Retail Resale: Three of San Antonio's top resale stores
BY: CARLOS AGUILAR
The Vaulti (1621 N. Main Ave.)
Also known as 210 Vintage on their social media channels, The Vaulti is a buy, sell and trade shop that has become a popular stop for those looking for vintage items. Established in 2017, The Vaulti buys, sells and trades pieces ranging from vintage NBA merchandise, to band T-shirts, to contemporary pieces from Supreme. The shop also regularly holds special $5 sales on weekends, bringing in new pieces collected by employees solely for the sale. The occurrence has become an attraction of its own for The Vaulti, generating lines with customers waiting to sort through the piles of clothes available at a bargain price
The Come Up (607 W. Hildebrand Ave.)
“Curated vintage fits for all,” is how The Come Up’s Instagram page describes their approach to the fashion market in San Antonio. Dealing mostly with ‘80s and ‘90s pieces, every element to The Come Up helps establish its identity as a vintage collector’s haven. All the way from the store’s inconspicuous exterior design, to the plethora of classical pieces on shelves and clothing racks that bring The Come Up to life.
True North (332 W. Sunset Road # 7)
Despite being established just less than a year ago, True North’s implementation into San Antonio’s streetwear culture has been one of great success. Made up entirely of some of fashion’s biggest brands including Supreme and Off-White, True North fits right in with any other top high-end resale outlet. The store’s buzz and attention has generated interest from various celebrities and social media personalities, occasionally popping up on the store’s Instagram page.
