The 38 Best Places to Shop for Vintage in Los Angeles

Besides pretty people, perfect weather and palm trees, Los Angeles is known for its superior selection of vintage. We've never met a pair of Levi's denim cut-off shorts that we didn't like and randomly scoring a coveted Chanel backpack or Moschino logo belt on one of our many juice breaks is a common occurrence. Given that our city is brimming with retro shopping havens on just about every corner, our latest edition of Racked 38 is a handy guide to LA's top 38 vintage shops.
From outdoor bazaars like the Rose Bowl Flea and Melrose Trading Post to high-end emporiums like Resurrection and The Way We Wore to cult-favorite stops like Virgo and Scout, we've attempted to cover all bases. Of course, it would be remiss to assume that this hit list is definitive, so let us know in the comments if there's a shop that you'd like to see included in our next update and we'll do our best to deliver.—Natalie Alcala
