Clothes
Large sizes are very hard to find in Japan, especially items like shoes, pants, jackets and so on. It is recommended that you bring along enough clothes from Canada as it may be impossible or very expensive to find comfortable clothing of your size in Japan. Personal items such as contact solution, soaps, shampoos, toothpaste, deodorant etc, can be found easily and are relatively inexpensive although more expensive than in Canada. If you are used to a certain brand of item it is recommended that you take that with you as it may be difficulty to locate the same in Japan. If you are taking any prescription medication or require specific items you should bring along a supply to last your stay in Japan.
