Punk pants, custom leather jackets, and accessories such as a leather studded eyepatch. Next door (and still underground) is Jim Sinn. There’s a wall of slinky tops and jackets for Visual / host boy types. The fabrics and cuts are less refined than similar brands such as Sex Pot Revenge, but they make up for it in skulls and attitude. Next door is Death Trap ID, another indie boutique. And you’re still scuttling around like a teenager, dressing people up in pirate punk cat hoodies when they wander in. You’ve been running your little Harajuku shop and designing outfits for famous Visual Kei / J-rock artists for 25 years.
