  • Loft is popular variety store that sells a ton of interesting products. From home goods to beauty items, from traditional Japanese products to super cute character goods, they have everything! They are most known for their stationery stuff but trust me, you'll want everything from the store! It took me so long to be able to narrow down to 10, because I can't resist buying everything I see everytime I go! Don't say I didn't warn you that Loft is seriously dangerous for your wallet :P
    LOFT has many locations all over Japan, the Shibuya location is one of the largest (if not THE largest), but each location has its own strength in terms of stock. For example, I find that the character goods section is rather small at Shibuya, I have seen better stock at certain other locations.
    The store footage of this video was filmed at the Shibuya location
    Address: 21-1 Udagawacho, Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, 150-0042
    List of products mentioned - most items have a big range of price due to Loft’s large variety for each type of item:
    1. Cookware and dining ware (price varies greatly depending on what you are getting, you can find things for as low as 100 yen and as high as 30000 yen or more. Don’t worry, they carry plenty of affordable items but also many high-end ones)
    2. Bento & accessories (bento boxes are generally around 2000 yen, but of course they carry less and more expensive ones too. Accessories are pretty affordable, generally between 300-1000 yen)
    3. Handkerchief (price varies, generally between 500-2000 yen)
    4. Small leather goods (generally between 2500-5000 yen, there are fancier and more expensive ones too)
    5. Character goods (depends on what you get, but generally between 500-3000 yen)
    6. Mug-hanging characters (blind boxes usually cost between 300-600 yen)
    7. Massage tools (manual small tools usually cost 1000-2000 yen, large electric gadgets can cost 20000 yen or more)
    8. Steam Cream (small size: 900-1000 yen; regular size: 1200 yen; sets & sunscreen version: 2300-3000 yen)
    9. Stickers & stamps (generally between 100-1000 yen)
    10. Notebooks (generally between 300-1000 yen)

    This video was probably the most difficult to do because it was extremely difficult to narrow down to only 10 things. It's just way too tempting to buy EVERYTHING when I go to Loft. I hope this video can help you "save" some money so you only target certain things (or maybe make you spend even more lol), because if you wander aimlessly in the store, you could go bankrupt in a day! 😅😆😂Anyway, I'm happy to finally uploading this since I've been promising a Loft top 10 for a while, and hope you guys like it!

    this store really is dangerous! I visited it back in July as part of my trip and I spent like 2 hours walking around JUST on the stationary section of Loft making sure I had everything that I wanted to take home with me. My bank account definitely felt that impact LMAO!!!!!! I love the store, it's so amazing and addicting!!! I can't wait to go back and stress my bank account once again in the winter!

    Loft is super convenient. It is where I bought most of the gifts from stationary, phone covers, hand bags, etc. Most were snoopy themed so maybe they had a collaboration at the time. Got some of those Fuchiko on the cup also. If your pressed for time and want to get excellent gifts yep Loft is the place to go.
