[quote=Anonymous]I would stick to one, max two pairs of shoes per person; they take up so much space and weight. Choose something you can walk in comfortably. You will not want jeans. I would just pack knee length shorts or very light weight trousers or skirts. Lots of bug spray, though; the mosquitoes are intense. For tops, again, aim for lightweight. Many Japanese women still wear long sleeves in the summer for UV protection but always super thin fabric because it will be very hot and very very humid. Japan tends to not air condition as strongly as the US in order to save energy so you’ll only want one warm outfit for the plane. There’s not really a “should” for tourists in Japan; the Japanese tend not to apply their social norms to outsiders.[/quote]
