Another interesting used clothing store on Oak Street. The selection is a bit more curated than most shops with an emphasis on a boho style. There are equal amounts of men and women’s clothes along with some accessories. When I stopped in, the owner(I think) was actually in the shop and she was repricing winter coats at a discount. If her style is yours, you will rack up. If not, you might find an accessory to your liking. Extra star for actually carrying men’s clothing.

Come patiently. Finding something in this store is like finding buried treasure. There are good pieces here… you just REALLY have to dig and look past a lot of things to find them. There’s a lot of stuff here, deemed«vintage». Sadly, that is a term that has been stretched so much that calling something that means absolutely nothing. Just because it’s a bit dated, doesn’t mean that its automatically to-die-for. I don’t think this would bother me so much if low-quality dated stuff didn’t have the expensive price tag on it. For a few dollars, anything can start to look kinda cool, but over $ 25 for something that’s hit or miss just isn’t worth it. Go in and browse and you might find a hidden gem, never know.

You have to look past the copious amount of stuffed animals that are stapled to the celling and the sometimes uninvolved staff. They have a nice selection of men’s clothing, which some shops tend to forget. However, I had a hard time finding anything that spoke to me in the women’s wear. I feel as if similar options are available at Goodwill or Salvation Army.

Like any thrift store you’ll have to sort through to find something that suits your style, i think Glue offers a great variety of different types of clothing(coincidently many of which i couldn’t possibly imagine pulling off) but i did enjoy the selection and the fact that everything is 50% till May. If i were to stay in town a bit longer i’d return to poke and prod my way through the store but I made a couple good finds there nonetheless. The lady working was very nice, her child was there but he was adorable and in smiles the entire time. Only downside, cash only. i had to run next door to ZOTZ to use their atm, luckily i needed cash anyways, otherwise i really wouldn’t have bothered.

While I’m sure that Glue would appeal to some people, it’s just not one of the«nicer» vintage stores in the city. A lot of the stuff in this store I wouldn’t even consider vintage. I mean, sure, I like a ratty looking AC/DC shirt as much as the next gal, but I doubt that I would rush out to buy one for 30 bucks and call it vintage. The place is packed with what I guess some people would call«hipster» clothes(I HATE that term, btw.) but if you are looking for something a little fancier, you would probably be better off going next door to On the Other Hand.

There are some good deals($ 8 – 14), but if you had money to spend there are some great clothes. Go for it.

Lots of great clothes, shoes and accessories. Everything has been half-off everytime I’ve gone… Seems to be the standard– price it high then act like you’re giving ‘em a deal. I’m fine with that, as long as it comes out cheap for me! Docked a star because the woman working had her small child running around screaming… Ergh. I can understand not being able to get a sitter– but c’mon lady, control the little monster!

GLUE has a lot of really great vintage clothing, jewelry and accessories. The prices are pretty decent for the quality, especially when they take half off the sticker price. The store has a fun atmosphere, with lots of 60’s rock memorabilia and classic rock. I do wish they weren’t cash only, but it’s not a huge gripe. Basically, I love this store as a place to browse and find unique pieces.
