Tips from the community

Flamingo is a bigger store with locations housed around Tokyo, carrying a variety of vintage clothing from the '40s to the ’80s with a focus on American fashion. There are pieces constantly being imported from the US and Europe to keep the store stocked with an extensive selection of items. The store itself is more on the affordable end of thrift shopping in Tokyo, they often have huge sales so be on the lookout for this if you love finding a bargain.

    The patchwork of secondhand and vintage stores lining the winding streets near Shimokitazawa station are enchanting; with cafes, record shops, and arcades in between, the area is famously trendy yet more low key than Shibuya or Harajuku. Shimokitazawa is known for having a seemingly endless amount of fashionable shops catering to any subculture you can imagine. As someone passionate about shopping ethically and who is always looking for unique pieces to add to my wardrobe, I have spent countless day-long shopping sprees scouring thrift shops around every corner of ShimoKita. I’ve made a list of my go-to spots representing a variety of different trends for any thrifter who is looking to spend a day or two exploring one of the most unique assortments of secondhand and vintage boutiques you can find in Tokyo.
