Other People's Clothes

About Other People's Clothes

Troutman Street in Bushwick is the neighborhood's main arts corridor — galleries, studios, and creative businesses line the block in a way that makes it unlike almost any other commercial street in Brooklyn. Other People's Clothes fits naturally into this environment, operating as a buy/sell/trade boutique with a genuine curatorial perspective rather than the anything-goes volume approach of the area's warehouse-style shops.

The aesthetic focus is Y2K and contemporary vintage, executed with a level of taste that elevates the shop above the increasingly crowded field of Y2K-focused vintage boutiques. The buying team understands the difference between pieces that represent the era well and pieces that are simply old — they accept the former and pass on the latter, which keeps the floor consistently rewarding. Expect velour tracksuits in excellent condition, early 2000s designer labels alongside more elevated pieces, vintage denim in cuts that defined early-2000s fashion, and logo-forward sportswear that has driven vintage prices upward across the market.

The shop also carries some genuinely high-end vintage — designer pieces from the 80s and 90s that require more discerning buyers to appreciate. Finding a vintage Helmut Lang or early Prada piece here isn't common but isn't impossible, and when those pieces show up they're priced below what you'd pay at a dedicated designer resale boutique.

As a selling destination, Other People's Clothes is selective but fair. They're looking for pieces that fit their aesthetic, and store credit is generous relative to cash. The Troutman Street location is walkable from the Jefferson Street L stop and sits near Big Reuse (about a block along at 378 Troutman) — making a Troutman Street double-header a natural Bushwick thrift itinerary.
