Part of my mission on IDYSM is to look at not only how individuals express themselves through urban style, but also how cities identities are expressed as a collective mass.
I have a (long) wish list of countries that I want/plan to investigate, and right up at the top of that list is Japan, where urban style has a look and feel that is quite unique, and this week I was able to get a 101 Class when I visited the fantastic Sydney store Corlection.
The owners are passionate about not only stocking a number of premium Japanese labels (with a few from the US and UK too), but also educating buyers on how to wear them properly.
It starts with some amazing high quality selvage denim labels that offer some of the rawest denim I have ever seen. Pick a pair up and you will be told how to wear the products properly and how to treat them to enhance the fit, look and lifespan of the product.
From the wide range of high quality denim brands (Strike Gold, Pure Blue Japan and Levis to name but a few) their is great footwear from Red Wing and Throrogood and apparel from Comme, Ad Lib and more.
The store offers a great experience, and I recommend it!
