Prince Apparel Japan

[joekapa]

Why does Prince sell different apparel in Japan, than they do in either the US, or Europe ? Looking at the following link, the Prince apparel looks FANTASTIC compared to the stuff available for sale on TW.

They need to make velcro adult shoes too.

seems like Prince Japan runs independently since they might have better brand recognition in Japan and still have decent followers in Japan.
Japanese prince items are much better than any other markets. I don't think Prince USA will bring any items or design from Japan but they should do it in my opinion.

Well if they released apparel and shoes like this to the rest of the world, I am sure their sales would skyrocket.

Give us an idea on prices buddy.

Is Prince Japan, really a separate company ? So basically they only bought the naming rights, and do their own thing ?
