Cannabis

Cannabis is one of those stores that doesn’t feel like it opened so much as it’s always existed. It’s been around for about 25 years, and still matters for the same reason it always did: it isn’t built for people who only like clothes. It’s for people whose entire life is stitched into culture. Music, art, nightlife, fashion; all of it overlaps here naturally, across generations.

The racks move between UK-leaning underground, experimental pieces and real ready-to-wear. A lot of what’s inside has that ‘you can only get this here’ feeling: first-time-in-Japan carries and collaborations with local creatives.

Much of what you’ll find feels hard to replicate elsewhere, as their vibe is uniquely executed by their network across underground music, tattoos and publishing. Here, exclusivity doesn’t stance newcomers as the outsider. The staff keep it easy-going, and the space has the kind of funkiness that might make you want to crack open a beer after a good purchase.
