Quite a few things in Japan tend to be better than their counterparts in the States. McDonalds JP, for instance, takes a poop on what I used to eat back home...plus, they have smiles on the menu here. For free! Yeah...bet yo' ass can't order a smile to go with your Double Quarter Pounder with Cheese. Turns out, though, that even Japanese thrift stores are better than the ones in the US. Unless I happened to miss the thrift stores that carry shitloads of old Bape, Supreme, Bounty Hunter, Stussy and super rare, hard to find Jordans.
