Chichibu City, Saitama Prefecture. It is a popular tourist destination surrounded by nature, including a geopark, although it is close enough to be a day trip from the city. There are historical buildings such as temples and shrines, and the mountains are beautiful, so many people visit for trekking. Many people visit Nagatoro Iwadatami and Chichibu at the same time. There aren't many second-hand clothing stores, but there are high-quality vintage second-hand clothing stores, so I definitely recommend visiting Chichibu.

Secondhand Oops!
The most used clothing store in Chichibu. First of all, it is Good that the American flag is displayed at the storefront. The exterior, which is based on mint green, also has the atmosphere of a wonderful shop in the American countryside.

Parking available. Chichibu Shrine is also close to Chichibu Shrine, about halfway between Ohanabatake Station on the Seibu Chichibu Line and Chichibu Railway Chichibu Station.
My favorite vintage clothing store in Chichibu. First of all, used clothes are cheap compared to the market price. And it is in good condition and is really well cared for. There are second-hand clothes for Japanese people in pretty good sizes.
Based on American casual brands such as Carhartt, Ralph Lauren, and Dickies, there are both men's and women's clothing. We have a wide selection of items such as Tyrolean, work shirts, patterned shirts, hoodies, long T-shirts, jumpers, jackets, and sweaters.
Even US-made vintage Levi's in the 90s are available for less than 5000 yen, which is cheap. The price range is around 1000 to 5000 yen. Cheap anyway. They also have sales often. Products are featured on Official Instagram.
It's fun to talk with the female shop owner, and the signboard cat is sometimes there, and it's friendly. Although the store is not large, it is lined with carefully selected, high-quality used clothing. Mostly around 80-90s.

Walking distance from Chichibu Station on the Chichibu Railway Chichibu Main Line. There is a parking lot next to the store. Close to Chichibu Shrine.
Mainly men's. From casual American casual brands such as Ralph Lauren, to vintage Levi's, Carhartt, The North Face, and other outdoor items. Military is also strong.
This shop has a good balance of classic items such as jeans, corduroys, work pants, overalls, jackets, nylon jackets, sweatshirts, fleece, flannel shirts, and US T-shirts.
The store clerk is friendly, has a wealth of knowledge about vintage clothing, and is fun to talk to. The price range is often around 5,000 to 10,000 yen.
Thrift Shop Ryohin Market
The miscellaneous condition makes you wonder if it's a shop for a moment. This raises the tension. Chichibu store is written, but is it a chain store?

The shop doesn't have a big signboard, so it's a little confusing. Free parking is available in the space in front of the store.
A lot of things are lined up in front of the shop. It is dangerous if it collapses, so if there is something you want to see, please call out.
Anyway, all sorts of things are sold in tight boxes. There are some old clothes, but the number is small. There are many recycled old clothes, and the price is cheap. The price range is around 500-3000 yen.
Basically, there is no price tag. The more you dig, the more old antiques and vintage items you will find. There are records, used books, tableware, novelty goods, miscellaneous goods, furniture, and so on.
Personally, I was wondering if I should buy an old Japanese wooden shelf. Perhaps because of the location of Chichibu, there are many antiques and props, as well as Japanese vintage items.
There was also a medicine cabinet. Can read characters such as Kerorin and Chugai Pharmaceutical. The company name is written in an old font, so it must be quite old. The price range for antiques and props is wide, ranging from 500 to 15,000 yen. I bought a cute old glass vial for 500 yen. It's like a paradise for people who enjoy looking and judging even if there is no price tag or junk. Personally, it is a must-see in Chichibu.
Recycle Mart Chichibu Store
A comprehensive recycle shop that sells anything and claims to be the No. 1 in the Chichibu area.
Free parking available. There is a chateraise in front, so you can buy ice cream while you are there.
First of all, it's amazing that blocks are sold in the parking lot. It seems to be a building material outlet.
Since it is a general recycle shop, there is almost anything. Home appliances, cameras, musical instruments, furniture, second-hand clothes, records, brand-name second-hand clothes, etc. Furniture was cheap.
Because Chichibu is famous for its whiskey and Ichiro's malt, the old sake corner has a wide selection. Vintage and limited edition Ichiro's malts, which are no longer available in Chichibu stores, are sold in showcases.
There weren't many used clothes, so it wasn't very impressive, but it's cheap because it's mostly recycled used clothes. Around 500 to 3000 yen. I bought Ray-Ban and vintage sunglasses made by Bausch & Lomb that I found in the showcase. 5500 yen.
WAPLUS COFFEE
Antique shop and cafe located along Uemachi Street in Chichibu. Operated by a company that deals with renovations and building materials? It seems to be related, and the interior using vintage furniture and antiques is very nice. If you get tired of sightseeing in Chichibu and visiting second-hand clothing stores, take a break at Waplus Coffee.

There is a free parking lot within walking distance. If you run along Uemachi-dori, there is a signboard, so it is easy to find.
Books such as overseas travel, old clothes, antiques, etc. are lined up, and works such as glasswork artists' works are also sold. The coffee is delicious and the spacious interior is a nice space.
A part of the store is an antique corner, where vintage miscellaneous goods such as old tableware, lighting, interior decorations, and ornaments are sold. There were many interesting items such as tableware from old Japanese shipping companies and old lighting fixtures that could be used if repaired. A cheap impression for an antique. About 1000 to 10000 yen.
