An Exhibition Spanning Bicycles, Fashion, Letterpress, and More

Renowned for its excellent urban planning that coexists with the environment, Portland has been selected as "America's Most Livable City" due to its unique city development. Its distinctive culture is increasingly captivating people in Japan.

This is the city that is home to major sports and outdoor brands like NIKE, Columbia Sportswear, and adidas USA, as well as highly creative companies such as "Wieden+Kennedy," the agency behind ads for Google and NIKE. Seven brands from this inspiring locale will visit Japan for a limited engagement at Marché d'Éclat Kanda Manseibashi.

Titled "POP UP Portland in Tokyo 2015," the event will showcase products and culture through keywords such as bicycles, DIY, art, third-wave coffee, farmers' markets, craft beer, food carts, and LGBTQ. The lineup includes bicycle brand "Renovo," fashion accessories from "Archival Clothing," and letterpress printing by "EGG Press," among others. We invite you to experience the Portland lifestyle firsthand during this special occasion.
