I brought 230k yen, came back with 68k yen for my 6 days trip. Hotel is 27500 yen. I ate one McDonalds breakfast meal, one proper sashimi meal that cost about 3750yen for two, the rest of the time eating curry rice or ramen that cost between 390yen to 700yen. Bought my toys, bought two Agnes B bags, bought two Burberry Black Label t-shirts, snacks etc... transportation covered by JR pass.

Yes. The T shirt is designed by some sportsman (think Mountain biking or cycling).

I have tried to search for it on internet but can't find it.

And the shop is their North Face flag ship store

got a pic? ehhe
i wna buy a northface down jacket too for my next winter

Unfortunately I can't find a pic even in their websites.

It's a T shirt with NorthFace on top, with some other words, and the bottom half of the T shirt is made of square clothes of different colour stitched together... or something along the line.

If you are free, go there and ask haha. The shop I was at is in harajuku walking down towards the Meiji Shrine direction (If Meiji Shrine is at 12 o'clock direction; the store is somewhere at 845 O'clock down the junction (Along the Chamamo Cat cafe side)

EDIT to add:
