Here we go, kids! One last week to shop, say goodbye, and snag some screaming deals. You can finally afford vintage! 😆

Well, friends... After three strange years, it's time to call it a day. Open City Thrift will be closing its doors for good at the end of this month. We will be closed this week and next to start cleaning and moving but will be back open for massive clearance sales the last two weeks of September (details soon). Last day to shop will be October 1st.

Not enough thanks in the world for those who supported our weird little dream and for all the kindness we've received from the community, especially our fellow downtown business owners. We love and will miss you all. ✌️

“The traditional fashion industry’s linear ‘take-make-dispose’ model perpetuates overproduction and has made fashion one of the most environmentally damaging sectors in the global economy. By reusing clothes, we make the most of the natural resources used to produce clothes, divert items from landfill, and give them a second, or even third or fourth, chance.”

"Consumer priorities and preferences have shifted and there’s a greater emphasis on sustainability and value. On top of that, there’s a whole younger generation that doesn’t associate a stigma with thrift at all. They’re leading the charge in embracing secondhand.”

It's not just about buying and selling anymore.
