Amid growing global efforts toward sustainability, the apparel industry is also turning to secondary distribution, including secondhand clothing. With brands increasingly entering the secondary distribution market, the boundary between primary and secondary distribution is gradually becoming blurred.
This pop-up shop is a collaboration between Isetan Shinjuku, a leading player in primary distribution, and OR NOT, the only archive platform for designer brands. It offers a mix of archives and new Fall/Winter 2021 collections, showcasing OR NOT's vision for the future of the apparel industry.

Over 100 archive items from HELMUT LANG and RAF SIMONS released in the 1990s and 2000s will be on sale, mixed with Fall/Winter 2021 items from designer brands in Isetan Shinjuku.
