    Cool place to come in out of the heat and grab some vintage stuff, if that's your thing.

    Love the green

    Nice selection but kinda pricey. There's a women's, men's and children's section. The store is organized based on these categories along with color, and clothing type. They have shoes, belts and bags displayed throughout the store so don't forget to look beyond the clothing racks! I found the cutest pastel sequin/beaded coin purse!! Street parking on South Congress or find parking somewhere in the neighborhood nearby. The exterior is a beautiful green. I am obsessed.

    This is a fun little vintage store around the corner from the main section of shops on South Congress. The woman working there was especially nice and greeted us when we walked in the door. About half of the store is setup with clothing. The other half is furniture and home accessories. When I was there, they had an knock-off Eames chair that looked pretty good. I didn't see the ottoman though. This is definitely one of those places where you have to check back from time to time as I suspect the display varies a great deal from one month to the next.

    70s oxfords!

    So it seems like this used to be a part apparel part furniture store? I think they've stopped selling furniture and decided to just sell awesome vintage clothes!! So my style isn't the super hip, vintage type. In all honesty, I'm a bit too preppy to be here but I can really appreciate a unique piece of clothing. I've been here a few times now and I've managed to pick up a couple of things every time. The first time, I got a black, leather mini skirt, and a pair of suede shoes. And this time around, I got myself a crushed velvet long sleeve body con and a pair of 70s oxfords. They are all very unique pieces in my closet and look forward to shopping here every time I'm in Austin!! Thanks for the great prices and discounts. I'll be back for more :D

    Clear phones from the '80s, slick let's-do-coke-on-the-mirrored table from the '70s, and edited bric-a-brac fill this modest furniture store. It's so enticing! If I could design my house with vintage/futuristic furniture from the '60s - you know, that Crayola colored Herman Miller knockoff stuff - I would blow so much money here. This is absolutely Austin's best vintage furniture... at least that I know of. The prices are a bit hefty, but if you like home decor it's worth a peek to stop by.

Oscar helped me with jeans while another staff member helped my bf with tshirts (didn't catch his name). I told Oscar my dilemma with my 1955 jeans, and he recommended boncoura work pants to me. I think they're a new product and were made in partnership with self edge? I don't remember all the details beyond him telling me he fits women in these pants because they surprisingly fit women really well. I tried them on...and yeah. I walked out of the store with them and wore them the rest of the day lol. Everyone was super helpful while we shopped and tried clothes on. I think I actually had a better experience here than at the SF store. They have a parking lot out front, so the store is really accessible. If you're looking for raw denim, visit self edge. If you're looking for premium, well-made basics or you're into working menswear from Japan, go to self edge. They're knowledgeable, and they're passionate about the industry and products they carry. I'm glad self edge opened a store in Austin bc I'm pretty sure there isn't another store here that is within this market of clothing. I'll definitely come back as soon as my budget allows!

I came in needing some business casual shirts. Michael laid out (literally) several great options and discussed sizes. Once he found what I needed, he continued to suggest items that might be a fit. This was not a pushy sales job to send me out with just anything. He seemed to genuinely care about my needs. Also left me to wander when that is what I wanted to do. I picked out a couple of nice shirts, but I want to come back when I have more time, as the selection is quite varied, with lots of options - from very casual to dress and outerwear. Michael got me a water, asked about my needs - it was such great and friendly service. Others should come and learn about taking care of customers. At one point a couple came in, and someone needed something Billy Reid did not carry. Michael directed him to a specific shop that would meet his needs. Truly helpful. Oh - and the place was immaculate and well lit. I will definitely be back!
