Japanese NITCHE Department Store is built by people at the forefront of Japanese pop culture — folks who keep up with everything from classic manga to the latest anime, films, dramas, and music.

Beyond pop culture, our day-to-day work has also deepened our appreciation of regional Japanese craft.

We started this shop because we wanted to send our overseas friends the things they love. We bring in Japanese culture goods a little at a time, and design originals in our own studio. Working directly with printers, illustrators, and independent artists — keeping the catalogue small, and therefore carefully chosen — is our motto.

Everything ships from Japan within two business days of your order.
