On the way home from Karuizawa, we passed through Sakudaira next door. Both Karuizawa and Sakudaira are areas with few used clothing stores, but I actually visited them. Sakudaira has a large Second Street and Don Don Down, as well as two second-hand clothing stores.

Second Street Sakudaira Branch

One corner of a large shopping mall.

Free parking available.

In Nagano, where the mountains are close, there are plenty of camping equipment.

In a large store, general recycle shop. There are quite a lot of musical instruments and miscellaneous goods.

There are both men's and women's used clothes. There were almost no vintage items, but the inventory of regular second-hand clothes and recycled second-hand clothes was quite large.

There was also a section for Dr. Martens in the ladies section. I bought Gregory's backpack for 6500 yen to resell used clothes.

Don Don Down On Wednesday Saku Branch

Large store. A joint store with Sairaku Re+, a comprehensive recycle shop.

Free parking available.

The 1st floor is the re-raku Re+ floor, where everything is sold as a general recycle shop, including anime goods and home appliances.

Used clothing Don Don Down is on the 2nd floor.

There were quite a lot of women's items in stock, and there were also many kids' and children's clothing. There are also men's, but surprisingly few.

Very few vintages. They are lined up by popular brands, but the intricate store unique to Don Don Down is like an exploration, which is interesting.

The retro second-hand clothing section for women is well-stocked with second-hand Japanese clothing from the 80s and 90s.
