SoHo is known for cobblestone streets, luxury storefronts, and some of the biggest names in fashion, but beneath the designer flagships is a completely different shopping scene: one built around secondhand fashion, vintage finds, and pieces with a history.
What makes SoHo’s resale scene unique is the range. In one afternoon, you can browse authenticated luxury handbags and designer archives, hunt for vintage denim and one-of-a-kind jackets, or find contemporary pieces that have been given a second life. Unlike neighborhoods where thrift shopping means digging through endless racks, SoHo’s secondhand stores feel more curated and closer to a fashion archive than a traditional thrift store.
For shoppers who love fashion but want to move away from fast fashion, SoHo offers some of the best opportunities in New York City to find high-quality pieces that already have a story.
Know Before You Go: Store hours, inventory, prices, and available sizes change frequently because most secondhand stores rely on constantly changing collections. Always check current information before visiting.
Lexy’s Route
This route works best as a walking afternoon through SoHo and the surrounding Nolita/Lower Manhattan blocks. Start with luxury resale, move into curated vintage boutiques, and finish with stores where you can spend more time searching for unexpected finds.
The neighborhood is extremely walkable, making it easy to visit multiple stores without needing transportation.
Start at What Goes Around Comes Around on Wooster Street for luxury vintage, then head east to The Vintage Twin on Broadway. From there, pop around the corner to Housing Works on Crosby Street, continue down Broadway to The ReShop, and finish your loop in Nolita at Aberizk on Spring Street and Thirteen Crosby on Prince Street.
