BackStreet (Machida/Tokyo)
The camping boom is irrelevant. An outdoor store where vintage clothing connoisseurs gather.
The shop mainly sells unique vintage outdoor brand items. The outdoor clothing industry is experiencing even more product shortages than the typical American casual clothing, such as denim and sweatshirts, which have become difficult to obtain in recent years, but this shop is an exception.
Starting with major brands like Patagonia and Gregory, the store offers everything from apparel to backpacks and gear, with items dating back to the 1970s. As you can see, the store is always packed with rare items. The quality and variety of the products is such that people from domestic and international outdoor brands visit the store to learn more. It's truly on a different level.

magforlia (Fujieda/Shizuoka)
A Puma mecca where collectors from all over the country gather
This sneaker specialty store is run by Takaya Yamada, a world-renowned Puma fanatic. People from all over Japan flock to this store in search of vintage sneakers carefully selected with a keen eye for aesthetics. The special-order models he personally directs are so influential that they sell out instantly.
Wanting to sell directly rather than through mail order, they do not provide information on the arrival of vintage items. They are particular about the condition of vintage items, and what is considered mid-range at other stores will be considered low-ranking at Magfolia. Although they are often thought of as a Puma specialty store, they also carry a wide range of sneakers from Nike, Adidas, and no-brand sneakers.
