Our Legacy has opened a store in Tokyo. Our Legacy Tokyo, in Daikanyama, is "now open", the Stockholm label posted on Sunday afternoon Japan time, with 16 photographs of the space by Robert Nilsson and store hours of 11am to 7pm, seven days a week. The only Tokyo address on the label's stores page is still the shop-in-shop on the second floor of PARCO Shibuya, which opened on June 13 last year. The post gives no street address, and ourlegacy.com's store list didn't carry the new shop on Sunday; FASHIONSNAP and WWD Japan give it as 11-21 Sarugakucho, Shibuya-ku, on the second floor, with a phone number, 03-6822-8505, and FASHIONSNAP says entry runs on online numbered tickets when it's busy.

The building is from 1969 and the space was once an apartment. The caption describes a maze-like location that blurs the boundaries between a private residence, a gallery and a retail space, designed by Cristopher Nying, one of the three founders, together with Profan, which the label calls its long-term partner, and says the store preserves the brutalist character of the building. In the photos that is raw concrete ceilings over pale wood floors, strip lights slotted between timber battens, mirrored panels, a corrugated amber wall, and sheer curtains over windows that look out on the neighbourhood's low rooftops.

Allmoge meets punk

What makes it more than a shop is what's in the cabinets. At the centre of the interior, Our Legacy says, is an extensive collection of Scandinavian utilitarian folk objects and furniture from the 17th and 18th centuries, known in Sweden as allmoge; in the photos, worn wooden chairs, wooden vessels and carved boxes in glass vitrines. Nying's curation draws a line between those and Japanese craftsmanship, then sets both against the Swedish punk of the 1970s and 80s. Swedish and Norwegian folk costumes upcycled with patches, studs and pins hang next to vintage leather jackets and early Swedish punk fanzines, which the label reads as folk culture and counterculture sharing one expression.

The label had been showing the collection off before the doors opened. A post on Friday went through the catalogue it made for the store, a case study and inventory of the objects, artworks and printed matter chosen for it, which it says materialises the ideas and references that form the fabric of Our Legacy in the absence of its clothes: a 1986 first-store sign from 118 Second Läder in Sweden, a Dala horse and a Dala pig, a 1978 fanzine called Spunk, a 20th-century Norwegian folk costume, upcycled. On Saturday it added two works by Tobias Bradford, a Swedish artist based between London and Stockholm, titled Third Person and Oro // Worry, both from this year, chosen to heighten the domestic feel of a space set in a former apartment.

The clothes, and the WORK SHOP

The clothes are there too, on steel rails by the windows: the label's dark denim, leather trousers, jackets and a printed tank. One section is given to OUR LEGACY WORK SHOP, the label's project in which its atelier re-engineers residual Our Legacy fabrics, turning deadstock into new pieces. Ourlegacy.com describes the PARCO shop-in-shop as a curated presentation of its wide-ranging lineup and a more immersive expression of its universe; in Daikanyama, on the evidence of the photos, the objects get as much room as the clothes.

Our read

Seventeen months ago Our Legacy's only shop of its own in Tokyo was a floor of PARCO; now it also has a converted apartment in Daikanyama with cabinets of folk objects. That isn't the usual second-store move, which is a bigger box, and it reads to us as a label that would rather be visited than passed. What's still open: Our Legacy's own post and stores page still carry no address or phone number (the Japanese press has both), there's no word on whether the WORK SHOP pieces are exclusive to Tokyo, and nothing on how long the Bradford works stay up. We'll add the details when Our Legacy lists the store.

Correction: An earlier version of this story said the store's address had not been announced; FASHIONSNAP and WWD Japan published it on November 7 and 8: 11-21 Sarugakucho, Shibuya-ku, second floor. Our Legacy's own post and stores page still don't carry it.
