Summary of vintage clothing stores around Chitose-karasuyama Station in Setagaya-ku, Tokyo. Chitose Karasuyama Station on the Keio Line. I like the atmosphere of the large park in front of the station. The station is located between Roka Park and Sengawa, and is close to the Koshu Highway. There are not many second-hand clothing stores in the area, but there are two buzz stores near the station. A summary of recommended second-hand clothing stores that I actually visited.

Buzz Store is a second-hand clothing chain located in various parts of Tokyo such as Shimokitazawa and Sengawa.

There are two stores at Chitose-Karasuyama Station, one on the south exit side. The store is quite large. According to the official website, it seems to be one of the largest Buzz Stores.

At the entrance of the building, you can find second-hand clothes for 1000 yen or less at a very low price. Many items are priced at 500 yen or less, so this may be a treasure trove of cheap recycled clothing. There is a store on the mezzanine floor, and you enter the store by stairs.

Secondhand clothing for women. It is easy to see because it is divided by clothing genre.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20210407000258j:plain

I have the impression that there are quite a lot of small items and accessories such as bags and shoes. There is a wide range of prices, from cheap second-hand clothes to expensive second-hand clothes.

The aisles are wide and there are several mirrors, so it's easy to see.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20210407000310j:plain

Mainly, there are many products such as brand used clothes and brand recycled products rather than vintage and retro used clothes. There were also vintage clothes from the 80s and 90s.

Other side of the south exit buzz store, another buzz store at the north exit across the railroad crossing.

For some reason, there are two buzz stores in Chitose Karasuyama. Is it an office or headquarters?

The number of products is smaller than the South Exit store, but the price range is several thousand yen and the number of products is sufficient, so it is fun to look at.

f:id:kurakurakurarin1991:20210407000337j:plain

Personally, I was more interested in the products at the north exit store than at the south exit store. There were also Levi's 80s and 90s, and I saw all the jeans for the time being.

Usually second-hand Converse is less than 2000 yen, so it's cheap. I would buy it if it was the right size.

Very close to Buzz Store Chitose Karasuyama Kitaguchi. I couldn't go because it was after business hours when I visited.

Looking at the official website, it seems to be a general recycle shop that handles the recycling of women's clothing and kimonos. It doesn't look like a second-hand clothing store, but I like thrift stores like this because if you dig around, you'll find unexpectedly interesting things. I want to visit next time.

The atmosphere is so cool that I get excited just by going. It's a warehouse type store, so it's like a thrift shop in the suburbs of America! I visited by car before. There is a parking lot in front of the store, and several cars can be parked.

Although there were used clothes, the main store is a comprehensive recycle shop that sells antique and vintage furniture, home appliances, daily necessities, miscellaneous goods, and more. During my last visit, I bought ashtrays, old glasses, and leather belts. I thought it would be expensive because it was mainly vintage, but it was interesting to see that there were many surprisingly cheap and recycled items. The store is quite large and has two floors. Products such as furniture are updated on NEWS Karasuyama Store Instagram.
