If you're hunting for a Chloe bag in Japan, Gotemba Premium Outlets is one of the best places to find one. The boutique sits in the WEST ZONE high-brand corridor — and on a good day, you can walk out with a classic bag at 30 to 50% off what you'd pay at a department store.
I've wandered through this section of the outlet more times than I can count. What strikes me about Chloe here isn't just the price — it's the selection. Past-season pieces in the brand's signature soft leathers, muted earth tones, and that unmistakable feminine-meets-edgy aesthetic. It's a brand that takes what it calls "the contradictions within women" seriously, and you feel that energy the moment you step inside.

About Chloe: A Quick Brand Background
Chloe was founded in Paris in 1952 by Gaby Aghion, who became one of the pioneers of high-quality ready-to-wear fashion at a time when couture dominated the scene. The brand's DNA has always been about exploring contradictions — feminine but edgy, romantic but not fussy, polished but never stiff.
Karl Lagerfeld took the helm as head designer in the 1970s and helped propel the brand onto the world stage. Since then, designers like Stella McCartney and Phoebe Philo have each left their mark, keeping Chloe perpetually relevant without chasing trends.
One thing that sets Chloe apart from other luxury brands: its commitment to sustainability. From ethically sourced leathers to long-lasting construction, the brand leans into the idea that great fashion shouldn't be disposable. When you pick up a Chloe bag at an outlet, you're getting something built to last.
What's In Store: Bags, Wallets & More
Bags — The Main Draw
This is what most people come for. The bag selection at the Gotemba Chloe outlet typically spans everything from compact crossbody bags to larger totes, in the brand's characteristic soft leathers and earthy color palette — beige, terracotta, ivory, and classic black.
Because outlet stock focuses on past-season pieces, don't expect to find the latest runway drops. What you will find are well-crafted staples at genuinely good prices. The iconic Paddington bag, with its signature padlock hardware, occasionally surfaces here, and when it does, it goes fast. If there's a specific style you're after, calling ahead to ask about current stock is worth doing.
Wallets — Underrated and Worth a Look
People fixate on the bags, but the wallet selection at this boutique deserves attention too. Long wallets, bi-fold styles, and slim card cases all make appearances, often in the same soft hues as the bag collection. These make excellent gifts — and at outlet prices, you're getting a lot of luxury for the money.
Shoes & Apparel — Don't Skip This Section
The boutique carries shoes and apparel too, and this is where some of the best surprise finds happen. Lace sandals, flat mules, and seasonal footwear appear in limited quantities — and when they're discounted, they move quickly. If you're visiting with a full outfit in mind, it's worth browsing all three categories before you decide.

Tax-Free Shopping for International Visitors
International visitors shopping at Gotemba Premium Outlets are eligible for consumption tax exemption (10%). To qualify, bring your passport and make sure your total purchase at the tax-free counter meets the minimum threshold (generally ¥5,000 before tax).
Combined with the outlet discount, this means you could be looking at 40–60% off compared to regular retail pricing in your home country. That's a serious saving on a Chloe bag.
Visitor Reviews
We came specifically for Chloe and were not disappointed. My partner found a shoulder bag in terracotta leather that was about 40% off what it would've cost back home — and that was before the tax-free discount on top. The staff spoke enough English to help us navigate the paperwork. Highly recommend making this a dedicated stop.
I wasn't planning to buy anything, just browse. Walked out with a long wallet. The leather quality is unmistakably Chloe — nothing felt like it was discounted just because it was older stock. The See By Chloé next door is worth checking too if you want something more affordable.
This was my third trip to Gotemba and I always stop at Chloe. The bag selection rotates, so there's usually something new to discover. I've bought a crossbody bag and a pair of sandals on previous visits — both are still going strong years later. Worth every yen.
My wife had been wanting a Chloe wallet for years. We found one in her preferred style and color at Gotemba — about 35% off the Singapore retail price, plus tax-free on top. She's still talking about it. The staff were patient even when the store got busy. Great experience overall.
Interesting experience buying Chloe in Japan — a French brand, bought at a Japanese outlet, with a tax exemption. The prices were genuinely competitive even compared to French outlet stores. The lace sandals I found here were not something I could find back home anymore. Very happy.
I was specifically looking for the Woody bag and didn't find it. The outlet doesn't carry current-season bestsellers, so if you have a specific in-demand model in mind, don't count on it being here.
💡 TIP
Outlet stock is made up of past-season pieces. If you're chasing a specific current-release model, the outlet is a gamble. But for timeless styles in classic colors — which describes most of Chloe's range — you're in the right place.
We visited during Golden Week and the WEST ZONE was very crowded. Inside the Chloe store it was hard to browse comfortably. The staff were doing their best but it was clearly a peak day.
💡 TIP
Golden Week (late April–early May), summer Obon, and the New Year period are the busiest times at Gotemba. For a relaxed Chloe shopping experience, aim for a weekday morning right at opening (10:00 AM). The luxury brand corridor is noticeably quieter before noon.
