The Best Vintage Shops in Leeds
Vintage shops aren’t as predominant as they were just five years ago, with many closing their doors or moving online. It’s also a little trickier to track them down in Leeds as they aren’t as highly concentrated around one area, as in Manchester’s Northern Quarter. If you’re planning a vintage shopping trip to Leeds, here are the five addresses that you need to make a bee-line for.

Pop Boutique
Pop Boutique
Hailing from just down the M62 in Manchester, Pop Boutique is now a heavyweight in the UK’s vintage scene with further stores in Liverpool and London. Expect a variety of vintage looks with a concentration on styles from the sixties, seventies and eighties and a complementary soundtrack of hit songs from the same period. There’s also a diverse range of own-brand items that utilise recycled vintage fabrics with more contemporary designs for those who are just dipping their toes into the vintage look.
