Where to find Stockholm's best vintage and second-hand shops

Shop with a clear conscience

Popular among vintage aficionados, this store's more than 200 square metres are packed with clothes, accessories, bags and shoes. The well-organised shelves with clothes from labels such as YSL, Gucci and Moschino are particularly hard to stay away from. What's more, all profits go to charity.

Well-stocked vintage mecca

Beyond Retro was an immediate success when it came to Stockholm and today it's a classic shopping destination, on a par with some of the largest etablished chains in the country. Their huge stores are filled to bursting with vintage and second-hand clothes and accessories and sharp eyes can usually spot the odd well-known blogger, as well as Stockholm fashion victims, browsing here.
