Melbourne Denim Map +

This map is a bit crowded, and should probably split into three (Melbourne, Fitzroy, South Yarra), but I'm a bit lazy. Here's the My Map.

Ok, this map is just Kojima, Okayama and Kurashiki are further north.

I'll be moving the other maps across to the blog like this map. Please post updates/corrections as comments.

Kurashiki Jeans Map

This Jeans map is from the Krashjapan web site (illustration by Yosuke Hasegawa).

I've cut the map out so you can print it.

Krashjapan is a free magazine for the Kurashiki region. All the content on the web site is available in English. I found the stories and interviews interesting and surprisingly moving... worth reading if you have the time.

Denim-Rakuten-style Shops (maps)

Google have release some new map building tools, so I compiled a list of Denim and Flight Jacket stores in Japan, and plotted them on a map.

Denim-Rakuten-style Shops

There are actually two pages of stores (scroll the left panel to the bottom)... so unfortunately you can't view them all at once.

I'll be using the map as the basis of a more focused map of shops to visit next month.

One interesting observation is that there are a couple of stores in Narita (near the airport), so if your flight is delayed or if you only have a few hours transit at the airport you could visit these stores instead of taking the massive hike to Tokyo.

Denim Maps

I've updated the Denim Maps.

The map areas are much bigger now.

I'll be changing the icons, and I've created a form where you can submit map updates.

If anyone can help placing the following stores:

Porkys
Pure Blue Japan
Any other Rakuten style stores

I'll be in Osaka in May, so I'll try to make a decent map of Osaka for everyone.
You can submit Osaka stores now. It'd help me get started.
