Need help purchasing capsule wardrobe while in Japan & Korea
Thanks, looking through the list of shops now. Most I've seen so far only have oversized or bold designs, but will keep looking.

Need help purchasing capsule wardrobe while in Japan & Korea
Boat shoes/Loafers: No idea where to buy, though not a critical purchase since I can't find any japan/korea specific brands. Looking for a nice fabric one i can easily wear.
Bomber jacket: No idea where to buy. Thinking of getting one though most jackets i've seen from japan has the big designs which is not my taste, may get in korea. Looking out for either no designs or a plain subtle one with a small logo which i can wear in the office at my seat.
Belt: No idea where to buy. Looking for a black and brown belt, not really picky, just one that won't peel over time.
Watches: Planning on visiting a Yodobashi and Bic Camera to get a decent citizen quartz dress watch in black and brown strap(swappable if possible), maybe a sport watch if there's enough budget (all <15000 yen). Open to other suggestions, pref new tho
Let me know if you guys need any measurements or any other info, any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance.

Need help purchasing capsule wardrobe while in Japan & Korea
Currently shopping more in japan as i'm not a big fan of the oversized trend in korean and I've read that japan's quality is slightly better, but am open to buy in korea if the quality and fit is good. Rn I'm confirmed to visit iron heart osaka for most of my stuff, gotemba(just visiting), hinoya and Beams japan.
Below here is a list of stuff which i plan on getting and where i will get them, will update as i go along
Polos: No idea where to buy. Looking for something better than uniqlo ideally. Been wearing pique polo, but am open to try other fabrics. Don't like the feeling of dri-fit tho.
T-Shirt: Open to suggestions, tho currently looking at loopwheel shirts from iron heart osaka since i'm already heading there and maybe #FFFFFFT. Looking for plain cotton white, black, navy and grey t-shirts that have good fit. No relaxed or oversized fits.
Jeans: A dark wash and grey jeans (maybe also black)from Iron heart Osaka and maybe hinoya in ueno if i can't find a good fit. Only looking at seldvge, open to other brands if they offer fits for big butts.
Chinos: Open to suggestions, tho currently getting at Iron heart Osaka also. Getting a navy, khaki, olive, and maybe grey.
Chino shorts: No idea where to buy. Looking for navy and khakl, maybe grey also.
Socks: Getting in korea, tho no specific store in mind yet. Heard good things about their socks.
White leather sneaker: Onitsuka tiger nippon made lawnship from tokyo. I'm more into stan smiths rather than air force 1 design, open to other brands tho. Main criteria is must be all white with no designs on the sides(ventillation holes still acceptable) and must be durable.
