Chicago Harajuku

“wide selection of 80s and 90s gear at top tier prices. choice items are expensive.”

“Basic selection of clothes and they are charging insane prices for mediocore pieces. Not the mention the employees that work there are rude and very rigid. I can see why foreigners may find this store cool but for Americans id avoid this one, you can find their stuff at goodwill.”

“Shop itself is very nice. Large variety of clothes and traditional stuff, but today I encountered very unfriendly staff (man in jeans jacket and a beanie) at the checkout. He was not even looking at me, ignored my questions, was mumbling something. I just felt like he wanted me to leave as fast as possible. Clothes also seems to be a bit pricy for a second hand.”

“I like this store in theory, but didn’t have a great shopping experience there myself (nothing fit and the dressing rooms were HOT). That said, I can see the appeal and vouch for the quality of their products, so I’d still recommend checking it out. :)”

“An expansive selection of kimonos and other traditional Japanese clothing! Some other vintage stores and thrift stores don’t even offer these in favor of more trendy and Western clothes. The only thing is, the prices are a bit expensive, about 10,000 yen or more. If you’re looking for a deal, I would recommend Book Off Super Bazaar. (Not the regular Book Off as that’s mainly just books, plus the stores are small)”
