HIDARI Physical Store
Visit HIDARI’s Store in Gifu, Japan
Since 2018, HIDARI has been delivering high-quality tools for left-handed people through our online shop. In Japan, we’re known as 「左ききの道具店」 (Hidarikiki no Dōguten). In 2023, we opened a small physical store in Kakamigahara, Gifu Prefecture.
Look for the white curtain featuring our polar bear mascot 🐻❄️—a nod to the legend that polar bears are naturally left-handed. It marks the entrance and warmly welcomes all visitors.
Inside the Store
Step into a space designed with left-handed life in mind:
Try-it corner where you can test out left-handed and ambidextrous tools
Colorful stationery and kitchenware lined along the walls
A cozy selection of planners, mugs, books, and everyday essentials
