We heard from the shop that boutique “Sherlock Holmes” is scheduled to open on November 1 inside the main building of “Laporte,” the shopping mall directly connected to JR Ashiya Station!

“Sherlock Holmes” is a boutique that carries stylish shoes designed for bunions, along with one-of-a-kind clothing, bags, shawls, and jewelry by individual artists.
Until now, the shop had only opened locations inside hotels such as Hotel Okura and Hotel New Otani, but this will apparently be its first location outside a hotel.

↑ Exterior of the Laporte main building. It’s expected to open in a tenant space on the 2nd floor, beyond the escalator toward the back of the building, accessible from JR Ashiya Station via the pedestrian deck.
Here’s the map for the Laporte main building↓
The address is 4-1 Funadocho, Ashiya City, Hyogo Prefecture.
