It’s safe to say this is the mecca of vintage clothing in Japan. The "BerBerJin COLLECTIVE," a new store from the "BerBerJin" group—which operates a total of six physical stores based in Harajuku and an online store, offering high-quality American vintage clothing—will open on Wednesday, April 29, on Tonchan Street in Harajuku.
I’ve heard that the new store is a sort of ”best-of” concept, blending and remixing the styles of its sister stores—Berberjin Main Store, Fake α, Berberjin Yūhodō, and &Berberjin—all of which are also located in Harajuku. It seems the product lineup will be, quite literally, a “collective” selection.
Below are some of the launch items we received from the "Berberjin Collective." Let's take a quick look.
Mickey, whose popularity is skyrocketing, is available in a wide variety of items, from T-shirts to sweatshirts. We also have rare multi-print designs. For college-style reverse-weave shirts, we’ve curated a substantial collection featuring single-letter back prints. Ivy League schools like Princeton and Columbia are definitely worth checking out.
Patagonia offers a full range of colors for its Glycead line, led by the Bullseye design. They also have the Pataloha, which is perfect for the coming season. Kennington’s character-themed jacquard sweaters—including Disney designs—feel fresh again after coming full circle.
We’ve also got plenty of recent vintage staples ready to go, including Derby jackets, Pendleton flannel shirts, and heavy flannel in great color combinations. At Ralph, we’ve curated a selection centered around leather jackets. We’ve also handpicked only the best-condition vintage leather shoes, such as Alden.
This lineup lets you fully enjoy the best of vintage clothing, featuring everything from mid-vintage pieces to high-quality everyday wear. Vintage enthusiasts won’t want to miss this.
It’s located along Tonchan Street in Harajuku. Enter from Muraspo and it’s just past ”&BerBerJin” and “BerBerJin Main Store.” Look for the silver “BerBerJin COLLECTIVE” lettering on the brick wall in the basement of Lewis Leather.
