Like the set up (sections by decade/item) but i really wish they had a better selection of plus sized items. they need to do better.

You can find just about any sort of outfit here if youre dedicated. There is a great array of choices upstairs that are sorted on racks, and downstairs there is a huge clothing-by-the-pound pile that you can pick through. If youre looking for truly rock bottom prices though, maybe go to Goodwill.

Fun place great price but it freaked me out a bit that the clothes were piled on the floor and we had to wade through them to see what we want. Cool concept but during a pandemic it seemed overwhelming. But overall I loved the variety of things here

A huge selection of vintage clothing in a diverse range of sizes and styles. Lots of great pieces from the 1960s-1990s especially.

The man at the register had the worst attitude. We asked him a question about the pound clothing and all he said was “you have to pay for it”, not even answering our question and leaving us confused. When checking out he didn’t even say a word to us and gave us dirty looks. He should not be working in retail if he can’t even bother have an ounce of kindness. Also everything was wildly overpriced, a plain tee shirt should not be more than 20$…

Fantastic gem of a store. As a man Im always a little disappointed in mens section while thrift shopping with my wife. Well I think this last trip I got more things than here.

Definitely a must go for thrifting found a pair of $200 chelsea boots for $45 and other great finds too.

It’s not often these days you find a vintage clothing shop that actually has cheap prices! Of course, it’s always a bit of luck to find something that fits you, but this place has such a large selection I’m sure men, women, and kids will all find something - from fine threads to costume gear. Even if not, it’s worth a visit to check out the inside...a very funky place!

Had an amazing time! They are very committed to guest safety and it made for a wonderful shopping experience. The range of sizes and styles are phenomenal. My partner is a larger size, and managed to find 2 coats broad enough for him. Cant wait to go back!

This is undoubtedly the most stylish thrift shop I’ve visited. The selection is huge although price is more expensive than other charity shops. The interior is colorful but easy to navigate. Staffs are helpful. I took my Ray Ban off to try on a clothes and forgot it. I thought It’s a no hope to find it in a thrift shop since anyone could have taken it away, but when I asked the staff, they said that they had found it and put it to locker. What a relief.

An awesome experience - dont miss it if youre visiting Cambridge!

Although I miss the by the pound option, I love this place. My kids live it too. Great selections and well maintained.

Fun place, large building full of fairly priced clothing. Parking right in front.

Good selection but crowded and stuff running out of stock

The best for used or vintage clothes in Boston. Color coded so if you find yourself in a situation where you need a super niche item it’s the place to go.Also in Pre Covid Times they had a giant pile of dollar a pound used clothes which was so much fun.

Awesome selection of every category, and well priced vintage clothing! also very clean and well organized, nice in covid times! absolutely a must if you love thrifting!

Its rare to find good stuff

Cool spot for old clothes.

Friendly staff and great clothes selection.

Great thrift store for a wide variety of clothing and accessories. My son drives 30 mins to shop here. He enjoys finding something a bit older and different from the current norm.

Best thrift store ever!!

Funky place with funky threads - great for 🎃 but that aint the only scary thing there. The building is older and the floor seems plank thin in certain spots. If youre scared of the ground giving beneath you, you might want to go elsewhere

Large selection but too overpriced for what it is. You can find better prices elsewhere, not worth it.

The best! If your a youngin and looking for that 80’s look look no further they have it all. They carry all kinds of face masks. I mainly go there for there mens jeans. Levi’s Armani’s CK you name they have the top brand names jeans for under $24.99 I live close but I really need to take advantage of the store that has the best stuff for less. Staff member Marlene is amazing she explained the return items situation to me she was excellent. Thank you

Cool to visit if you’re in the area but on the pricier side of second hand. I’m sure they see a lot of clothes and customers though so a plus is there’s always next time if you don’t leave with something or multiple good finds every time

This is a great clothing store! They have a great variety of clothing and really good prices. This is definitely my favorite clothing store in the greater Boston/Cambridge area!

Competitively priced with a fun atmosphere and wide variety of clothes, a fun place to visit as well as shop

Really amazing place. This place is super trendy with their thrift items. The prices are much more than a typical thrift store but it depends on what you are buying. There are some good deals and some hidden gems that are definitely worth their price. Definitely will go back here. The staff was also super nice and very helpful.

Interesting place.

Hit or miss place but definitely worth a visit. Sometimes I find a lot and sometimes I dont. The things I did find were amazing.

Went here for the first time since we are from North Carolina. We do not have anything like this place in NC. I loved it. I wish I brought a bigger suitcase. We left empty handed. Thanks for the experience.

Great eclectic place for clothing

The staff was so helpful and provided great style suggestions. I will definitely be back to shop with her again. Love my purchases!

A Halloween STAPLE.SIDE NOTE: If you are in HS and want a jump on Prom season, definitely head in; they have LOADS of gowns that are modern and UNDER $40

To expensive for thrifting

I love this place.

My entire family loves this place - we fill up a couple bags sorting through the mountain of clothes from the new bales opened every morning - we go once a year and at $2 pound we save $100s of dollars on clothes for every type of occasion.

Love love love coming here! I could spend hours digging through their racks, prices are a little high but amazing vintage treasures

I can always use more clothes😊

Immaculate vibes at this place. Very cool stuff there whenever you go.

Its fun here. Clean and a huge variety of items to choose from. I recommend the $2.00 a pound area. The atmosphere is cool but the prices of the clothing on the racks are SUPER expensive and overpriced. You can definitely find the exact items online for half the cost.

Sweet store with a large selection of high quality second-hand clothes

Great place for vintage clothes and costumes. But oh god the rabbit carnage.

Amazing selection, and even better customer service. Ill be back for sure!

I have loved the garment district since I was a preteen. It is always fun to stop by on a random day or to go in for the sales. Ive been impressed with their designer section. Also, they have tons of eighties clothing now. And the clothes are back in style. It is a must for people to at the very least to stop by.

I get fully 80% of my clothes here, including many of my shoes. They have a really diverse selection of styles and somehow they always keep their stocks quite full. Merchandise is almost always used, but very good quality and quite cheap in price.The strong point of this place is the sheer diversity of stuff. They have all kinds of colors, all kinds of fashion periods, 50s jackets, 60s bell bottoms, 80s tees, 90s baggy pants ... if you like to go on an adventure and see what you can find, this is the place to go. Really good costumey/accessory stuff as well - belts, handbags, etc. They even have a dedicated clothing section for physical working conditions.Do not expect selection to be consistent here across body sizes and types. This is not the kind of place where you meticulously plan beforehand what youll buy and try on different sizes of the same garment. They have a lot, but its a what-you-see-is-what-you-get deal. Ive never left empty-handed.

Please bring back “by the pound”.

If you need clothes cheap, have some time, and are willing to take the chance you might not find anything, hit this place up. For a thrift store, its surprisingly well sorted and stocked, including sections for specific decades, uniforms, and costumes (although no non-work shorts, sadly). I picked up a great shell jacket for $20 thats been a lifesaver for some of the rains weve had here, as well as some basics just to replace older clothes.

This is the place to come for clothes. They have a great deal for students on Fridays - you can get clothes by the pound at a steep discount! Also, if you enjoy sweaters as much as I do this place has a great selection. Also has costumes for whatever reason!

So glad we were recommended this place by a couple of the locals. What a deal! Went in looking for some snowboarding gear during season which was difficult, but for absolutely anything you might need (including costumes) you can find second hand here.

The place its self has cute Trendy Items but the prices are a bit much. Definitely a long visit because it works kinda like savers

The first time I came here, they were totally decked out for Halloween. You could walk in with no idea what sort of costume you wanted and find something insane. I came back recently and had a ton of fun browsing their upstairs section, which is technically just second hand clothes, but a lot of it is funky or retro stuff. This actually makes it a funny, creative date spot, but you might be hard pressed to find things youd actually wear in real life (unless your taste is a little eccentric).

Fun and eclectic spot to find fun your not so easy to find costumes and of course your everyday threads. Around Halloween is a wee chaotic but fun to experience. Good for all ages and worth visiting.

First of all, this isnt really a second hand store. Its not Goodwill or Salvation Army, where everything is dirt cheap and the place is a mess. This place is ready well organized and nearly all garments are relatively clean and usually not too damaged, so they DO sort stuff.The bad is that the prices are much higher than Goodwill/SA, and the selection is a lot less varied (less destroyed stuff, and less stuff in general). Their By the Pound is fantastic, but I prefer to put in time at Goodwill.

You can easily find a vast array of eclectic outfits from this popular thrift store nesting inside an old warehouse. For literally pennies on the dollar, you can find any number of styles to suit a last-minute event or a get-together. The biggest plus is that you dont even have to only have $20 in your pocket to enjoy these great deals!If this review was helpful, please consider a thumbs up. It would be greatly appreciated!

Went on Wednesday. I was shocked at how high the prices are for secondhand clothing. 35$ for a used denim jacket? There was nothing there you cant find at any other consignment store for far less. The costume area was fun to look around at but again, overpriced

Awesome selected of used clothes

I love this place. Todays trip was for a 70s disco outfit and we were successful within 10 minutes but stayed another hour just to keep looking around. You can find anything here. I swear they have all my 80s sweaters and my mother in laws collection of 90s colorful tracksuits...

Garment district is a lifesaver for Halloween costumes and really fun to browse, but it is not a *thrift* store because while a lot of the items are second hand, they are usually just as expensive as they would be anywhere else. Still, I enjoy shopping there occasionally

This is definitely a unique spot. Its basically tradition for anyone in Cambridge or Somerville to make sure to hit up the garment district to find your costume for Halloween. The nice thing is you can find all sorts of great stuff year round for costumes. At the same time you can check out a huge selection of second hand clothing options at great prices.

Oh man I have so much great stuff to say about this place. The madness of it is beautiful, theres so much appealing to so many that its nearly impossible to walk out without some thing. While you wont catch me in the sea of clothes when they do their by the pound deals--its surreal watching it--you best believe my wardrobe expanded. Im currently wearing shoes and a button up I got there, and both at great value & quality

Love the dollar-a-pound pile. Clothes upstairs are organized into clear categories and are easy to go through. Lots of changing rooms. Many items are more expensive than your typical thrift store, but this is no typical thrift store. The back room upstairs is all organized by decade.

The Garment District is like a fantasy land for vintage shoppers. Essentially it is a vintage department store, organized by item type and age of the clothes. They also have a lot of amazing new things that are hard to find elsewhere. My sister once had spent months searching for a fanny pack before a trip we were going on. As soon as she told me her problem I headed to the garment district and was able to send photos of about 20 different options that fit her needs. Ive found so many really incredible treasures there that have become signature pieces.

A must go in boston if youre a thrifter, vintage shopper or halloween fanatic. Such a fun fun place. Will be going back the next time im in Boston.

They say fashion repeats itself every seven years. So no harm buying old they have some good deals on branded items Costumes are also available. Nice big parking lot visible from main road very very friendly staff. You always get some good stuff here

Huge selection of great clothes and a very unique and exciting option to find clothes in a pile at $1 per pound

A truly unique experience. A must visit for tourists who are makers. Fiber artists and sewing enthusiasts abound.The pile of used clothing by the pound is a must see.The by the pound pile is sort of like if someone took a clothing thrift shop, removed all the hangers and racks, and just threw it all on the floor.

This place has awesome vintage clothes, cheap up-to-date used clothes, and environmentally friendly practices. The staff is helpful and friendly. I got my favorite jeans here for $6. They have a small rack of kids clothes too: I just got a gorgeous Patagonia winter coat for my kid for $12.

Christmas party? Ugly sweater selection cant be beat. Halloween costume? Theyve got it. Vintage leather jacket or denim? Check. When I was late for work and forgot my uniform white button down shirt, I called and an employee was happy to dig through the racks to find one in my size so that all I had to do was run in and pay, then head to work. Truly a neighborhood gem with a fantastic crew and a well organized, unique selection. In a city full of cool spots, the garment district shines.

Excellent thrift and costume store thats been a part of the community forever. Extensive layout, frequently shifting stock, and great costumes for purchase and rent. They also hold 50% off sales several times a year along with special events.

Shopping here since a wee lad. Since high school, would drive from NH to Alewife Station to take the train to Kendall Station to get to the Garment District and spend the day sifting for gold in The Pile and find iconic and unique/authentic vintage pieces for my wardrobe that I wear to this day. Thank you Garment District- you are a true treasure.

This place was awesome! Its a lot more than just the iconic pile of laundry you get to dig through. Its actually very organized and has many different styles and a great selection!

Great selection of awesome finds. Like all thrift stores, it is a hunt, but it is well organized.

Love this place. Be prepared for a weird assortment of clothing, but if youre looking for something new, something cheap, or something weird (especially for Halloween costumes), this is the place to be.

Dollar for a pound is now two dollars for a pound but it is still worth every cent. Times change but the Garment District is still somewhere my friends and I go every single time Im back in the states! Heck, I got a silk shirt and a prom dress from there for about five dollars and theyre amazing. All sorts of stuff here whether its for ethical shopping folks or people just looking for a cheap costume outfit (not from their costume section though; those things are more expensive..). All around love it!

Not very many shops like it in Boston. Great selections, awesome styles, and great prices. This place will definitly satisfy anyones desire for vintage, classic clothing.

Really awesome store, but the prices are insane. I understand theyre unique pieces, but $38 for a jacket that has damaged - as is written on the tag is pretty steep. I do love the buy the pound section, though.

Love the amazing selection of vintage and modern clothing. Prices are very affordable and you can get great stuff for both men and women. Years ago there was a wonderful selection of Dr Martens all the time but this seems to have gone away. They sort their pants sizes strangely so you really have to check several sections and read the labels to find what youre looking for.

Great 80s & 90s collection.... 50% off til 8p tonight.No A/C in the building so be prepared to sweat!

Always have a blast going! I’ve brought all my friends and they’ve all had the same experience. Amazing staff that are extremely helpful and just as amazing deals.

Its an absolute must to stop here! The store is amazing to explore, they are so much more than just a thrift store. I highly recommend going.

Fun and lots of awesome clothes no matter your style.

The Garment district is a solid place to grab vintage clothes, of mostly pretty good quality. Ive made a number of good jacket finds on their normal racks, and their by the pound pile on the main floor has lots of crazy good deals. Theyve got a lot of stuff, too, more than most goodwill stores around town. A great place!

Huge old factory space that houses costume rental and sales, stage and special effects makeup, and used clothing, shoes and accessories. The prices here are higher than many other second hand shops. However, there is a by the pound section that comprises the used clothing equivalent of the ball pit at Chuck E Cheese. You can wade (literally) in and fill a bag or bags that are weighed at the cash register. Lots of denim, including a wall of overalls. Good for diy costumes and for period garments from the 70s onward.One bargain we noticed was a number of pairs of cowboy boots with leather soles -- perfect for country and line dancing and under $50.

Second hand store meets costume shop. Pretty good combo. They also have the pile which is a giant pile of unsorted clothes that you can purchase for $2 a pound. The best part is they have a massive selection of everything from every decade the only downside is its a little expensive for you what you would think a store like this would be. Definitely worth the trip every time

Great place for Halloween costumes. Its much better than a regular pop-up costume shop.

The mix of new and used clothing can be a bit surreal. Walking around can feel like slipping through a time warp at times. I found what I needed for the costume I was creating at a price I was happy with.

A little overwhelming at first, but follow the signs and be okay with getting lost. Ive thrifted all over the world and its a little more expensive than Im used to, but they do have some interesting stuff and Im never disappointed.

Love this place. By the pound option ($2 Everyday and $1 on Friday. You can purchase costumes and other vintage clothing and shoes. Favorite place to shop.

Great selection

Left with hives...over priced used clothing and shoes...smelt like a damp basement...better luck at any Good Will. They DO have a decent Halloween section...but 60 bucks for an imitation straight jacket gives you hint of higher prices. Go with deep pockets..nose plugs and will be ok...not for the budget poor at all. After seeing countless ads I could not wait to go....glad I killed the curiosity.

Nice area calm.

You can find it all here. I did buy my $17 Halloween steampunk dress there. It was new as far as I can tell. There are Halloweens things for all kinds of budgets (body suits start at $7/$8), but you can find complex costumes for $300 if you want to. There are tons of accessories, all new. But you can also go outside of Halloween & find second hand clothes by the pound, or curated ones (more expensive).

A really cool store for vintage clothes and costumes. If you need a specific outfit in a pinch, you can probably cobble it together here. Lots of retro stuff and accessories.

ONE OF MY FAVORITE PLACES! Great buys, all kinds of styles to choose from. Huge Hallowee. Selection.

True value in quality new and used clothing, love the by-the-pound option!

Once you enter this place, you are grossed out by the pile of clothes on the first floor, it is only until you get to the second floor area that you see some organization. Sorted by decades you can find some funky 70s and 80s gear but if you have the time to dig through you can find some chic clothes to wear. I was able to get a very cute black Zara blazer for only $14 dollars, what a steal!!!!

A lot more organized than Im used to seeing in thrift stores which is really cool. I suggest looking around first and then save the by the pound section for last. :D

The best thrift store Ive found for clothing. Everything stays well sorted and there always seem to be plenty of folk on staff on the weekends when I visit. Never have to wait more than a few seconds to be offered a fitting room.

Awesome vintage selection, never know what youll find
