24 recommended BEST vintage clothing stores in Nakazaki-cho, Osaka JAPAN

Nakazaki-cho is a mecca for second-hand clothes in Osaka, such as European and American casual clothes! When it comes to old clothes in Osaka, Nakazakicho is the place to go. I like Nakazaki-cho more than Tokyo's second-hand clothing district. There are a considerable number of stores, but almost all of them are actually visited, shopping and introduced to second-hand clothing stores that you like.

Nakazaki-cho is a short walk from Osaka Station and Umeda Station. There are cafes and hair salons that have renovated the old townscape, and the narrow back alleys are lined with shops that are like hideouts. No matter when I go to Nakazakicho, I never get tired of it.

It's a little far from the area where second-hand clothing stores are concentrated in Nakazakicho Station, so it's a recommended second-hand clothing store.

The price range is often between 5,000 and 15,000 yen. A good store with many vintage items at reasonable prices. I think there are many around 80s to 90s. Considering the quality and lineup of products, I felt that it was cheap. Mainly men's.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20211129193523j:plain

I got a good impression that there were a lot of second-hand clothes in a size and condition that I could wear properly. Personally, I was glad that there were many sports and outdoor items such as nylon jackets.

Similarly, second-hand clothes store JAM has a lot of cheap second-hand clothes of around 1,000 to 5,000 yen. I'm also happy that there are enough stocks for ladies.
