I agree with the others — this is a pretty sweet charity shop, even if you’re not really into charity shopping like me! It’s an ok size and has a good range — I like that it doesn’t feel crowded or overstocked, meaning it’s easier to have a look around and browse without getting too stressed out. The window display was lovely and eye-catching(very on trend) and like Rebecca D said, the items which need attention have it mentioned on the label which I’m sure must be a huge timesaver if you were going to buy something. In addition to clothes, they had a good range of accessories — jewellery, hats, shoes, ties etc. So it’s definitely worth a stop-in for a rummage.

Great charity shop. Well stocked with lots of open space and the clothing colour coordinated. The staff are friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. There’s even a small fitting room. This is probably my favourite charity shop on Byres Road and I often stop in over a lunch time to check out the new items. I really like that they also sell some things that need a little TLC and that they highlight this to you(e.g. «Hem needs repaired» or «missing button» rather than«New!»). I hate to think of those things getting wasted because they aren’t quite perfect, so it’s good to know that they don’t get discarded.

This shop is still fairly new and has a clean, spacious feeling to it. There’s a large selection of clothing and I’ve often been drawn in by their lovely window displays. As with all charity shops you will benefit by having a good rummage and visiting repeatedly! My favourite thing about this shop is their large sofa, perfect for chilling while your friend tries something on. The volunteers/staff are always really friendly and helpful with advice on sizes etc.

I really, really like this charity shop. It has a genuine high street feel about it and I found the stock to be of a really high quality when I visited. Lots to see, really spacious, and with really clear departments too, which made for super easy browsing. This is a definitely a shop I’ll find myself in when in the west end. As the first charity shop stop on byres road when starting at Oran Mor, this is a roaring start. Beginning here makes it very difficult as it’s so very tempting to spend every single penny. Next time, I think I’ll start at the other end and work my way back to British Red Cross. It’s shops like this one that bring me to the west and make it the place to be for second hand shopping. I’m already looking forward to my next visit!
