Get your ’80s duds here. The Old Ballard secondhand shop also shows first-rate art and local designers’ wares.
Return to simpler times with Pendleton, Woolrich, and Filson clothes; local produce; chocolates; perfumes; Red Wing boots; Stanley thermoses; and lessons on lost practices such as deboning chickens.

Blackbird’s equally dark and edgy sister is like the cool upper classmate in high school whose taste you trust unquestioningly. Let her introduce you to off-the-map designers like Harputs Own, Clu, and Pleasure Principle.
Set foot in the door of the masterly curated store and you’ll find it difficult to leave. Shop shoes by Fiorentini + Baker, Corso Como, and Argila, plus jewelry, bags, wallets, and home accessories.
Clothing, accessories, and art, plus collaborations between little-known international, national, and local designers make this little gallery/store a sweet experiment that proves a fashionable find.
A.P.C. Band of Outsiders. Corpus. Distilled. We could go on listing lust-worthy labels till we reach Zuriick, but this cooler-than-thou men’s shop is a better surprise. For an extra treat, stop in the Candy Shoppe.
