, however there's definitely a lot I've missed.

If you're on a tight schedule for your holiday I suggest not going to stand-alone stores unless if you happen to be in the area, but if you have nothing but time some can be worth a visit. If you do have the time I would definitely revisit stores after a week or so since they restock fairly frequently. On return trips to the same stores I picked up the Cav Empt plague hoodie and the Undercover work jacket from my pick ups post.

Etiquette

In Japan there are a few differences to stores elsewhere in the world. So there's a few things to keep in mind:

Ask before you use the change rooms, sometimes they won't let you try on certain pieces / only over clothing
No shoes in change rooms, usually there's a mat or carpet in the change room so they'll ask you to take off your shoes first, note there are some exceptions to this
Girls may be asked to use a face mask while putting on pullover clothing, or just be asked to be extra careful so as to not get make up on the neckline
When getting change, accept cash with two hands

THE STORES

THE MAP

Just peep the legend on the left of the map and you can see where each individual stores can be found.

Kindal

Kindal is an all rounder, they organise their clothing really well and often have brand sections which really helps when you're looking for something in particular

Jumble Store / Second Street by Jumble Store

My personal favorite, "Second Street" is the name given to the purely clothing branch of a second hand chain "Jumble Store", both iterations carry clothing so there's not much difference between the two. They organise their clothing by section, but often label the sections with brand names so you know what to look for. A few examples: "High Street" - yeezy, Off-white, FoG, Vetements, "Street" - Supreme, Stussy, Cav Empt, X-Large, Palace, "High" - Margiela, Raf Simons, Helmut Lang etc.

Ragtag / rt

Very similar to Jumble Store, they organise by sections. "rt" is their more formal branch, however they still stock some streetwear.

Don Don Down on Wednesday

These stores are amazing, they stock everything from vintage Yohji Yamamoto pieces to beat up Bapestas from the 2000s, and have an insane amount of stock on display at one time. I would highly recommend going into the stores on a Wednesday because that's when they always offer the best sales, however a lot of them include adding them on Line or social media, just ask a worker to help you out.

Rinkan

Very high end / luxury pieces. This is where you'll find popular Supreme collabs, Off-white, Yeezys, Vetements and other pieces on the higher end of the price range spectrum. I would only recommend going to these if you have money to burn since they usually sell everything at a fairly high premium, however they usually pack the most heat. Sometimes the store will be dedicated to luxury jewelry such as Goro's and Chrome Hearts.

Modescape

Similar to a Rinkan

Brand collect

Somewhere in between a Rinkan and a Ragtag, clothing goes from a mid price range to high, however they do put a lot of effort into finding the latest releases so the stores are really well stocked.

Cliff-edge

I'm giving this store a shout out because honestly was one of the coolest stores I visited. It's in Yokohama so it's a bit out of the way but they stock heaps of Supreme, WTAPS, Neighborhood, and Undercover, but really well priced since they're a fair way from Tokyo. The girl working there was super helpful and hooked us up with anything we needed.

THE PLACES

Here are the most notable places for second hand shopping, but you should just use THE MAP to fit places in with your own itinerary.

TOKYO

Shibuya

The highest concentration of second hand stores in any place, I suggest walking from Shibuya station straight to Don Don Down then northwards hitting all the stores before walking into Harajuku

Harajuku

Holds up to Shibuya in sheer number of second hand stores, but has the added bonus of being the hub for most brand's flagship stores as you walk through down to Omote-sando.

Shimo-kitazawa

Might seem a bit out of the way, but the entire area around the station has a huge amount of second hand stores, marked on map are the highlights, but I encourage you to look around each nook and cranny, there's some really cool stores around.

Koenji

Similar to Shimo-kitazawa but most stores are south of the station

Kichijoji

4 great second hand stores around a single station, close to the Ghibli museum if you're going

Shinjuku

6 second hand stores, including 2 ragtags in one spot which makes this a decent visit

OSAKA

I suggest doing a route from Shinsaibashi -> Orange Street -> Namba in whichever order, you can hit heaps of stores in a single trip

NAGOYA

Start at Sakae station and work your way south

That's pretty much it! Hope you guys can put this to use, and don't get too disappointed if you don't find anything amazing, there's heaps of luck and a bit of skill involved in finding great pieces. If you have any questions don't hesitate to send me a message, and if you find any mad heat send me a message as well!
