Neighborhood Technical Apparel (more commonly known as Neighborhood) is a Japanese street label that takes influences from punk and street culture and fuses it in their limited edition graphic t-shirts and selvage denim. As of lately, their denim has been the biggest hype in the Asian street fashion scene, spreading to North America. Starting at around $300 retail price and being resold at reseller shops and online for as much as $1500, these jeans seem to validate themselves on the market.

Created by Shinsuke Takizawa, Neighborhood first began in 1994. Their flagship stores can be found in Harajuku, Shibuya, Tokyo and last month their first flagship store out of Japan opened in Central, Hong Kong. Licensed retailers are located around the world as well, in Singapore, Australia, London, Italy, New York, Los Angeles, Boston, and Hawaii.
