What you are watching
I filmed this myself, on foot, the way you would actually walk it. Watch the light, the crowd and the pace of Shimokitazawa before you decide how to spend your evening there. This is one of 2 walks I have filmed in Shimokitazawa.
Tokyo's vintage capital. Two hundred thrift and second-hand shops in narrow car-free alleys, 'Mecca of Vintage' in the Japanese press. Plus live-music basements and the city's best secondhand vinyl. Two short stops west of Shibuya on the Inokashira Line.
