The second-hand clothes sales event "FURUGI FES" will be held for the first time on December 18th on the 1st floor of the Aomori Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Shinmachi, Aomori City).

Second-hand clothing store ESSENCE (Furukawa, Aomori City, TEL 017-772-0426 ) This event was planned by owner Hiroyuki Miura. On the day of the event, 4 second-hand clothing stores from Aomori will be selling vintage items and 1990s street items, as well as booths selling coffee and sweets.

This project was proposed and realized by Mr. Miura, who opened a business to liven up the Shinmachi area, while talking with the person in charge of AOMORI STARTUP CENTER. “A second-hand clothing store opened in Aomori around the same time as our store, so I thought we could do something,” says Miura.

In addition to "FURUGI FES", we will collaborate with Aomori's entertainment office "REVIVAL PRODUCTION" to distribute collaborative videos and Instagram cooperation at second-hand clothing stores.

Mr. Miura said, "I negotiated with the second-hand clothing store that will open this time. I've been invited to participate in events, but this is the first time I've planned it myself. I want many people to come, and there are various second-hand clothing stores in the city. I want people to know that there is a store. When I was a junior high and high school student, I used to buy clothes at night stalls. I want to create an environment where people can gather like that time." "We are planning to hold a similar sales event next year. We also plan to hold a flea market with general participation next spring at Aomori Station Park."

"Even if you don't know much about second-hand clothes, the staff will give you advice. There are also food-related stores, so please feel free to come and visit," said Miura.

The event is held from 11:00 to 17:00. free entrance. On the day of the event, the Aomori Ekimae Park underground parking lot and Auga parking lot will be free for purchasers.
