    Nothing better than shopping all day in Shimokita then walking back to the Mustard Hotel, pick out a few vinyl records in the lobby and play them in your room as you unwind from the day.

    Reggie, this video was super refreshing and engaging! I've always wanted to see more vlogs and you definitely delivered. It was cool getting to see some storefronts in the area and the fits of those walking around.
    Bravo man, please give us more content like this when you can (in addition to the regular content of course) appreciate all the work you guys put in! 🙏👏

    I usually go to Shimokitazawa for the music shops that are there - there are some great records that I've found for my collection from that area, but now I'll have even more of a reason to go back for the fashion 🔥

    Love it and brings back memories when I did a solo trip to Japan 10 years ago and ws told to visit it for fashion pick ups. Was so refreshing. I also remember at the MOS burger there there was an older local who was like a regular and had his pet cat there 'reading a book'. Ahh Japan... 😂

    Great video! My absolute favorite district in all of Tokyo! Spent 4 full days just in shimokita last time I was there, so much to do and see! Pro tip: if you like vintage shopping make sure to leave some room in your luggage bc it’s a haven! Not only for clothes but lots of other vintage stuff too like Vinyl LPs! There’s loads of disc union all over Tokyo but I like the one in Shimokitazawa the most.

    loved your video bro, I love Shimokitazawa... when I visited Japan for the first time in 2014 we got our airbnb there and stayed 2 weeks it was awesome living the Shimokita life The transformation of the train station and around it were just starting at the time... I look forward to coming back... enjoy !

    Nice video! I used to live in Kichijoji and work in Setagaya. I had to change trains in Shimokitazawa and would often stop there to have a look around, go for drinks etc. Interesting to see how much it has changed. It was a much grungier place back then (2005-06).
    Have you considered doing a similar video about Koenji? It's a rarely-mentioned place outside of Japan, unless you're really into vintage clothing.
    Peace and best wishes from Shinjuku 👍

    • @THECASUALco

    I agree when you said that Japan / Tokyo is old.

In my country Indonesia most places / shops already receive phone payment. I rarely carry around cash here.

    I'm looking forward to see how it has changed when I go back next year hopefully but in 2019 I was pretty much disappointed because the majority of shops offered high priced vintage american clothes only. So I went to smaller thriftshops around tokyo and a fleamarket and found some very nice (vintage, japanese brands, designer) and cheap (¥100 and up) stuff there.
    Anyways, I like the vlog content too 🐸🌸

    My favourite part of town. South and west of the station was my hood. But I was there 7 years ago and everything seemed closed due to the expanding station development. I dunno what you call old, but there isn’t much from before the 60s Tokyo is mostly 60s or 80s buildings. I was in ikejiri. Bike ride down the river
