There are three Kapital stores next to each other in Ebisu. Kapital Legs was the most fun, has all the century denim and boro and the staff were young and a little nuts. Duffle had a wide selection and was reasonably quiet. The mainline Kapital store was crowded and didn't seem to have anything more than Duffle / Legs and didn't have any century denim.

I'd also rep Koenji, Whistler and the Safari stores. The trick with Whistler is the main entrace is ivy coded but there's a side entrance that you'd miss that goes upstairs, is way bigger, and is where all the milsurp and workwear is hiding.

How do you separate good advice from bad advice? - Topic of the day 4/23/25
The more certain and prescriptive the advice giver is the more likely they have a very narrow view and are lacking in any real insight.

I got the two piece, as per yesterdays waywt. I wasn't as hyped about the cotton pieces in comparison to the wool poly. It was the drape and flow of the wool / silk pieces that really attracted me. Took a shot on the work jacket / twisted denim. Could not love them more. Look so good, so comfortable but built like tanks. The opportunity cost was another EG bedford 2-piece but I'm glad I went this direction. Hits the same vibe for me but with it's own distinct flavour.
