Second hand shopping in Helsinki?

[Arug]

Please! I want to find something good.
Not those 80's baggy clothes.
Tell me where to shop for vintage in Helsinki and Stockholm.
Thanks.

Second hand + Stockholm = hand in glove

first of all : http://www.aos.se/Sok.aspx?cid=0&kid=0&type=1&query=bastasecondhand
Allt om Stockholm lists the best second hand stores in Stockholm.

I'd vouch for the Påkläderiet and Myrorna. Lisa Larsson may be cult but it's very hard to find anything of real value, especially since some suckers seem to hang there all the bloody time.. Best way to find good vintage cloths in Stockholm is just to thrawl the streets and enter most shops since stock is very pending week to week. Just bring a Swedish friend and happy go lucky!

ps. thrawling the streets is a hobby for april-may .ds

Forgot

It might be very off-topic but we've got some very nice unestablished designer shops in Stockholm as well. They have reasonable prices for nice cloths so that's something you dont want to miss.

In Helsinki there's a shop called Ruuturouva (Fredrinkatu 16) which is quite good, they don't always have a lot of stuff but I found a really cute Jil Sander dress there once and they have a lot of nice jewelry.
Play it again sam (Rauhankatu 2) is good if you're looking for clothes from a certain era, '60s, '70s etc.
Also Ivana Helsinki (Merimiehenkatu 22) and Nanso (Mikonkatu 2) are good for the vintage look.
Hope this helped!
