Strange Cargo

I love this store! if your looking for great quality vintage clothing,this is the place to go. they have a wide selection of vintage clothes from different time periods as well as newer items available also. i have bought several pieces from them and was always pleased with the quality. they also sell purses,hats,ciggy cases etc. parking can sometimes be a problem as this neighborhood is very busy,but feel the trip is well worth it.

This store has an awesome selection of vintage and new clothing, 70's t-shirts, cool sneakers and tons more classic stuff. Very funky and hip, located in a convenient area near all public transportation. What a great place when you are looking for something unusual and retro too.

Strange Cargo carries true vintage jeans and apparel. Mainly 70’s and 80’s in style most clothes are in fact vintage (used), but you can find some new. Those beloved logo tees can also be found along with memorabilia from those 2 decades. The store itself resembles a day at the flea market but I must admit that it is relatively organized.

A really wonderful place to find strange, offbeat merchandise (from Mr. T. paraphenelia to cocktail dresses). Strange Cargo is located about a block from Wrigley Field and is as much fun to window shop at as it is to buy. They have a good shoe section that has everything from Chuck Taylors to Go-Go Boots, and a lot of out-of-print trading cards from 70s and 80s TV shows. Everything is is realatively cheap, too.

PROS: Lots of unque, strange finds
CONS: Kind of a small store
