im going to tokyo next month what stores/areas would /fa/ recommend

>>11663040
WHOLE SHIBUYA. REALLY. WHOLE SHIBUYA.

Skip the Shibuya garbage and go straight to Harajuku. Pass by DoverSt if you got that kind of money to spend

>>11663057
>>11663051
not OP, but what's wrong with shibuya? I had a friend who visited Japan, and he told me "shibuya was digusting."

>>11663078
Shibuya is just the Times Square of Tokyo, and tokyoites hate it for the same reason new yorkers hate Times Square. You can find good stuff there but i don't recommend it.

>>11663057
any other good stores like dover street? ive got a pretty big budget and I love cdg and all their related brands

Ginza if you're not poor

>>11663246
Im not really into cdg but I do know they sell lots of it at Ragtag, a designer thrift shop in "cat street"

>>11663320
thanks for the suggestion do you know any other designer thrift stores or consignment shops that are worth checking out?

Most of my favourites are in Daikanyama

>>11663330
Not that anon, but I do recommend Ragtag too.
For designer thrift go to one of the many Kindals in Harajuku, they stock up everything /fa/ likes. 10 Tow in Shibuya is quite good, although you might have trouble finding it. The place stocks all-black Yohji, Helmut, CDG, Junya and the lot. It's in the third or fourth floor of a small building opposite the bicycle shop entrance of Tokyu Hands, right by an intersection.

Cat Street and Harajuku Street are where you want to go for used designer, although Harajuku Street leans more towards the streetwear crowd. I recall one shop selling a ton of Vetements and Ganryu on the second floor somewhere there but I don't remember its name.

shop guide

Shimo Kitazawa and Daikanyama has pretty good stuff too.

>>11663078
I've lived in Japan for my whole life and I can confirm that Shibuya is shit for shopping

any good restaurants you guys would recommend? this thread has been a huge help thanks everyone!!

>>11665766
Probably a bit far off, but there's a ramen restaurant called Karashiya (ら~めん からしや) in Kasai station. About 50 minutes from Harajuku.
There's always Usagi (うさぎ), best tantanmen and shio ramen I've ever had. The chashu there is mindblowingly good. Has a great atmosphere too.
Papapapa Pine in Nishi Ogikubo is pretty interesting, ramen with pineapple.
King Kong in Ikebukuro has really good tsukemen.
Sakura Tei in Harajuku has a pretty good okonomiyaki/yakisoba/monjayaki buffet, and you get to cook it yourself. It's also right next to an art gallery called Design Festa which is pretty /fa/, nice cafe there too.
If you want sushi, don't fall for the Tsukiji fish market meme. The sushi there isn't any better than a random sushi joint.

>>11666145
thanks ill have to check those places out
i love me some good ramen

I wanna to go to Good People Good Coffee, personally

how are you guys even on 4chan if you are successful enough people to go to tokyo and shit

>>11667976
idk maybe they were born there just a thought

>>11667976
Skip buying new clothes for a few months (or work extra and do both), use that money to go to Japan
Not that hard

>>11667976
4chan is a pass time

What's the Best place to shop for undercover besides the undercover store

BAPE and DSM Ginza

>>11666145
Completely false if you wake up super early to eat the 4000 yen omakase at Sushidai. Aside from that though you're right.

>>11666332
If you have time, hit up Tsuta. It's well worth the hype. Otherwise Nagi and Jiro are pretty great too.

>>11667976
I'm a student in Japan on scholarship. It's not hard to live here either, look at all the English teachers here.

op here ill also be staying in Nagano whats cool to check out there besides the monkey park

final bump and then i will fuck off

>>11667976
You don't have to be rich and successful to travel, just count every single cent you earn and spend to reduce the wasted money as much as possible.

>>11672355
what is it that you're looking for that already hasn't been discussed

>>11672355
You didn't even set a budget, there's many stores in different price ranges.

>>11672439
lets say a budget of 2500

>>11673886
For a full outfit? or more than one? or 2500 for one garment?

Does anyone have the Sufu Tokyo guide and would please mind sharing?

worth checking out

>>11675480
I saw the link above yeah but I was interested in more resources. Going there early next year

To piggyback off this thread I'll be in Denver next week, any cheap vintage or thrift stores to check out?

Check out 'SEE YOU SOON' in Tomigaya, Shibuya. It's mostly a homeware store, but they've got their own brand of clothing that appeals to the skate/streetwear scene if you're into that.

>>11675038
for a few garments
