Best Places to Source Vintage Jeans

Caitlin Chapman

My go-to outfit feels effortless but put-together: a well-tailored T-shirt paired with vintage jeans. This understated yet chic combination serves as the foundation of a timeless wardrobe. The simplicity of a classic T-shirt, combined with the character and charm of vintage denim, creates a look that is both relaxed and refined. It’s about striking the perfect balance between comfort and style, and this duo does just that.

Curating These Essentials:

When curating my denim collection, I turn to a select group of favorite boutiques that truly understand the art of classic dressing. Shop RLT offers a curated selection of high-quality vintage denim and in-house basics, ensuring each RLTee is a staple that stands the test of time. For vintage jeans, Jeanius Shop and Jean Vintage Co. are my top recommendations. Their collections feature beautifully worn-in jeans that add an effortless, lived-in feel to any outfit, blending sophistication with a touch of nostalgia.

A visit to the Rose Bowl Flea Market completes the experience, offering an array of unique finds that elevate the everyday. The market’s diverse selection is perfect for discovering standout pieces that bring individuality to your wardrobe. Each trip promises an array of hidden treasures, from rare denim styles to vintage graphic tees, making it an essential destination for refining a classic look.
