Here's my guide to thrifting in the Kansai area! Any secret spots I may have missed? I chose these because they were the most accessible by public transit. I've been to a few other good ones but with a car.
古着屋 (furugiya) thrift store
リサイクルショップ (risaikuru shoppu) recycle shop
My top 3 fave stores:
1. Jam (locations in AmeMura, Horie, downtown Kyoto (2) & Momodani
2. Three Star (Kyoto & AmeMura)
3. Chicago (Kyoto)
4. whatever recycle shop is near you

Thank you for showing some alternative things to see and do in Kyoto: most videos keep showing gardens, temples and shrines with absolutely nothing kitsch, hidden, alternative or cool revealed about that magnificent, layered city. It's very hard to find a real variety of videos which explore the cool, arty underbelly of modern Kyoto so thank you SO MUCH. I hope more people make the effort to find cool things to see, do and buy in Kyoto and upload videos, much appreciated. xo
You’re very welcome! I’m hoping in the near future to explore more of Kyoto’s contemporary art scene as well ☺️
@@franklinthewoman Dude, I'm so here for it! xo
Frankie if you like Thrift Shops and chill but classy places, I highly recommend Nishinomiya Kitaguchi! Just 15 minutes by Hankyu from Umeda / Sannomiya station.
My favourite mall in whole Japan is located there called Nishinomiya Gardens with many hidden gems nearby!
Thanks so much I need to check that out!! I don’t think I’ve been to the Nishinomiya area yet. I always pass by though going to Sannomiya
Omg I love thrifting and I didn’t realize how many thrift shops there were in Osaka and Kyoto. Your style is so cute I loved everything you got. Also we have the same shirt, the kaws one you are wearing at the beginning of the try on. Me and my brother went to Uniqlo on the day everything dropped literally with our suitcases because we were heading to the airport 😅😂
Thank you!! I was also surprised by Kyoto the first time I passed a bunch of thrift shops there. Yay Kaws 🖤 they sold out so fast at Uniqlo!
The best Japan thrift vlog! I will go to all of these when I visit Japan!
I’m so glad it was helpful!! Japan has some amazing thrift shops!
This was a great video! I love window shopping with you! Lol! Thanks again! Have a wonderful week! Good luck with the move!
Thank you!! So proud of this one since it took so long to film and edit. Have an awesome week! 💖
Omg this was so well made and fun to watch! Love watching your channel grow and I can’t wait to see your house videos 💜
Thank you!! So proud of this one. We’re moving on Saturday so house tour coming soon 😇
This was so inspiring!!! I definitely want to check out Jam now and that expensive fancy old lady one! I loved your hair with the colourful clips btw, so cute! Looking forward to the house video!!
The fancy old lady store was the most interesting for sure 😂 wish i could have captured my interaction with the staff too
So glad you added what you got!! Love your style 😭 the pink sweater with the green details was my fav as well as the revamped plaid RL shirt 😭😭😭 wish I could find something cool like that here. (There prob is I imagine in BK lmfao)
You need to make a day trip out of it 😂😂 thank youuuu! Got more stuff actually but I already brought it to the new house 👽
first years of my life in tokyo i was only shopping at second hand stores. but the smell of the clothes started disturbing me and had to give away most of my cool stuff😩 and now this video made me go and shop some 😁
Some of the clothes do have a distinct used clothing smell sometimes! One of the sweaters I tried on in the video was so dirty I couldn’t buy it 😭 but yay!! Glad you’re inspired to go thrifting again 💖
great video, gave your video a thumbs up, not just because its a good video, but because I seen a Packer jersey and you can guess where am from, that's right I hail from the frozen Tundra - Green Bay, WI lol, the best place to be, but I like Japan more, again great video, would like to see what a guy thrift store looks like and the prices look like too, just so I have an idea of what to buy... :) Thanks
Thank you so much!! I’ll definitely be more inclusive next time and show more of the men’s sections
Just moved to Kansai from Shizuoka, so this is super helpful! Good to know there's lots of places to thrift!
Yay glad to help! Which prefecture in Kansai? 😇
@@franklinthewoman Southern Kyoto 🤗⛩️
Awesome!! 💖
yay!! this was lovely and so well put together! i’m so glad i could help you with some of it and was happy to go thrifting with you ☺️☺️
and thank you for the shoutout ☺️🤍
Couldn’t have done it without your help! 💖
When I converted the prices of the tshirts into euro my jaw dropped! That's insane! Even ¥5000 is crazy for a tshirt. It's not like they are designer or anything either. I would never sell my Nirvana tshirt but I wonder how much they would sell it for.
Yeah that’s true ¥5,000 is pretty crazy for tshirts unless they’re really special. Maybe they’d sell it for around ¥20,000 😂
Yep, I felt the same way on my first trip to Tokyo. Koenji and Shimokitazawa second hand vintage stores are all HIDEOUSLY overpriced. And I thought the whole 'tiny sizes only' thing was a stereotype but even I, as a UK size 8 to 10 found myself too big to fit into the majority of items I was drawn to. I couldn't believe it. If I felt like a beached whale, I can only imagine how a curvy and healthy size 12 to 14 chick feels-- gosh, not to mention the fellas! And I'd be curious to see how much your Nirvana shirt would sell for. By the way, here in the UK most hipster vintage stores are just full of nothing but pastel windbreakers. Just racks and racks and racks of bloody pastel or neon 1980's and 1990's windbreaker jackets and other ugly items that NOBODY cool ever wore in the 1990's. Wonder what items dominate the vintage stores where you are?
Those “grandma” sweaters as you called them, were more popular during the 80s and 90s. My grandmothers didn’t wear sweaters like that, since they were from the 1930s, they still liked wearing dresses, always an apron too! I had a big selection of cute pastel sweaters, vests, blazers, shoes... I spent most of my paycheck on clothes and makeup, then rent and gas for my car! Lol...growing up in the Los Angeles area, I went with friends to nightclubs, the movies, sightseeing and shopping around Hollywood or downtown L.A., they had a lot of old department stores and thrift stores too. I now live in the Central Valley in California, and we have a few big consignment shops that sells everything from furniture, antiques, clothes, purses, shoes, jewelry and one big section sells amazing costumes for adults, it looks like they were used in Hollywood movies! When we travel to different states, I go check out the local towns thrift shops, since my hubby is just walking behind me or waiting outside, I feel rushed but he’s a trooper and doesn’t mind. Next time we go to Hawaii, I want to see their thrift stores, I bet they have some cool old Hawaiian shirts there, and Hawaiian trinkets. I would love to visit Japan, all of it! Lol... and just explore everywhere and just have enjoy seeing different parts of Japan. Thanks for sharing!
That is true I don’t think my grandma has ever worn those kind of oversized floral sweaters and knits but for some reason they always get called grandma clothing. I’d love to go thrifting in LA if I ever get the chance to visit! Visiting local thrift shops is always cool wherever you go. Hope you’ll come to japan one day!! 💖
@@franklinthewoman When you ever get to travel more, I hope you show your husband more of the U.S., and you can also check out different thrift shops around. There's a place, I think it's still around, called Aardvark's, in Redondo Beach, CA. Not sure if there are more around, but they have the coolest vintage clothes. Also on Melrose Ave. in L.A., that street is known for all kinds of fun fashion, thrift shops and wild looking stores. I use to hang out there during the 80s! Lol My friends and I would sit and people watch, saw a lot of punk rockers walking around, people dressing crazy but cool people, it might not be like that anymore, we all grew up! Lol... and then there's Venice Beach, it has tons of cool shops and places to shop. My favorite city is San Francisco, that whole city is fun and has great local shops and hidden pubs and local ethnic food. Before I got married, I traveled a lot, mostly around the states but I met some great people and saw amazing places. Luckily I married a guy who loves to travel too! We've even been to Alaska twice, that was amazing to see! Take care and be safe over there! 💖
The store that limits you to just three items in the fitting room is right! I like that idea. Prevents others from having to wait too long.
It is definitely nice if there’s a line! They also let me and my friend go in together to save even more time. They wouldn’t let me back in though even though she took longer I had to wait in line again 😂😂
@@franklinthewoman Haha, good! They made you get back on line.
Do you find the selection better than NYC? I used to live downtown in the Chinatown/Soho/Lower East Side area and there were many such clothing stores.
I think the selection is about the same except for the remake/upcycled pieces - I hadn’t found anything like that in NY but I think that’s also just trendier now. It’s pretty comparable to stores like urban jungle and L train vintage in bush wick.
Cool ur video about Vintage ..
Thank you!! 😇
It all looks so good!! Now I really want to go thrifting 🥺
Yaaay glad I can inspire you to go! 💖
Love that shirt at 15:14! Those stores were great! =)
Yessss can’t wait to wear that one! Thank you 🥰
You just know all the good places for thrift shopping 😍 Take me to Jam in kyoto pleaaseee 😍😍😍
Let’s gooooo!
@@franklinthewoman I wanna do a thrift video too and maybe a makeover video 😊
oh! i went to the three star shop in kyoto and i didnt expect it to be so big!! i can spend a whole afternoon there haha
same hahah. with proper planning you could spend hours there
Hi! Nice to see your video. Have a question for you. 4:36 Where is the store located? Couldn’t find it on Google Maps:(
thank you for putting this together! love these type of videos. just a little constructive feedback: maybe consider putting some quiet background music with the voiceovers and shots of the stores? just a suggestion but you do you
No problem!! I’ve been having a hard time deciding what to do about background music lately. I got 2 copyright claims recently for songs I had chosen from the CZcams library, which I thought were okay to use copyright free (unless indicated otherwise), but I guess not! So now I’m really freaked out. Maybe I’ll learn how to use garage band and make my own music 😂
Thanks for this video, it was great visual adventure! And made me think more of going thrifting! I'm not into fall colours, but that velvet button up is a massive hit!😍 Love your style, giving lots of ideas what to pair with what. Mostly I liked the local recycle shop picks and the three star ones, those are mainly what I would go with as well! These videos are always a treat! 🤩Have you thought about doing a video on drug store items, not just beauty but health supplement products etc?
No problem!! Totally agree about the recycle shop stuff! I think I may have to pay them another visit before I move to the new house. Three star too was a great discovery recommended by my friend
I haven’t thought about that! I’ve been trying out a collagen supplement for a couple months or so, so I thought I’d review that. Is there anything specific you’d want to see? Or a drug store tour? ☺️
@@franklinthewoman A review on the supplement would be great, I'm always curious how much it has an effect in anyway, since collagen is not only good for your skin but joints as well. I'm a big fan of Daikoku and they have a nice variety but usually I'm there in an aisle for 15 min try to figure out which item is for what😂 so yeah a tour would be nice and even own experiences with items that you find only in Japan and how did you like it. For example my partner likes RedBull a lot but it's quite expensive in Japan. I've found the Japanese substitute as in the taurine shots you can buy in packs. I've tried it too and it has a nicer effect than a Monster energy drink! Or another idea is Costco trip, I would love to have an insight and comparison with US Costco. Pricing and variety vise also.
Would you be interested in doing these?
@@dorafarkas8684 definitely! I’m not sure how knowledgeable I’d be about all the drug store products but it would be a good learning experience! We also have a Costco membership so I could film there too, on a weekday 😎
@@franklinthewoman Both sounds cool! Try to ask your hubby about japanese remedies from drugstore, I think they are called koushi-drugs or something.
OMG I’d love to do a we style each other in up-cycled clothes video ahaha that would be so much fun!! I normally don’t shop at thrift stores but seeing what is here made me change my mind a bit ahaha
That would be so fun!! Yay glad I changed your mind a little - I’ve become really conscious about how awful the fast fashion industry is
@@franklinthewoman yea I’ve been trying to be better about how I buy too and not throw away clothes so easily. I loved how some of the clothes are remade and now I want to check out the shops ahaha I always thought remade clothes weren’t fashionable and were kinda grungy but seeing this made me change my mind and want to try to look at the up-cycle shops here.
There is also a really cool one that was in Umeda but it closed and they’re moving it to Kyoto and it reopens next week! We should check it out sometime 👏🏻 one of these days I’ll learn to sew too haha. One of the biggest issues with thrifting is sizing!
@@franklinthewoman ohh I’d love to!!! Yea sizing can be a problem.... if you good deal on the clothes you can invest in getting it fit to you though! I always have to do that with how small I am ahaha ✨
yesss finally and not in Tokyo!
yeaaah gotta represent kansai too!
II LOVE THISSSS
Thank you!! 💖
Do you know any secondhand shops that have websites? I heard that some Japanese thrift shops have websites for international customers but I can't seem to find any.
I actually don’t know any 😔 but if I ever find one I will post about it! A lot of the trendy thrift stores here sell things imported from other countries, especially the US
100+ dollars for vintage tees isn't that much if it's unique. Vintage band tees and graphic tees can go for thousands!
That’s true! If they’re legit concert tees or old merch it makes sense. The Green Day shirt might’ve been an old concert tee but I also saw a Bob Dylan shirt from lucky brand 😭
Hello 👋🏻 I met you and Rhiannon at 3 star 😊 next time let’s hang out together 💝
I’m glad you got the message!! 😂 let’s all hang out! Are you on insta?
franklin the woman oh yes, let’s do that 👭 my insta is: big__city__kitty
I thought japan doesnt allow fakes?
Technically they don’t but it doesn’t stop these shops 😆 it’s probably not enforced very strictly
@@franklinthewoman oh my…😥
Do you have instagram?
Yeah! 🌸 Same username franklinthewoman
Hi what is your Instagram? 🥺
