Vancouver-based company Kit and Ace announced Monday that it will open a pop-up shop in Tokyo, the first retail location from the company to open in Japan.

The pop-up is slated to open on November 20, 2015 in the Koyano Building in Tokyo’s fashionable Nakameguro district. Kit and Ace’s popular Technical Cashmere products will be available in the pop-up in addition to a curated selection of the company’s product offering.
 
“We’re excited to enter the Asian market and introduce our brand to customers on this side of the Pacific,” said JJ Wilson, Co-Founder and Head of Brand at Kit and Ace. “Nakame is a cultural and fashion-forward area – it’s a hot spot for Tokyo locals who appreciate luxury and comfort. This is where we want to be.”
