I was lucky enough to wonder in, on a day when everything was 50% off!! The store is fairly well organized and divided by sizes and type of clothing. I also scored a gorgeous vase and a piece of Golden Girls memorabilia for a friend. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of brand name clothing that still has lots of life to offer, and the wide range of sizes available.

AWFUL. Staff pulls anything they think is valuable and put in a front corner behind a gate. If you…read moreshop inside here, you're watched like a hawk and 99% of it is garbage. Prices are ridiculous and not much hits the floor anymore. A few years ago, when Robert ran the store, it was fantastic. Items hit the floor fast, store was clean and organized, prices were decent and you were always able to find something. Now, it's a joke. Pass.

(COVID-19 REVIEW)…read more Indigo Vintage is a quaint clothing store in Downtown Santa Cruz. There's lot of clothing options to choose from such as: vintage shorts, mini skirts, graphic tees, retro jackets / corduroys, crew necks, patchwork, baby tees, summer dresses, and pants! There are definitely hidden gems that you could get here at a decent price from big brands like Levis and Lee's. For example, I saw a pair of Beige Straight legged Levi's being sold for $48 and that was a huge mark down compared to a $120 white of Levi's I saw in the front of the store! I really did like how there were multiple brands / small businesses that were being supported as I looked through the racks. Everything was super trendy, so it was hard to not pick up a few pieces. There were a couple of fitting rooms that are open, which was a huge plus considering most of the items you'll buy would be an investment. The CDC standards probably opened up a bit more since vaccinations are rolling out for a large age group. The two girls that were working at the store were super nice and welcoming to all the people that were coming in to the store. Asking them to open a room was no problem since the store was on the smaller end. Overall, I would recommend people to come by and check this place out! Although it's more of a fancy way of "thrifting", the experience makes up for it.

I've always loved shopping at Grey Bears, which is why this experience was so upsetting…read more Today I was walking toward the outdoor rug section with a basket full of items when a staff member stopped me and told me I had to bring my items to the front before continuing. What felt uncomfortable is that there were several other customers walking around with items from the main store, yet I was the only one singled out. When I brought my items up to the register, a different employee initially rang them up, then paused after the same women from before whispered something to her. She then told me they were adding a few dollars to several items because they were "priced too low."!! I was in shock. These items were already on the sales floor at the marked prices, and I did not see this happen to any other customers. The entire interaction felt unfair and targeted, and I left feeling embarrassed and uncomfortable. I don't want to jump to conclusions, but being singled out and then charged more than the posted prices shook my trust. I've always enjoyed this store, but this experience made me feel unwelcome, and unfortunately I'm not sure I'll be able to shop here again.

So, I decided to go inside and check out what they have these days. There's a lot of eye candy in their shop. Besides new items, they also have gently used. What they have to offer doesn't look like it comes from a box store.  They have clothing for men and women. There's a nice selection of cowboy and cowgirl boots. The store has a southwestern feel to it. Besides clothing, they have bolos and earrings too. I love their soft, fringed leather bags.  I talked with the owner, who was very friendly. She has had the store for over a decade. There is parking on the street.

I had a really disappointing experience with this store and feel the need to warn others…read more I brought in several vintage and valuable items, including an MCM purse that was carefully stored in its dust bag. When I picked up my items that weren't accepted, my purse was thrown in with the clothes without the dust bag I originally provided. When I asked about it, I was told it had been "misplaced." I've called multiple times trying to resolve this, and the responses have been inconsistent and frustrating. One employee said the person handling the items didn't know where it was, and later I was told that a dust bag was never brought in, which is simply not true. I specifically showed them the bag in its dust cover when I dropped it off. As someone who values designer items, this level of carelessness and lack of accountability is unacceptable. Whether the dust bag is valued at $10 or more, that's not the point, the issue is how this situation has been handled. I've asked to speak with a manager and am still waiting for proper follow up. Unfortunately, this experience felt dismissive and dishonest. I will not be returning, and I would strongly caution others to think twice before bringing in valuable or designer items here.
