Mega Man Sneaker Collaborated with UBIQ Japanese Shoes Brand in Tokyo


Mega Man Sneaker Collaborated with UBIQ Japanese Shoes Brand in Tokyo

I got news about Megaman (Rockman) shoes will be released in June, 2015, that collaborates with UBIQ, Japanese shoes brand which has been born in Tokyo, Japan.

If you are a man, and you often used to play video games in your childhood, I'm sure you are know Megaman well. No explanation needed, right?

As you see it in the photos, the shoes has a lot of his poses, and of course, it is an 8-bit-design. Also, the color blue is so cool for all of men!

Pre-order has started already at their website

I guess it is "Built-to-order" item (BTO)". So if we lose this chance, we may not get the shoes in future. So I'm writing this article to help all of fans of Megaman! 

As I see the official site, it seems you can order it until March 15, 2015, and they will stop accepting orders after the date.

Available order date: Until March 15, 2015
Estimated delivery date: End of June, 2015

As I mentioned, it looks Built-to-order, so if you order it now, you have to wait for its arrival in spring or summer. 

Shoes Size Variation

I checked it already. They have 22-29 cm, but they don't have a half size. The half size I meant is that we cannot choose some sizes like 22.5cm, 24.5cm, or 28.5cm. Only eight types of size it has. Like this. 


Hey... My foot size is 26.5cm... 26cm is little small, and 27cm is little big...

How do I order the shoes from my country?

If you know us already, I don't need to explain it, do I? But if you don't know our service "Private Import Japan" yet, please order it with us. We can buy it on your behalf, receive it, and send it to you from Japan!

Have you decided which size you buy? Oh that's great. Okay, let's try to order it like a step below now. 

1. Check the price and size

What is America Mura?

What is America Mura? 
America Mura is a name of area in Osaka, and it is called "Ame-mura". Osaka has several places we can play though, I can say Umeda and Namba (Shinsaibashi) is TOP 2 cities in Osaka. Also, Umeda is called Kita area and Namba is called Minami area. Kita means north and Minami means south. We often hear someone's talking by phone when we walk in the street in Osaka. 

"Hey, where are you now?" 
"I'm in Minami!" 

Ame-mura Fashion
In this area, we often see young people wearing unique clothes and accessories. Of course it is not for all people in Ame-mura, but I feel there are many of them. Also, there are a lot of used clothes shops along the streets. The prices of those used items run the gamut, but you will enjoy only seeing them in Ame-mura. 

Kouga-ryu Takoyaki
There is a Takoyaki store in front of a park called "Sankaku Kouen (Triangle Park)". This takoyaki shop is vary famous in Japan. Kouga-ryu Takoyaki, we call it. My favorite menu at the shop is "Negi-pon" takoyaki. The takoyaki has green onion on the top and put a ponzu sauce. Can you imagine it? It is very delicious. Please try to eat "Negi-pon" when you have a chance to visit Ame-mura! 

Does Ama-mura become a dangerous zone at midnight? 
Actually, I say "yes". There are a lot of young people in Ame-mura even if it is midnight. Also, red-light area is working and many drinking places opens until morning, so it is true that someone who does bad things appears in those town. However, there are nice bars or great disco clubs, too. So if you choose the best place, you won't meet any troubles. 










Harajuku Joshi (Harajuku Girls)


What the place Harajuku is? 
Harajuku is the general name of the area in Tokyo. It is from Harajuku Station to the Omotesando area. Takeshita Street is famous street. As we see the history in Harajuku, it goes back a long way. Actually I don't know the history before I was born, but for example, a lot of young people were crowded at Takeshita street in 1980 because many shops dealing with apparel, talents' goods, etc. gathered shops, gathered there intensively. In 1990, some import shops came at Omotesando, and this area was called Ura-Harajuku. 

Read, See and Know Harajuku with a book "Hara-J (Harajuku-Joshi)" 
There is a book I recommend for you. The book's name is "Hara-J". There are many snap shots in the book and even if you don't know Japanese words, you could enjoy and know about Harajuku's atomosphere. Watch a video immediately below. It showed all pages of this book! 

Skimming thru "Haraj"


Do you need more? You can see more photos and videos at Hara-J Official Website.

What is Kuroko's Basketball?
Kuroko's Basketball is Japanese anime (manga) known as Kuroko no Basuke (黒子のバスケ) or Kurobasu, which began serialization in Weekly Shonen Jump in December 2008. Why is this anime so popular? I need to say nothing. You will understand if you watch it. (you can watch at AnimeFave with English sub!)

What is BEAMS? 
BEAMS is an apparel chain store begun in 1976 in Japan. Usually they import products from overseas and sell them in Japan. I often visited the store in Amemura in Namba, Osaka. There were many cool items, but it was little bit expensive for me in that days...

Do you know Yukata?

A yukata is a casual summer kimono usually made of cotton.
People wearing yukata are a common sight in Japan at fireworks displays,
bon-odori festivals, and other summer events.
Yukata is much easier to wear than Kimono.
So young people love to wear in summer holiday.
The yukata is also frequently worn after bathing at traditional Japanese inns called Ryokan.
Way of wearing between man and woman.
We wont wear sneakers or shoes with Yukata.
Normally Geta which is made of wooden sandals.
If you see people in Japan its a good chance to find with yukata.
Also in TV program films or even in animation or comics.
Recently yukata is very fashionable.

If you have chance to work in Japanese store or restaurant good opportunity to wear yukata.
Or you can present as a gift who loves Japan or Japanese friend.
Please becareful you need decent size.

I am looking forward to go firework festival.
