Suggestions for Tokyo Trip
Hey guys, going to Tokyo in August (and Osaka for a few days), and am keen to return with a haul of new clothes.
Already have pencilled in orslow, kapital, yohji and beams, but am interested in just about everything except formalwear, and will be going with some female friends so suggestions for female fashion is welcome as well.
I am Australian so there aren't many local options for fashion, even non-Japanese brands that have stores in Tokyo would be cool.
I am 6'3 so not sure if many of the second hand stores will have much in my dimensions, but would love to hear suggestions for that or any other miscellaneous things in Tokyo that aren't immediately apparent with a google search.

Psst if you're looking for a "thrift shop" in Japan, ask local guides for a "second-hand shop." The term "thrift shop" isn't well-known in Japan.
Daikanyama.
Secondhand shopping in japan is insane. I imagine you’d have alot of fun checking them out cause the stock is really cool amongst the different stores. The chains to look out for are 2nd Street, Kindal, and Ragtag
Also i have a map of restaurants, shops, bars, and sights in Tokyo, Kyoto, and Osaka from my past visits and am happy to share that with you, just DM me!
i was there last month. second hand shopping was great, some gems to be found. in terms of finding orslow, i ran around tokyo and couldn’t find any stockist w/ fatigue pants, like at all. everyone told me the were sold out. definitely visit nepenthes and beams in harajuku, both stores have great vibes and really cool pieces
Shimokitazawa for thrifting
These were my favourite stores
Tokyo:
10tow
Archive Store
Laila Store
Don Don Down (Yokohama specifically)
Modescape
Osaka:
La Grande Lue

Cool, thanks all, will look into all of it.
This is a great list, I'd only heard of a couple of these already
I’m going to Japan next week and I’m interested in this part
