The thrill of scouring through racks and finding something special is unmatched. The best part is doing YOUR part to be kinder to the planet 🌏 Here is a roundup of our favourite thrift shops that you need to explore 🎀
Vixen Vintage Boutique
Tāmaki Makaurau | Auckland
There is no way to explain Vixen Vintage other than cool. Located on iconic Karangahape Road (K Road), the store is well organised - it’s racks on racks on RACKS. Head over to their IG to see some Western-style inspo, it's giving Bella Hadid eating pizza on the streets of NYC mixed with rugged cowboy charm.
Again & Again
Kirikiriroa | Hamilton
A local favourite (to those in the mighty Waikato 💪), Again & Again is known for its carefully curated range of pre-loved clothing. I’m always keeping an eye out for their IG because that’s where they announce their drops - and boy, do they serve 👏🏻 More than just a consignment store, their staff are always super smiley, making every visit special.
Spacesuit
Te Whanganui-a-Tara | Wellington
Self-proclaimed as the “best little retro store” - but trust us, when we say it really is THAT good. If you’re a fan of 90s fashion, you’re in for an absolute treat. Spacesuit is stocked with the best vintage and retro imports that span decades; a vintage paradise, you could say!
Nifty
Ōtautahi | Christchurch
Started from humble beginnings in a flea market, Nifty has since blossomed into a beloved consignment store. Make sure to follow them on IG for the latest events, store updates and their iconic Pride Flea (dress to impress in real life!). Pop in and see what thrifting is all about - you definitely can’t miss it, the store’s signature pink building stands out!
Give clothing a second life and support a circular fashion economy! It’s the best way to find a rare or designer piece at a fraction of the price. Whatever you’re after, these places are a great way to start your shopping adventure.
