They've got a tiny store in the basement of a building at King and Erb, but it's a gem for finding…read morecheap, but current second-hand clothes. For students who love thrift shopping, but find it hard to find something for them each time, this store should leave you satisfied every time. Their prices are really fair as well, usually ranging between $10-$20 for an item of clothing. As an example, I've see ASOS shorts go for $16 (which could be 2-3 times as much originally) and an Aritzia winter coat go for $150 (originally $300+). They often have brands you'll recognize like Zara, American Apparel, Aritzia, Urban Outfitters, etc. and they post their new arrivals on Instagram, but since they don't hold new arrivals those clothes can get snatched up within the day. They also sell accessories like sunglasses, atlas watches, scarves, and necklaces. The store itself is really nice and quaint. It's got an industrial style with brick walls and wooden furnishings. They also have a change room and one person working to help you out.

3.5. Quaint little consignment shop with selections for men and women. Prices are reasonable, and…read moresometimes you can get quite a steal. There's a lot of H&M and Forever 21 finds (it is a university town), but you'll also see nicer brands like BDG or Guess. I'm a little disappointed there's less vintage pieces that weren't large. However, they do a really good job of creating a cool mood through their displays and decor and indie music - even the plainest tank can catch your eye. Overall, a cute spot to stop by if you're in the area. Support sustainable local shops!

They have a great number of one-of-a-kind gifts and neat handmade items. The store is located in the basement of another store, so you have to keep an eye out for it. The staff were really helpful and friendly, and had no problem directing me to the items I was looking for (and I'm a guy, so it's not like I know what I'm doing when I go to a place like this). We were able to find a tote bag locally made by Care.e.on Bags at a great price. Thanks again for all of your help!

Absolutely amazing! Quality and service that cannot be beat. Although I'm a few months late on my…read morereview, Neil was incredible in an emergency situation. My daughter and I needed to attend a German event, and my daughter discovered her Dirndl no longer fit and we only had a week until our event. I found Trachten-Quelle online. We sent a message and Neil responded quickly. Once we ordered, I received a call from Neil to confirm proper fit. Neil was gracious enough to send 2 different dresses, to make sure we would have what we needed in time and return to the other at a later date. We were so impressed with the service and doubly happy with the quality of the dress. I would highly recommend these folks in a heartbeat. (oder macht schnell) Vielen Dank und gute arbeit! Tschuss!

It's a smaller shop, but everything is kept really organized and neat (it's even got "themed" areas, so things are placed similarly for whatever your taste). The prices are higher than other gift-type shops, but the products are so unique and well-made, it's worth the extra few dollars. I browsed around on my own, but the woman working made sure to be available if I needed any help- and I'm sure she would be awesome at helping narrow down what you're looking for if you aren't quite sure. Lots of variety, and ample parking behind the shop. I definitely will be back!!

The other side of the wall had streetwear. There were a few stakeboards near the front but I wasn't sure if they were for sale. It turns out the target audience is mainly teenagers. Well this store is not for me. Out I go! But not before I get some info and photos for a review. I am a reviewer after all and I can't waste a store visit! The staff member was courteous and helpful. Prices are reasonable. There are so very many sneakers on display! There is even a game machine similar to those where you try to grab a plushie with a claw. In this version, you try to move a big key into a keyhole to receive a sneaker as a prize! This location opened on 2022-10-15. They have a second location in Vaughan. Review 2023-076

But I was so pleasantly surprised in this modern yet classic boutique on the main street. Half of the store is bridal / prom dresses and the other half carries women's clothing, accessories and more. The store is sectioned by colour and I found that very aesthetically pleasing. It was nice to see they carry Canadian / local brands so you are sure to really support local here. The quality of the clothing reflects the price, to me quality speaks volumes. The staff were helpful, masked, and supportive of my choices. I could have spent way longer in the store because each time I walked around I saw something new. They have a cute section of bride themed items so if you're in a bridal party or have a bride in your life, definitely come see the unique items they have here!
