Nike Flagship Store Tokyo

Back in Tokyo again. Checked out the opening event for Nike's newest flagship store in Harajuku. The expansive 3-level retail space, designed by famed interior design firm Wonderwall, features a "chandelier" of over 400 shoes, and the "Footwear Wall", created from the soles of 1600 shoes. Included are a Runner's Studio, which helps runners analyze their strides, a NikeID Studio for custom footwear, and a Nike Bootroom, which specializes in fitting soccer boots. It was really great to run into a lot of my old Nike Japan colleagues and catch up with them. Congrats on the new store!
