Mee & Gee is one of the cheapest second-hand clothing retailers in the city, and with five locations across Hong Kong, it’s one of the easiest places to bag a unique bargain… especially as they all have HKD10 racks. Be still our beating, thrifty hearts. Unlike the west, Asians that are superstitious tend to think that vintage clothes are sourced from the deceased so it was never popular until recent years where recycle and individual style become in fashion.

 

​Across the board, the clothes (of which there are a lot) here are more skewed towards womenswear, but there is a solid collection of vintage t-shirts and trousers for men too. (Or women who don’t believe in paying a premium for “boyfriend fit” clothing, we won’t judge.) Given the sheer volume of Mee & Gee’s stock, the quality is bound to be more inconsistent than some of the other shops listed, and it does take a while to dig through everything available. However, we maintain that half of the fun of vintage shopping is the thrill of landing a diamond in the rough. (source: coconuts.co, 2017)
