(Ex Tokyu) Hands flagships store in Shibuya to close


The only reason to go to Shibuya is now gone. There is just nothing like this store in central parts of Tokyo, I really feel that central Tokyo will just become some weird shell and if you actually want to buy anything that’s not LV you have to commute through central Tokyo to another place. The mini Hands stores just are not the same. Stuff like this just pushes more people to Amazon, convenience just isn’t there any more if we have to do a day trip to the other side of Tokyo to buy some moss or something.

I wonder if the building is to be demolished. Is there any way Cainz will change their mind ? Do petitions or public pressure work in Japan ?
