First dig in Koenji — from budget racks to archive pieces
👤 For a first visit to Koenji and a comparison of styles and budgets
Four shops in one neighborhood, chosen to compare how price and selection change. Start with a large budget resale rack to establish a reference, move to everyday American vintage and classic shoes, then finish with curated workwear and denim. The first two stops are enough for a shorter visit; skip a category that does not interest you. Times are suggested browsing time only, excluding travel and queues. Check each shop map link for current opening hours before you leave.

Use the broad resale racks to compare condition and price for one item you want. This sets a useful budget benchmark for the rest of the walk.

Compare everyday tees and sweatshirts with what you saw at the first shop. The editing of the same American vintage category can feel very different.

Shift from clothes to leather shoes and boots. Fit matters here, so try on anything you seriously consider.

Finish with workwear and denim where age and fabric matter. Consider what accounts for the price difference from the earlier racks.
