SPOT.6 boro
. We took a short break before heading to the last spot. . Even on an ordinary street, the car is a picture-perfect vehicle.
Lastly, Mr. Kimura visited "boro," a used store along Teramachi Dori where "Loft Man" is also located. The owner, Noriyuki Ibaraki, buys items from the U.S. and Europe, and displays them in his industrial-style store. Among them, the French work and military items are the most impressive. The rich variety of items, mainly from Europe and other countries, is sure to impress any clothing lover.
Checking every detail carefully, we examine our favorite piece of clothing.
I naturally want to pick up French items and military items that I don't often see in Kyoto to check them out," he says. Sometimes I find items in good condition at surprisingly reasonable prices, and I sometimes visit the store looking for bargains (laughs).
Being in the same business, Kimura-san and Ibaraki-san engage in a lively discussion about clothing.
The store offers a wide variety of items that can be easily incorporated into adult styling, including vintage clothing remade to fit into modern outfits and dead stock. Even those who do not usually wear secondhand clothing are encouraged to visit the store.

How about some of the world's most beautiful bookstores, cultural facilities that serve as a bridge between Japan and France, galleries in Gion, and other spots that Mr. Kimura, who knows Kyoto inside and out, has shared with us? The Twingo is a perfect match for Kyoto, a city that has much in common with France, such as the beauty of the streets themselves and the elegant atmosphere of the city. My first impression is that it is really easy to drive. . It has more power than I expected and is a lot of fun to drive. It is the perfect compact city car," said Kimura. This winter, why not take a short trip around Kyoto with the "Twingo" as your partner?
