Vintage Shopping in New York City (What I learned...)

I decided to go Vintage Shopping in New York City... which ultimately was a bit more challenging than I thought it would be.

Hi! I am very surprised that the vintage community hasn't actually told you what year the batman shirt was from. The copyright that you see was the copyright for the graphic. A common mistake people would make is that they would depend on the copyright date on the graphic to determine the date of the manufacturing of the shirt. However, we can date your vintage batman shirt with the shirt tag that the graphic was printed on. You can use many resources to cross-reference common vintage wholesale brand tags (i.e., Hanes, Gildan, in this case, Oneita). For your batman shirt, the Oneita tag that it has is the "Power/50" one, which is seen around the late 80s and early 90s. This is definitely still a vintage tee but would not date back to the 60s. Overall, solid pickups man! Good vibes only :)

Swedish speaking Finn here! You are indeed correct, the cap is Swedish! It says "Sätila Basketball Elite series -95" in the front. Sätila is a town in Sweden and I assume that is a local basketball club's hat! There is also a knitwear etc brand called Sätila, which I believe originates from the town. On the side it says "hobby commercial/hobby sponsorship", so it might be something about local sponsor stuff for the team! A cool find especially from a store in Denver! 😄 EDIT: I actually found picture of the basketball club wearing those exact caps you found! Amazing backstory to an item! That's what I personally love about vintage pieces!

[@DrewJoiner]

This hat just became 100x cooler you are the best🤝

[@NiiloHargut]

@@DrewJoiner I sent the pic to your IG DMs so you can check it out! And 1000% cool hat 🤠

[@yasirnaimi6675]

I live like 100 miles from Sätila and i have never heard of it, now i know about it through a cool guy that lives in Denver traveld to New York looking for a vintage hat 😂 i fucking love the internet ❤

[@hc661]

i love how this shows the reality of vintage shopping, sometimes you just cant find shit 🤣

[@DrewJoiner]

‼️‼️‼️

[@KaitlinGaspar]

yeah i’ve been in NYC for 5 years and the prices are insane and every shop is picked clean. it’s way too competitive at the vintage shops and i just have lost a lotta hope for thrifting here

[@JoeMama-vg7ef]

went thrifting yesterday and macklemores thrift shop doesnt feel too accurate lmfao

[@dubssalamander]

Wait a minute, it’s not Sunday!

[@DrewJoiner]

😂 2 for 1 special coming your way

[@justjoelee]

love this vlog format, keep up the solid work man 🔥

[@athenamorgann]

Yay!!! I’ve been wanting to watch another vlog from you 🤩

[@joyce3003]

I love the vibes in your videos!

[@JTMYG]

Even though the Batman t-shirt has a copyright date of 1965. That’s not the actual date it’s probably another copyright date for Batman in itself from DC Comics. The Onieta Power/50 tag on it shows that it is an 80’s shirt which is still cool 👍🏽

[@tuesdayallweeklong]

Something about Drew's vids always inspire me. Solid as always, my guy 👊.

[@lukeneff8724]

Love vintage videos drew, good stuff

[@amusiclover7340]

Just want to say as a recent subscriber, I really enjoy your energy in all your videos. Idk how to describe it just comfy vibes 💯🔥

[@fingerboardboi4382]

I came to comment exactly this, also a new subscriber and I love the chill vibes of this video

[@tanaysomisetty]

Next time you're in NYC, I recommend checking out some vintage and second hand stores around the Dimes Square area (in between Chinatown and LES). There's a TON of vintage stores right by each other! Let me know if you want the names of some specific stores

[@mileszarick7250]

I’d like some names lol

[@Jasmine-tr1zs]

I’d also like some names!

[@youtubev0idfps696]

Pass the names

[@tanaysomisetty]

Harley’s, Country Of, Landline Vintage, Superette, Lara Koleji are some of the one’s I’ve been to in the area…all within walking distance. There’s a ton more but these are the ones I can remember

[@youtubev0idfps696]

@@tanaysomisetty let me know all of them i wanna go thrifting

[@tanaysomisetty]

Super excited to hear you may move here to NYC! Great video and I definitely agree that vintage shopping here can be pretty expensive. I also make NYC content so this was a fun watch

[@FanDutch]

[@giacomospaul]

[@PeaceLoveAndButterflies]

love a good old vintage shopping.x

[@AKhan.28]

I went to NYC last month. Did some shopping at Kith, ALD, Stussy, and Prada. I honestly didn't have time to do any vintage shopping. Next time I'll def have to hit up these stores you went to.

[@Tony-qz5cf]

Great pickup. Love the jacket.

[@_yosh_101]

you should go to thriftcon in Denver next month. I haven't been to the one in denver but the one in Houston is SUPER fun!!

[@kevishsuri8638]

Just came back from NYC.... needed this vid

[@Emerson142]

Love your content brother! You gotta plug those shorts though! 🔥🔥🔥

[@324jackattack]

as a brooklynite, seeing places i recognize in your vid is very cool. loved this

[@aviansays]

There is just so many people them pick it bone dry. You have to know when they come in with new clothes and be the absolute first people in there. The prices just follow the law of supply and demand. It's wild. Source: lived in east village. That was a fun a year, enjoy it!! Liking the vids Drew!

[@Dusty_617]

Drew has inspired me in many ways

[@jordansmith4353]

This is perfect!

[@anonymous_siren]

wowwowwow the cap with Swedish words on it looks sooooo cool!

[@RobiYorkMusic]

People need to understand the difference between "thrifting" and "vinatge shopping". The types of vintage shops he visited usually purchase the items they sell and are in expensive places to have a store. So the prices are always gonna be extreme. Thrifting has changed also because of these vintage shops. The thrifts like Goodwill and Salvation Army have gotten hip to the game and now price their shit higher based on the brands. Carhartt Jackets were $30 MAX 5+ years ago. It was easier to spend $20 at the thrift and leave with 5 things back in the day.

[@175chaunceytovan]

Love your videos from Dallas Tx . I have that same Arc’teryx beta lt jacket 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@ajger]

My favourite is Golden Pothos! Great episode man!

[@xxflamezxx1able]

I’m from NYC so you hit up a lot of popular spots. Thrifting here in NYC has gotten very hard, lots of expensive spots that are very curated and less and less truly vintage shops to find those 10 dollar gems. Also that pointer brand is amazing, I believe they are called LC King Mfg so the fact that it’s pointer brand makes it relatively older.

[@catnip4587]

It’s getting harder to find the hidden gem. Thrift and vintage stores are raising prices due to increased demand and thrifting is very trendy at this time. In NYC anyway good luck

[@stafwittebolle]

As a taller individual myself as well, I feel you 😂 the sizing struggle is real

[@Jenovard]

What’s considered expensive for vintage t-shirts in the States now? I lived in Tokyo for a long time and just moved to LA. Highly recommend Tokyo for vintage. Specifically the Shimokitazawa area. New York Joe is one spot. I’m there now and had so much fun. For vintage designer goods the Kindal shops around the city are good too. And with the crazy exchange rate it’s a great time to shop.

[@davidtaylor1619]

I'm from Ohio and Ive been thrifting for a very long time in my city, which is Youngstown. When I moved to NYC I expected a huge range of great pieces with decent prices. But no! NYC store owners, vendors know their brands and quality. So they charge "Boutique" prices on they're vintage products. At some point when I was living in NYC, I found myself missing my hometown in Ohio. Just for some quality Thrift grabs 😂. I feel you Drew... There are some great hidden gems in NYC still. Go to Harlem. I caught mad heat at the Goodwill on 135th!!!!

[@Anne_fka_XATM038x]

Waaaaa I love this!! Thank you for getting a lot of shots of the city too

I love the beanie hat, where did you get that?

[@MrAhmedrocks234]

Pleasantly surprised to see Avery, brought back some memories!

[@michaeltheewolf]

Shape of the hat is definitely a good look!

[@royceramirez3962]

yooo i went vintage shopping today at the thrift and i copped a 1970s burberry blazer, along with a vintage disney varsity jacket

[@evanbartholio]

Fun vid as always! what's the hat you're wearing @ 20:31 ?

[@4dollarsamsung]

Best way to wash used baseball/trucker hats is in the dish washer. Keeps the shape of the hat and cleans it rly well

[@iriezerai-che6616]

Its so funny because I was just in NY for SB so excited to go vintage shopping. As I am taller guy simmilar to drew I didn't find much

[@kwamenyantakyi8398]

Love the music 🔥

Love your videos from Morocco ❤️✨

[@martinpettersson1963]

The cap is from a swedish basketball team in the highest division, the team is called Sätila Basket and the cap’s from the 1995 season

[@notethanstone2465]

Whoa! The plant on your left grew so much!

[@sammykerns4397]

Was just vintage shopping in nyc myself! I was so excited to visit round two but they closed down! it was the only store i knew about ahead of time and was one i’d ALWAYS wanted to go to. kinda heartbroken to find it gone. not sure why or when they closed down the nyc location but it must’ve been quite recent and quite abrupt!

[@kingzhibrhanfabrizio1759]

They used to come to ltrain vintage or they would send their people to Ltrain for cheap grails they could price up in their store, glad they folded. stores like them are what messed up the thrift game

[@ax1338]

Yo how is the analogue pocket. I was thinking of buying one of those.

[@cathrinaugusti1052]

I would have belived there to be more interesting stuff in NY. But may be Copenhagen is quite awesome, for getting vintage and thriftet clothes after all.

[@kingzhibrhanfabrizio1759]

NYC sucks for vintage surprised why so many people go there for vintage is the worse, I find better vintage gear in states like Missouri then I do in NYC

[@thugdc8574]

one step closer to a johnnythai drewjoiner collab. fire video as always

[@jacobmperry]

I've just come back from London and ngl I had the same issue, there was just nothing in the vintage stores that I loved, they're just so curated in the UK so every store has the same exact stuff It feels a bit soulless. A tad hypocritical of me but the only item of clothing I ended up buying was an olive shirt from Uniqlo. I tried on the Camion boots at Our Legacy and my god do I want them, too bad I'll have to sell an organ. #PVV I'm a very big fan of French hydrangeas

[@Ray03595]

Happy apartment hunt, prices are so crazy rn😢

The best vintage shops in the nyc area are in New Jersey

[@ivandang8543]

When’s the raw denim gonna drop 👀

[@kingzhibrhanfabrizio1759]

No more cheap grails in NYC, you have to travel out of NY to get the heat now, if you dont have a plug to the raghouses you aint finding grails anymore and if you do see a piece in a boutique they will price it higher then it is actually worth. I repeat NYC sucks for thrifting vintage clothing. Nothing but over priced curated boutiques. They are paying pennies on the dollar for grails at raghouses. I spent 2000 in a raghouse but walked out with atleast 20000 in high end grails.
