I lived in Japan 4 years ago and went to harajuku loads of times, there&#39;s several other good stores dotted about although they can be a little expensive. I&#39;ve just moved back to Japn, planning a trip to Tokyo soon, hope Kinji is still there!! xKirstynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259162477992853660.post-39345379697077164462010-09-12T23:22:58.641-07:002010-09-12T23:22:58.641-07:00I can&#39;t find Kinji!Andrehttp://www.andreherrero.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259162477992853660.post-12214657368912964932009-12-29T19:01:17.395-08:002009-12-29T19:01:17.395-08:00Makes me want to jump on a plane and fly to Tokyo!

It&#39;s in the centre of the mall, not an actual shop, right outside the department store. I&#39;ll be checking out the places you recommended soon.

Love the tips. Next stop will be Shimokitazawa! Linked your article on my blog. Hope you don&#39;t mind. :)Jessicahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15719300309746758074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259162477992853660.post-11130214433496513922009-06-26T23:02:52.260-07:002009-06-26T23:02:52.260-07:00Hey Lotta,<br />The store in the picture is Star Verry in Shimokitazawa. That&#39;s not Harajuku. You have to take the Keio Inokashira line to get there. You can take that line from Shibuya station.Shimokita is a great idea and I totally recommend it for vintage shopping.<br /><br />I also know the place neat La Foret that you wanted to know about. It&#39;s hands-down the best and cheapest and maybe even biggest vintage store in Tokyo. It&#39;s called Kinji and I&#39;ll tell you how to get there...<br /><br />-You know La Forest, right? Directly across the street from La Foret is The Gap. The building right next door to the gap has Kinji in the basement. Walk past the gap and you&#39;ll see signs for a mexican restaurant. Take the escalator downstairs and across from the mexican place is Kinji. Have fun!!<br /><br />Also, eat a taco at the mexican place. They&#39;re not spicy but they&#39;re really good.<br />xoxJuliehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05907241018505730014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6259162477992853660.post-32110563321075456532009-06-26T18:59:56.155-07:002009-06-26T18:59:56.155-07:00Hi!<br />I&#39;m looking for a vintage store in harajuku that I think you&#39;ve got the photo in your posting from.

I live some way away from Tokyo and have only been there two times, but next time I'll make sure I'll go to Harajuku.

I love their dresses and buy something everytime I go in there!<BR/><BR/>Often pop upstairs to Hanjiro and drool over their chandeliers! Hanjiro is also excellent for recycled remakes!<BR/><BR/>When I first came to Japan I thought the 'op shops' were so expensive. That is because I was going to the wrong ones!sushizumehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03643304205434565540noreply@blogger.com
