Located just beside Kurashiki Station is the Mitsui Outlet Park Kurashiki, an outlet shopping complex with over 120 foreign and Japanese brands. The largest outlet mall in the Chugoku area in Japan, you can find brands like Nike, Adidas, Gap, Under Armour, T-fal, and more. Even if you’re not usually a shopper on trips, it’s worth taking a look at least, as you never know when a good deal might catch your eye. You can find clothing, shoes, watches, kitchenware, and more at this outlet mall.
For those unaware, outlet shops are typically branded good shops that sell off-season or products from an old catalog that is no longer available at regular shops. This means that you can get brand-new items from these brand name shops at a lower price, as many of these are priced at clearance prices to go. Tax-free services are also available, meaning you can get an instant refund on your purchase, as long as you are a foreign tourist and bring your passport along.
