Koga City in Ibaraki Prefecture is about an hour's drive from central Tokyo. This is where the "Freaks Store" was born and where the main store is still located. I visited the main store on September 12 to see its renewal, and was blown away by the excitement.

On the opening day, there was a long line before the store opened.
The restaurant's name is a bold move, incorporating the word "The Camp" into the name, and it has changed so much that one would think it was the same restaurant!

In the back of the restaurant, there is a relaxing space with an American feel.
In this renewal, while maintaining the "conveying the richness of America" axis that the Freaks Store has pursued, the products are divided into various concepts and lined up side by side. There is camping, fashion, furniture, and books.

On the opening day, there was also a silkscreening workshop by "WESTOVERALLS" led by Tatsumasa Onuki, and an event where visitors could customize a cotton beanie from "A LOVE MOVEMENT" from LA.
The display is rather cluttered, but this is definitely intentional. For example, there are products in a canoe, and small items that you have never seen before are placed in the little crevices. You can enjoy touring the store as if you were on a treasure hunt.
