Humana Vintage

Humana Vintage is one of the most popular and biggest chain-thriftstore in Barcelona, present on over 20 different locations. Humana is very environmentally-focused, as they are envolved in many causes and organisations. They also provide a 10% discount to customers that choose to make a donation of old clothing, so you can save money while also helping a good cause. Their clothing items are generally very trendy and simple, whilst still maintaining a pretty low price. Depending on the day you go to shop, there are discounts and deals you can bargain with.

Mercat Del Encants

Mercat dels Encants is one of the oldest flea markets in Europe and is Barcelona's largest and best known market. It is filled with antique (and cheap) furniture, camera's, jewellery and clothing. Many TikTokers have reported there are some hidden gems inside these vintage shops, but you have to dig deep to get to them. So, this flea market is not for the weak! It is open on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 9am to 8pm, but it is recommended to go there as early as possible (and not on saturdays), in order to avoid busy crowds.

Flamingo Vintage Kilo

Flamingo Vintage Kilo is not just like any vintage shop in Barcelona. Firstly, it holds many unique and funky clothing pieces you wont be able to find anywhere else! More notably, their pricing system does not work like any other: in this store, the price is valued by weight, rather than per item. This means you can use this to your advantage, by purchasing some lightweight pieces such as for example scarfs, tops and silky dresses.

Cotton Vintage

Cotton Vintage is made for those who are willing to spend a bit extra in order to build their dream wardrobe. It is filled with vintage designer handbags, accessories and clothing items. From designer brands such as Chanel, Dior to YSL, this store can serve as a time capsule, carrying you though all their past (and current) collections. So, if you are looking to buy some designer items, for a cheaper price and of more unique value, get to shopping!

Lullaby Vintage

If you are a true vintage lover, Lullaby Vintage is the shop for you! The items inside are categorized by decade, making your shopping experience more efficient and enjoyable. The boutique is owned by 2 Catalan musicians, so you can reconnect with Barcelona's culture trough the in-store music and the unique clothing pieces hanging on the racks. Can it get more authentic than that?
