The Best Vintage Shops of NYC

There are many reasons that New York City is considered one of the greatest cities in the world, and the easy access to fashion is a part of the reason why. In fact, the city has a large array of vintage shops in which you find some great deals on designer/one of a kind items.Check out Time Out NY's  favorite vintage shops throughout the city.

Vintage Thrift Shop

Shopping
Mon–Fri 10:30am–8pm, Sun 11am–7pm
286 Third Ave (between 22nd and 23rd Sts) Gramercy/Flatiron
There’s a rotating mix of astoundingly well-preserved designer and nonvintage clothing here, as well as one-of-a-kind housewares, shoes and accessories…

 

Housing Works Thrift Store

Shopping
Mon–Sat 11am–7pm, Sun 12–5pm
130 Crosby St (between Prince & W Houston Sts) Soho
It's cool to donate your old duds and furniture to Housing Works, so the shelter-oriented charity's thrift stores are among the city's best. The prices aren't the lowest, but the stock is quality…

Cheap Jack's

Shopping
Mon–Sat 11am–8pm, Sun noon–7pm
303 Fifth Ave (at 31st St) Midtown East
Some people pass this store off as too “costumey,” but you just need to know how to buy here. Avoid the fringed suede vests (too ’70s) and poofy prom dresses (too ’80s) and you can land plenty of interesting pieces…
