Tokyo is the heart of Japan and the busiest city with many huge buildings.
You can find pretty much anything in Tokyo. Even when it comes to fashion, you can find the latest trends in the city. There are many brand stores around the City of Tokyo whether it is for brand new clothing or second-hand.
In this article, I will discuss 5 of the best second-hand stores in Japan.
Second-hand stores are very common, not just in Tokyo but all over Japan. Huge second-hand stores are mostly found in central Tokyo.
The good thing about these second-hand shops is that they not only sell previously owned items but also accept items that you no longer use and want to sell.
Here are some of the best second-hand shops in Tokyo.
1. 2nd STREET
2nd Street is a re-use shop that is very famous in Japan. You can buy and sell used items here.
They have a little bit of everything: from fashion branded clothes, shoes, bags, and accessories. Even large items like home furniture, gadgets, sports accessories, toys, and much more.
However, there are some stores that only sell clothes, shoes, bags, and accessories. This, especially in Tokyo because the space of the shops are smaller compared to stores located in more rural areas.

Greetings to all mommies I am a supermom from Philippines. Previously, I worked and lived in Dubai for seven years, until 2015 the year I moved in Japan. Currently, I am happily settled here with my Japanese husband and our 7 months old baby. I could only describe my almost 6 years of living here as a roller coaster ride more so, after I gave birth to my son. Japan had changed me in ways unimaginable. It has influence my lifestyle, my perceptions and beliefs. I was able to witness firsthand the pros and cons of living in the country. From their language, culture and ethnicity, the people, place and in work. Those years were enough to give me quite personal and memorable experiences which I would be more than delighted to share with you.
