Goldwin to open first own-brand store

Japanese outdoor apparel retailer Goldwin is set to open its first independent flagship store in Tokyo. The Marunouchi business district launch, scheduled for November 8, will introduce the brand’s new selection of high-performance sportswear, lifestyle and ski apparel. Highlighted will be two of Goldwin’s best-selling products, the Arris Jacket and the Hooded Spur Gore-Tex Down Coat.

A Goldwin press release stated that the flagship will allow the firm “to expand its vision and introduce new values, creating a platform where sports and lifestyle merge”.

Goldwin’s products have previously been made available at The North Face retail stores in Japan and other specialty stores worldwide.

The company intends to follow this launch with more flagships to open in international locations.
