About IntiVintage
Welcome to IntiVintage!
We’re more than just a vintage store – we’re a place where memories, style, and sustainability come together to create something truly special. At IntiVintage, our mission is simple: to help each customer find their “forever piece,” that unique find they’ll treasure for years to come. We believe that every garment has a story, and we’re here to help you discover it.
Our Story
Founded with a passion for vintage fashion and a love for sustainable style, IntiVintage has grown into a vibrant community of vintage enthusiasts, creatives, and conscious shoppers. What started as a small endeavor has evolved into a movement, attracting vintage lovers from all over. Each month, our team of pickers – led by founders Christian and Evelyna Zambrana – spends hours curating an eclectic mix of vintage gems to bring our customers unique finds with character, quality, and charm.
What Sets Us Apart
At IntiVintage, we’re dedicated to creating an engaging, fun, and welcoming shopping experience. From our regular Bin Sales to our pop-up events, we bring together people who share a love for vintage style, personal expression, and community. We’re proud to go beyond the typical thrift store vibe, offering curated pieces, knowledgeable stylists, and a lively atmosphere where everyone feels at home.
Our team is the heart and soul of IntiVintage. Each associate brings their own creativity, energy, and style expertise, ensuring that every customer receives personalized attention and leaves with a piece that feels just right. Our values of inclusivity, creativity, and hard work drive everything we do, making IntiVintage more than just a place to shop – it’s a place to belong.
A Quiet Impact on Sustainability
While our focus is on sharing the best in vintage fashion, our work has a positive environmental impact. By selling second-hand and upcycled items, we’re doing our part to reduce waste and extend the life of quality garments. Each piece we save from the landfill is a small victory against fast fashion, and over the years, our impact has grown:
- 2021 – 10,432 pieces saved
- 2022 – 19,364 pieces saved
- 2023 – 23,114 pieces saved
- 2024 – 28,071 pieces saved
Though we don’t make this a focal point of our brand, we’re proud to play a role in the green revolution and contribute to a more sustainable future. Every sale at IntiVintage is a quiet step toward reducing consumption and supporting a healthier planet.
Why We Do What We Do
Vintage fashion isn’t just about clothes – it’s about expression, nostalgia, and finding joy in something unique. We exist to bring people closer to this joy by offering timeless pieces that speak to individual style and personality. We want every visit to IntiVintage to feel like stepping into a time machine, full of treasures from the past ready to become part of your present.
Our Goal? To create an unforgettable shopping experience where people can explore, express, and find their forever pieces, all while supporting a sustainable fashion future.
