Lacking inspiration for a Christmas present? The writing of 76actu can help you! Like an Advent calendar, every day we give you ideas for original and local gifts to put under the tree. Today, we stop at two thrift stores in downtown Rouen (Seine-Maritime).
Streetwear et sportswear
And we start with Drop Vintage Club. Established since December 22, 2023 on rue Ganterie in Rouen, this brand does not want to do second-hand shopping like the others. Specialized only in streetwear and sportswear from the 90s to 2000sthere are sweatshirts, windbreaker jackets and even basketball and baseball jerseys.
A unique approach to Rouen. “Often, we just find a small dedicated stand [au streetwear] in large, very diverse second-hand stores,” the store manager explained to us a year ago.
Cheap clothes
A few steps away, we find Monstera Frip, on rue Beauvoisine. Open since June 2024, the boutique offers a variety of men’s and women’s clothing at a low price.
Five euros for a t-shirt, ten euros for pants, fifteen euros for jackets… “There are a lot of second-hand stores in Rouen where the prices are very high. So I wanted to open one that didn’t cost too much,” one of the thrift store managers explained to us at the time of the opening.
In short, there is something to do second-hand in Rouen. Unique and trendy clothing, down to low prices.
