Rokit

Indeed this is like an Aladdin's cave of vintage clothes. They have obviously stocked up recently as the huge place was packed with 80s gems. They have an extensive collection of guys clothes too, which makes a change from the other retro stores who's men's section is just a iced cherry on the top.

They have great winter jumpers in there and some amazing sparkly party dresses for parties and wot not. One thing you'll have to bear in mind with the shoes (mainly the ladies) is that you'll have to get them re-heeled pretty much as soon as you wear them out. They don't last. But once you have taken them to a good cobbler, you'll be sorted.

If you like vintage then you will like looking round this shop, however you might well stop and think "why I am paying such high prices"? There is definetly an extensive range of all styles of vintage clothing, but £15 for a belt seems a bit much. This store is in the centre of Covent Garden so can probably get away with charging above the odds, especially with vintage being so in vogue.

I'd definetly go here for some inspiration as the way the store is laid out is cool and always looks good, but it may well be worth seeing if you can find something similar in your local charity shop for a whole lot less money. I do see things I like but I cant bare to part with my hard earned cash when I know there are cheaper alternatives out there.

I have been scowering the streets of London in search of good vintage clothing and stumbled across Rokit the other day.The clothing available has evidently been discarded by the pickiest ex-owners in the world and is very cheap. Jeans, army jackets, cowboy boots, belts and hats make this vintage shop as good as they get...the in-store music is also very good (red hot chili peppers etc.) and complements the shopping experience.
