[quote user="deuxmille"]at the risk of sounding like I wish I still were in Tokyo, we should open a clothing store/ramen joint. It would make total sense.[/quote]
I'm in!! Now, all we need is a little startup fund, and a whole lot of connections.
we could set up a shop that sold abercrombie and other american shit that the japanese eat up... i could get connections with the factories in china ;) haha.

A possible market might be more important than the means to implement the idea though.....
Speaking of local market, I just bought a Rick Owens L/S tee. Michel Brisson is carrying quite a bit of it so go spend all the STM money you wont spend there :P
Oh, and Fuuma, ramens would make a killing here hehe.
Got some of the Plokhov/Uniqlo stuff this morning. Just about all XS were gone when I arrived (shirts are running big) and most S sizes were gone already, they said they'll restock around the weekend. The collection is really small and really nothing to be disappointed about if you miss it. It's all rather plain but some nice cheap stuff to kick around in for the summer, I got:
-Grey windbreaker with fold over collar detail, probably the best thing in the collection.
-Grey shorts, nice and slim with the signature cloak pleating detail, material is crappy though.
-White polo, the polos are nice, but almost completely sold out when I arrived (at noon!).
-Dark blueish grey jeans. Almost didn't try them on because I need jeans like a hole in the head, turned out the fit was fantastic on me and they are light and a little stretchy, perfect for summer.
I'll post pics probably tomorrow.
At the barney's sale I got the nicest shoes every, Dior 5cm heel grey chelsea boots, sex on a stick! Also picked up the Cloak plaid shorts.

OMG, I said that when I was in Stockholm, lol. It's amazing how vastly influential American pop culture on the rest of the world.
