Neighborhood

[Climax]

Whats the story of the brand? Owners, clientele, collaborations etc.

And where to buy it online?

[mike lowrey]

www.conceptshop.com.hk

has some stuff, would like to know more too.

[tweeds]

clientele

people who're willing to pay for far-out washes without being too concerned with quality of manufacture. their savage range is scary but if you like that sort of stuff you'll go mad over it.

ultimatestreet has some

grandism

if that link doesn't work, just do an advanced search (titles only) on 'neighborhood': plenty of info on the board already to draw from

some info in this post in particular:

i don't know anything about it other than its a japanese brand that's getting fairly popular in hong kong. people have long moved off of the bape stuff onto stuff like this. HK pop tart edison chen has a store in causeway bay that carries a lot of the stuff. some of the designs are pretty cool, but the price of the stuff is simply ridiculous.

yea the only places i know that sell Neighborhood online are ultimate-street, grandism, and yoox (fall-winter 2006, but i don't believe it is the newest Neighborhood stuff). in LA, you can find it at Union on La Brea.

Neighborhood is related to w)taps. i personally like the Neighborhood denim, some jackets are nice as well, similar to w)taps but a little less basic and a little more out-there (though not as artistic as Undercover or as rocker as Number (n)ine). some t-shirt designs are too out there for me, but one that i have that i like is the Neighborhood x Union (union's reopening) with the printed chains around the neck (similar to Number (n)ine). the quality is very very good, does not fade or stretch, and keeps its dark black color. it's $108, i think non-collaboration Neighborhood t-shirts are in the $80~ range. Neighborhood, along with other Japanese "streetwear" labels like Undercover, Fragment, Head Porter, and Bounty Hunter, are very big in Hong Kong and Singapore. i tend to think of Neighborhood as a bit more streetwear than the others tho.

fragment isnt a clothing label

One of the designers has a blog on Honeyee (all in Japanese though)

I believe they've got their own bike racinig team, and will be releasing tees for that.

They famously did a 35th Superstar with Adidas which brought them to a lot of people's attention outside Japan.

Clothing is excellent quality, my favourite tee has been washed probably 50 times and still looks virtually new.

The Hideout (https://www.hideoutstore.com/catalog/index.php) stocks some stuff.

http://www.cliffedge.co.jp/ has decent selection.

slamjam has a good bit of nbhd stuff:

He isn't just one of the designers, Shinsuke is THE designer = owner.......

Herpsky -

Where did you get that info. from? Pretty sure Fragment is a clothing brand........

[tweeds]

honeyee is pretty cool i never figured what designers like that would blog about... i enjoy reading jean touitou's.

hi...i have a few pairs of neighborhood jeans for sale.....check it out in supermarket or u can email me at [email protected]

[herpsky]

fragment design is a designing office owned by HF

as far as i know they only put out collab items

i.e. they just do the designing for other corporations/stores/clothing labels

[123ok]

nbhd is normally always a hit or miss for me. I haven't been liking most of their tee's lately but I normally like their jackets. You can also get nbhd from www.hideoutstore.com

[teejayess]

It's all so clear to me now. (Don't click if you're in work/school - titties!)

[xcoldricex]

how come none of the smart magazines i buy have spreads like that? haha

the guys over at nbhd also put out a good free magazine in both japanese and english called philosophy.

[sean_]

holy hopping hell someone figure out how to save the last picture on that link, i need that as my background. hot.

[Brooklyn Zoo]

Correct me if I'm wrong but the philosophy mag is produced by W)Taps, not Neighborhood... either way, it's the joint.

[englandmj7]

W)Taps is an affiliate of NBHD and is sold in NHBD's store. The magazine can be found there as well.
