These guys know a lot about everything you could ever want to buy from them. I needed a last minute Larry Bird Jersey and I did some research on the surrounding area trying to find one. Instead of searching through endless thrift shops, I found out that the NBA store and Mr. Throw Back had them in stock. Mr. Throw Back had TWO different Bird jerseys in stock, and talked me though the differences. The NBA store one was much more expensive and the one that I bought from Mr. Throw back was WAY better. Check their website out if you're tryna do some research on their stock, everything was there too (including photos). read more

3.5 I used to visit Mr. Throwback's IG page, on a regular basis, but it's been quite awhile. I've been here on a prior occasion, but it was also, many years back. They have a wide range of vintage gear, especially Yankees, Mets, and Knicks. They differ from most vintage stores because their items are in good condition, I believe everything is new. I will say I think their price points on certain items are overpriced. Although, some of the prices are labeled high, they will slightly negotiate because I saw a lady negotiating a slightly lesser price on a t-shirt while I was there. I would say if you're a fan of the hometown teams, this is definitely a store you should visit. The store owner is also a bit of a character himself. read more

I saw these guys on instragram so I had to come in and check out the store. I'm particularly a fan of NBA champion jerseys. The store definitely has that 90s throwback feel from the music to the posters to the old video game and action figurines. Clothing on the racks is a nice selection of items well organized and hung up. Owner seemed knowledgeable and well informed. I didn't purchase anything mainly because the items were so expensive especially compared to eBay or even Brooklyn flea vendors, particularly for the NBA champion jerseys which I specialize in. In addition, I thought they would have more wwe wwf items all in all, worth a visit if you are a throwbacks/90s fan but you're unlikely to find that steal of a deal read more

Mr Throw Back - Storefront - Thrift Stores Near Me - New York, New York

Incredible selection of throwback jerseys, Starters jackets and lids from your favorite sports teams. Take time to chat with Tony and the crew, you'll be glad you did read more

Literally love this place. It's been a year since I stepped foot into this joint, I think exactly a year (counting months not days) and since they moved across the street next to the barber shop they have more space! They hold this neat basketball court vibe, with the store being long and the flooring being beige (if I remember correctly). Longer stores means- longer clothing rails-which means, more clothes! They still got the good stuff: jerseys, jackets, windbreakers (the sporty folks call it something else), FRESSSHHHH sneakers and then for the gaming folks a coin game near the window. Definitely missed stepping into this place. I'll come back again to finally buy something lol. read more

Mr Throw Back - They moved across the street. Bigger and better y'all. New address: 437 9th st - Thrift Stores Near Me - New York, New York

Man, who would have thought on my food crawl Wednesday I would find a gem like this. My friend victor took me down his old neighborhood and said "man we have to check out this store real quick" after greeting his old friend Mr.throwback I proceed to get lost in what seemed to be a time machine into my childhood. With classic Nike air Jordan's on display and space jam jerseys front and center for your eyes to day dream of having to money to purchase any size available. I couldn't believe the awesomeness this store holds inside. After talking with the owner for a bit, I learned how down to earth he is great guy very entertaining and very serious about his store. They have almost ever Jersey I could think of, NHL, NBA, NFL, and MLB. This is a great spot to checkout, worth traveling from around the world get your hands on some real classics. They even have Jordan's for sale at a very fair price, I even saw a pair of 2s DS under retail. I'll def becoming back to the store hands down great experience. read more

Looking for a jersey or team shirt that'll guarantee a unique look that none of your friends can touch? Come to Mr. Throw Back. I've been shopping here for years, and they never disappoint. Despite being in the East Village of Manhattan, they seem to get their hands on apparel from all over the country. From sea to shining sea and all major sports (including WWE), they've got some rad finds. A lot of their gear seems to come from the '90s, and we all know that was the best era for sports fashion. Who didn't ask their parents for a Starter jacket for the holidays? If your folks let you down, come here and finally grab the jacket, jersey, or sweater of your childhood dreams. The prices are steep, but you just can't find this stuff elsewhere. Worth every penny. read more

This place is a big 10/10. Michael was so welcoming and kind to everyone in the shop. Ended up getting one of the many great Phillies crew necks available. Great vibes. Great people. A must go in NYC read more

It has been a life long childhood dream of mine to own an authentic red Chicago Bulls Michael Jordan jersey. The issue though is Michael Jordan and Nike are now charging $300+ to own a jersey with his name, in fact you can't even create a custom jersey with his name or number on nba website. Learning about this left me with a familiar defeated feeling like when I was younger, to know I probably would never be able to afford / own this jersey. A month or so passed and then through the miraculous wonders of social media I stumbled across Mr. Throw Back, the owner has a captivating personality, and so I browsed his website day in and day out for two months waiting for a Jordan jersey to arrive. The day finally came where a Michael Jordan #45 size XL jersey became available, I immediately purchased the jersey even though I wear a size large. I was thrilled with my new purchase, but only to find 12 hours later they got a #23 jersey size large in stock, just my luck lol. I reached out nervously to the store through social media to see if they would be so kind as to change out my jersey for a proper size. The customer service was so friendly & helpful, they worked with me to locate the exact one I wanted from their inventory, and thus helped to ensure my life long search for this jersey was complete. They have earned a lifetime customer, I can't say thank you enough to Mr. Throw Back. Even as I type this I'm already eyeing which jersey to pick up next lol! If you're in the area or far away like myself and looking for the best place to purchase a true authentic throwback from a place with terrific customer service, then look no further pass Mr. Throw Back! read more

Hands down one of my favorite stores in the East Village! I have yet to go back after my first visit but I stayed there for almost an hour one evening! There is the most amazing old school jerseys and some seriously sick jackets that I deeply fell in love with. I was told the owner works with a celebrity stylist and has some incredible one-of-a-kind pieces (take my word). I regret not buying a couple! And let me not forget his amazing collection of Super Nintendo games! We even played a bit :D I was a little rusty, but overall had an amazing experience! If you're looking for some real classic authentic vintage pieces, and a true East Village experience stop by Mr Throwback. read more

If i could give this place 6 stars i would. Awesome service. These guys really know what they're talking about and selling. Real vintage shit. Not this new age vintage shit people try pulling off. Really great guys here. Really great stuff. Check this place out. You won't regret it!!!!! read more

Fantastic neighborhood shop for all your throwback needs. Super friendly chill staff. Swing by and see for yourself.

Love Mr. Throwback - the owner (Mike? Sorry if I'm forgetting) always hooks it up with some stickers and stuff. It's all authentic, deadstock stuff so I'm confused why some reviewers are saying its expensive? You want a throwback Michael Jordan UNC jersey, don't expect it to be $25 bucks. Prices are negotiable, get a couple items and he'll shave money off for sure. Dope little spot, glad to see they're moving to a bigger place. read more

Best place to get your sports loving boy friend a gift! read more

Mr Throw Back - Amaaaazing!! - Thrift Stores Near Me - New York, New York

Best Store in NYC. Super nice. Super helpful. Treated me to a cold cup of water after running back for a shirt. Will definitely return!

Mr. Throw Back has all the dopest vintage sports gear. It is by far the coolest sports clothing store I've ever been to. You can spend hours searching through the most classic vintage jerseys in sports history. What's your favorite sport? He's got it. Who is your favorite team? He's got it. Who was your favorite player growing up? He's got it. Who is your favorite player now? Yep you guessed it, he's got it. When my husband and I went to the store visiting from Arizona we got to meet THE Mr. Throw Back and he was the coolest dude and had us cracking up. We absolutely loved the store and love Mr. Throw Back himself. Now that we are back in AZ we stay up to date on all of the sickest gear by following him on instagram! read more

This place makes me feel like the guy that owns the place. Just gather a bunch of stuff from his childhood home and is selling it. But it's extremely homely and lovely. It's perfect for your friends that are classic knicks fans or just in love with their childhood. The owner is super super chill. I literally left the place wanting to go back in and just hang out with him. It's worth a look if you love 80-90s stuff. read more

Small store, but every inch of the place will definitely bring back a sense of nostalgia. I'm from San Diego and I don't think we even have a place like this. I couldn't believe some of the stuff they had! Old school NBA jerseys, Nintendo game cartridges to FUBU jackets. Yea, I said FUBU! haha. The guys that work here are friendly and funny! They'll definitely point out some things that they feel you would be interested in. If you're a kid of the 80's/ 90's, you need to stop by. It'll have you feeling like a kid again. read more

Mr. Throwback has some pretty dope t-shirts, jackets, snapbacks and OG sneakers. Come here if you're looking for any retro gear or just to see his awesome Space Jam collection! read more

Let me start by saying the term "curated" should be reserved for museums only, but Mr. Throwback can be thought of as a museum of sorts. The sports and pop culture products available here are indeed curated with great care by the owner Mike. There isn't any Mitchell & Ness or retro-style products here. Just the authentic, of-the-era used and deadstock jerseys, jackets, crew necks and sports/pop culture collectibles. A trip to this place is just that: a trip back into your childhood bedroom circa 1994. They carry everything you remember from back in the day and some stuff you forgot about. Cannot stress how necessary a place like this is. Get your ass to the East Village not now, but right now! read more

Great store in the heart of the East Village. Mike (owner) is a cool dude, and he has a large collection of old school jerseys, warm up gear, tshirts, kicks, etc from the four major sports (yes I included hockey) to impress you. His collection is very unique. Never seen anything like it. Prices are very reasonable, and even if you do not buy anything it is great jog down memory lane to the sports scene of the 80s and 90s. read more

I got a really cool old school Michigan (my alma mater) sweatshirt from here. The owner was really friendly and helpful. They have a bunch of cool things in there from the 80's and 90's, from old school Knicks gear to fresh Bill Cosby Coogi sweaters. It is definitely worth checking out. A great one-of-a-kind addition to the neighborhood! read more

When I was a kid, I'd tell my older relatives that 'when I was big I used to drive them to work'...this place brings me BACK to those very days. read more

I hit this spot in my East Village thrift crawl, and I was very impressed with the store's collection and employees. They mostly have jerseys, sports jackets, and vintage collectable toys, so I didn't buy anything. Still, everything is organized impeccably and the staff was so friendly and helpful. I asked if they had anything Detroit themed and the guy went in the back storage and brought me a few things to look at. Highly recommend if you're looking for sports-related stuff. read more

This store is very important!!! I love MR. throwback! This is my go to unique shop for the sports fans in my life and for my own love of sporty menswear. Perfect for those who are nostalgic for 90's sportswear. They have a great selection of vintage t shirts, champion sweatshirts, track jackets and he's always got killer LOONEY TUNES merch on hand. YOU HAD ME AT SPACE JAM. Not only is the inventory exceptionally fly the sporty decor and seamless layout are welcoming and easy to navigate. However you won't need to do too much digging if the shops madcap owner MIke is in. Mike knows his inventory and he's ready to wheel and deal. He's a zany jokester enthusiastic about his product and fun to shop from! The type of character essential to what has always made the east village the quirky enclave it is! We need more businesses like Mr. Throwback and more dudes like Mike in the east village! Shop here for a true New York "throw back" read more

Holy Moly is this store COOL! What an epic curated collection of vintage! You don't need to be a sports fan to even enjoy all the things Mr Throwback has to offer! Not only is the staff fun, friendly and helpful, The owner Mike, himself treats everyone like royalty. Every time I go in i leave laughing and smiling- perfect destination for a dose of nostalgia. My T-shirt collection from this place is growing by the day! Thanks Mike and Crew! read more

Probably the most awesome place in the east village. I got two badass Knicks jerseys for close to nothing...Mike, you rock!

Awesome store with a pretty great selection! Got a really cool shirt and the owner was super friendly. Definitely a place to find vintage jersey's and snap backs. read more

My husband and I had a blast shopping here over the holiday.Got a sick NOS Sox shirt for him. Friendly and knowledgable staff. Will make this place one of our regular stops. read more

First off I want to say that this little store has lots of cool items specifically for me their sports jersey's the problem is they are over priced, many of the jersey's I saw in this place can be had on ebay for half the price, secondly the prices are high because of the location which I usually avoid. I wanted to check this place out and I decided to go when I got there it was closed at 1230 pm with a silly clock sign on the door saying they had left for lunch and would be back in an hour? not great practice if you ask me, especially when you have customers sitting outside waiting for you to eat lunch for an hour while the store is closed. I would say this store is great for tourists and people who shop with their eyes only. Beware dont show up at lunch time and prices are very expensive in this place make sure you check around before dropping $$$ in this place, just sayin. read more

I'm no longer a Jets fan, but when I was, I purchased a lot of Old School Jets gear from Mr. Throwback. Also, as a big R.L. Stein fan, I enjoyed purchasing some Goosebump Books. If you're walking around the east village stop by this place for a good laugh and nostalgia. Also, Mike the owner is the man. read more

Fun store, though very small. The guys running the shop the day I visited were friendly and found an item for me in the back. Lots of apparel, mostly pro and Northeast-based. Not a ton of selection of toys and the like. Prices seemed fair but not bargains, necessarily. It's definitely worth a visit, especially if you're a NYC sports fan. read more

Nice guys and nice gear. We got a couple of hats. Mike has a lot of old school knowledge, we even chatted about skateboards.

Just got insane stuff from here. Amazing service and amazing inventory. Ridiculous NYG gear
