What is Japan Squeeze Center?
Located near Takeshita Street in Harajuku, Japan, the Japan Squeeze Center is one of the largest squeezers specialty stores in Japan. It is a popular spot for squeezers lovers to see, touch, and buy squeezers collected from all over the world.

Atmosphere inside the store
Located on the second floor after climbing the stairs of a multi-tenant building, the store has a sparkling Harajuku-like atmosphere. The walls are lined with squeezies, making it look like a treasure chest. There are many popular series that look just like the real thing, such as bread and ice cream, and there are also scented items, making it a fun place to spend time just looking at them.


The appeal of being able to touch and choose
The best feature of this store is that you can actually touch the squeezes before buying them. You can choose the one that suits you best while checking the difference in material and texture, such as sticky, fluffy, and moist. Everyone from small children to adults will be fascinated by the experience.


Limited squeezers and special products
The lineup includes many products designed exclusively for the Harajuku store and products made in collaboration with popular characters. The shop also offers collectible sets and gift bags, making it a great place for collectors and beginners alike to enjoy shopping.


About the crowds
I visited on a weekday at noon. There were no other customers at that time of the day, so I was able to take my time and look at the products. It seems that you can shop calmly.
