Want to turn up the heat in your wardrobe without heating up the planet? The Magic City may have year round hot weather, but we’ve found eleven of the best thrift stores in Miami with the coolest clothing.
But why shop second-hand in this sunny state, you ask?
Because who doesn’t want to be part of the circular economy prioritizing a reduce-reuse-recycle mentality. Plus, 20% of Miami residents’ garbage by mass last year consisted of textiles and other hazardous waste (up from 16% in 2010).
To make the most of your Miami thrifting adventures you’re going to need to turn the heat up on your game plan though. Check out our article on thrift shopping tips (or watch the highlights below) so you can maximize your Miami Magic thrifted scores.
And if you’re traveling elsewhere in Florida, we have resources onTampa thrifting and thrifting in Orlando, too.
