About

NOT CONVENTIONAL, on Shikoku, trades from Higashigawacho 520 in Nakagyo Ward, Kyoto 604-8046, a boutique with a following built on its own terms. First-time visitors can expect a small-scale operation where the stock and the setting carry the character, rather than anything on a department-store scale.

A 4.7 out of 5 average across 93 reviews places it near the top of its range, and the volume of feedback suggests customers keep coming back. The website at http://www.not-conventional.com/ carries the shop's own information for anyone planning a visit.

Getting there from the main towns on Shikoku takes a little planning, since Matsuyama, Takamatsu, Kochi and Tokushima are all linked onward by rail and road, and Kyoto sits beyond the island itself. Trains link Japan's four main islands through tunnels and bridges, while ferries and aircraft serve the smaller ones, so the journey can be made by more than one route.

The Higashigawacho address places the shop within Kyoto's Nakagyo Ward, a central district of the old capital. Japan has four distinct seasons, with hot humid summers and cold winters that bring snow in the north, so what you pack depends heavily on when you travel.
