Specifically, I visited Melbourne south wharf store and there was a ton of grey hoodies, running tanks/vests.

No idea on the price (that would be way too helpful)…but as the store has a store wide 25% off sale, there would be some bargains.

I'm incredibly lucky to have secured a Charity position to run Tokyo in 2027...I'm so excited. My question is 8 months in advance, but I'm a planner.

I've been reading lots of posts from this year's marathon on what a chaotic mess was in trying to procure merch....it seems that the pre-order collection had a queue of an hour, without pre-order all the jackets were getting snapped up, merch is available at Asics flagship stores - though the range wasn't as extensive.

I have a few questions for those that were there this year:

1. When did Tokyo Marathon merch hit the Asics stores in Ginza, Shinjuku or Harajuku? (I'll be in Tokyo a week before the race and want to get in early)
2. Posts have said that the merch range was low in the Asics stores compared to the expo...but all I'm really after is the jacket. Were all the colorways of the jacket available at least?
3. If you pre-order the shirt, is this provided at Bib pickup? Or do you need to go through the pre-order line to get the tee? (sounds like an obvious question now that I'm reading it)
4. If you are a One Tokyo member and order the special member jacket, how do you collect this?? (The same nightmarish pre-order line at the expo?)

Thanks heaps!
