Hello all--
I will be in Tokyo next week. Would love to try on some vintage or used leather jackets (on the lookout for a 30s-style halfbelt) and/or fedoras but any budget for actual spending would likely be quite small by Tokyo vintage standards.
Any suggestions for spots to check out where there might be a chance i could actually afford something like a used Aero jacket or knocked about vintage piece? I've read about Koenji and Shimokitazawa as vintage store neighborhoods --if I could only do one, which would you recommend? I've seen the store Whistler praised online but would love any suggestions.
Also, is there any negotiating prices for vintage/used pieces or is that a big NO?
Cheers,
David
