The Japanese Repro Clothing Thread (Real McCoys, Freewheelers, Etc.)

Nice! How did you find that store? Tell me your secrets!

I just typed « Century Denim » in FromJapan’s Rakuten interface.

Honestly, in the day or two I looked into it, it just seems best to go to the brand stores I am into (TRM, Iron Heart) and make a stop at Hinoya for some more variety. I think by the time I get there I will be focused on buying as much TRM as I can. Going in October also means I can buy the FW23 Iron Heart for a nice discount. Otherwise I was going to be a fly on the wall and mark down whatever people suggest and research if it's worth going. I pushed Tokyo from 4 days to 6 days so my wife/partner/baby momma doesn't get pissed if I spend a day looking for reprowear. She agreed it was smart.

A good majority of repro type shops are all centered around Shibuya (RMC, Freewheelers) Warehouse Flag store is in Ebisu. Multi-brand shops like Hinoya and Americaya are in Ueno which is close by. Iron Heart is actually quite a trek out of the main hub of Tokyo so unless you're super into that brand may not be worth the effort to go to their flagship store.

I noticed it. I think it's where Haraki grew up. Can I find the same stuff elsewhere in the city?

Honestly don't know any other stockists for the brand in Tokyo metro area, but I don't follow IH at all so I'm not 100% sure if there is.

Well this is why I added two days to my trip. I can waste a few hours heading out for my once-in-a-lifetime pilgrimage.

Good ol' dicktodd

 

[Mghart]

I laughed at the description.

 

[jischwar]

He's basically asking for double the retail on each shirt. Some that are still in stock

WTF??

Now these flannels run 350 to 420 and the 4x or men’s Xl always always runs out and is hardly ever n stock. Sooooo don’t ask to lower the price don’t ask why I’m pricing the way I am. Uve got 8 shirts here n stock n ready to ship

So at full retail price they are about $3200. So the extra $2K is because they are "here n stock n ready to ship"

Seems reasonable.

This is some elite trolling, I kind of love it.

I just turned all my warehouse tees pink! I never separate whites and colors (besides indigo) and never had a problem before. Unfortunately I washed them all at the same time and now they're all pink! The weird thing is there's basically nothing in the load that was red, the closest thing was my that my gf washed a new bra that's "nude" color, which maybe has some pink in it. Also there were other whites in the load that are fine!

Hoping that a dose of oxyclean can get it out, but I suppose if not I'll move to chlorine bleach. Wish me luck boys

Ouch. That stings.
