If you are ever stuck thinking of a gift for me, a pair of unique striped socks is always a good bet! I especially like mixes of unique colors of designs. I've only bought a few things from here so it'd be a great place!
It's also good for finding hard-to-find J-clothing items, such as Tabi socks, and many fishnet and lace gloves. An awesome shop!
