Superette Best Quality Vintage — Local services in New York

As someone who has lived in Chinatown their whole life, I’m so glad there is finally an Asian-owned and Asian-operated store! In recent years, many small businesses have come to Chinatown for the cheap rent, especially in the mall under the bridge and the “Dimes Square”. Most of them paid no respect to the community they are in, but not Superette. I discovered them through their annual sale event, and I like that they donated a portion of the profits to a Chinatown charity.

In terms of selection, it’s fantastic, and the prices are definitely below market value (compared to places like The RealReal). I’ve been getting the best archival Yohji Yamamoto and Issey Miyake pieces from the store. They have such a wide variety of items. I’ve heard that many people who sell at the Manhattan Vintage Show and Current Affair are part of the store too which makes sense given the quality.

Have no idea why some of the previous comments said the store is not for certain skin color?? I have brought friends of all kinds of tone and they show nothing but warmth and respect!! people nowadays are too sensitive lol

Love you...

The staff are knowledgeable, unpretentious, helpful and take the time for each and every customer. It is the rarest of combinations in NYC to find all of these in unison. I love this shop and I find my best afternoons are spent here. Huge inventory that rotates regularly. Such a remarkable and...

I wanted everything in the store for myself (or for a friend if it wasn’t my size)! Scored some new No. 6 clogs (not vintage, but a lucky find— two of the owners told me that one bought the clogs for the other as a gift, but they were the wrong size for her, so… lucky me!) and found the perfect white cotton crochet-trim top for summer that I’ve been searching for. All during my first visit. So glad this is in the...
