Tomoyuki Kobayashi founded PHINGERIN in 2008, starting with pyjamas made from high-end shirting and sewn by hand in Japan — a category he chose because a long childhood hospital stay made it the thing that most represented him. The label now runs to full casual collections under a stated concept of relax, light and modern.

How to buy

  1. 01

    We buy and ship it for you

    We haven't verified PHINGERIN's international checkout yet. Honmono can order in Japan on your behalf and forward it to you — one contact, one invoice, no Japanese address needed.

  2. 02

    Use a dedicated proxy service

    A proxy such as Buyee or ZenMarket gives you a Japanese address, buys the item and forwards it. Cheaper than a concierge, but expect forwarding fees, a longer wait and customs on arrival.

  3. 03

    Buy it while in Japan

    Buy direct from the official shop or a Japanese retailer while you're there — tax-free at most stores on presentation of your passport.
