Goldwin Opens Third Flagship Store In Harajuku, Japan
Japanese technical outdoor apparel brand, Goldwin, today opened a new 676 sq ft brick-and-mortar store in Harajuku, Japan. It’s the third Goldwin store to open in the past two years, including Goldwin’s Tokyo store, which opened in November 2018, and, most recently, Goldwin’s US store in San Francisco, which opened in November 2019.
The Harajuku store represents a significant milestone for Goldwin, a 69-year-old maker of premium technical apparel label that is growing rapidly in both its homeland Japan as well as overseas in Europe and the US.
Exclusive to the Harajuku store will be a highly limited Goldwin capsule collection designed in collaboration with famed Japanese nature photographer Naoki Ishikawa. The collection, called WEA®SSETS, includes a down jacket and down pants printed with Naoki Ishikawa’s breathtaking mountain photography. Only 100 units per item will be made and can be purchased through pre-sale only.
“Goldwin is becoming a truly global brand, but we are proud to continue extending our roots in Japan,” said a Goldwin representative. “This is where it all began and where we draw so much inspiration from. Harajuku is very exciting to us because it’s a unique town known for its blend of cultures and trendsetting approach to fashion and design. Simply put, it’s a perfect place for a Goldwin store.”
Harajuku is a unique town where mix cultures are brought-in and evolved by visitors from all over. We are now excited to offer Goldwin’s versatile yet highly practical products to this town that always has been at the frontline of trends.
