Clothing shopping in Seattle

  1. A

    Niketown

    The huge Niketown has its roots in the Northwest – it was founded by Phil Knight in Eugene, Oregon. The store sells all kinds of Nike clothing, shoes and accessories, and acts as a sort of museum for the company’s marketing campaign, with posters and quotations from some of its endorsement stars covering the walls.

    Crossroads Trading Co

    This used-clothing store is less expensive than Red Light but also generally less hipster-chic, which is nice if you just want to shop for basics without having some too-cool clerk stare down her nose at your khaki slacks. There’s another branch in the U District.

  3. Buffalo Exchange

    This secondhand clothing store is comfortable to browse in, but can be hit-and-miss in terms of good finds. Some of its merchandise is on the square side – which doesn’t, ironically, make it any easier to sell your old clothes here: staff are notoriously picky.

    Red Light

    Red Light carries stylish, painstakingly selected vintage clothing, organized by decade or sometimes by color. It’s a cool shop…maybe too cool. Rest assured, you will be judged by your purchases. There’s also a branch in the U District.

    Frock Shop

    Look for the sign advertising the ‘Phinney Ave Beauty Salon’ – that’s what this building used to be, and it maintains the original atmosphere. Get gorgeous in style with flirty little dresses you can try on in front of movie-star mirrors.

    Aprie

    A small boutique with a well-curated selection of trendy tops, dresses and skinny jeans from brands too hip to list here (I mean, if you don’t know, I’m not gonna tell you). Aprie is a miniparadise for fashionistas.

    Sway and Cake

    This cute little upscale boutique has cute little designer dresses and jeans from hot names like Rag & Bone, Diane von Furstenberg and Helmut Lang. Sales staff are friendly, even if you’re dressed down.

    Brooks Brothers

    This is the undisputed destination for classy men’s clothing in the area. The salespeople are total pros – they greet you at the door, take your measurements and avoid all signs of being pushy.
