metropolis metropolis — Fri, 27 Sep 2019 23:01:13 +0000

Have you watched the new WU-TANG docu-drama yet? We’re proud to have a hand in things as they came to us for some vintage ’90s clothing to set the scene properly. Staff member and #1 Wu-Tang fan Larry remembers it well: “Oh my god. Carhartt, like the button down style. Polo stuff, a lot of Polo stuff but not out of the box. Nothing crazy. If you see any generic Polo on there, it’s ours. Polo collared shirts, they bought a few of those. Nautica. Anything Nautica on the show. A lot of colorful stuff.”

Be BOLD in a VINTAGE 1970’s POLYESTER SHIRT from METROPOLIS VINTAGE!

metropolisvintage — Fri, 25 Aug 2017 00:00:56 +0000

The patterned polyester shirt first came to prominence during the 1970’s disco era as a true staple of manliness and virility. Like the peacock displaying it’s plumage, the bright colors and psychedelic patterns are designed to hypnotize and seduce one’s mate. Things have not changed much in the ensuing four decades, as the polyester shirt still works it’s magic over the fairer sex. We, Metropolis Vintage, realize the power of a fine, fitted, garish 1970’s polyester shirt and therefore have a massive rack of them for you to enjoy. Stop in and grab one now and be a delight to eyeballs everywhere!

Cool CAMEL Cigarette Clothes Collection at Metropolis Vintage!

metropolisvintage — Wed, 19 Apr 2017 23:45:58 +0000

Do you remember the era of CAMEL cash? Attached to each Camel cigarette pack about be a certain amount of $$ with Joe Camel in the center, eventually redeemable for anything from hats, to T-Shirts, to a pool table. My Uncle was the king of Camel cigarette collecting and had a mountain of it, with which he could have probably bought a Camel Ferrari. I do rememeber he had a sweet leather bomber jacket. We haven’t found one of those YET – but we’re still looking. In the meantime, Metropolis Vintage has plenty of rare CAMEL Cigarette and Joe Camel T-Shirts and items waiting here for you. Worth checking out and you don’t even have to go back in time and collect all those packs!

Vintage DENIM JACKETS from METROPOLIS – Made to outlast their owner!

metropolisvintage — Sat, 11 Mar 2017 22:59:40 +0000

First created by Levi Strauss in 1873 to serve as a rugged protective layer for prospectors and cowboys, the denim jacket has remained durable, dependable, and popular throughout the years. Don’t take our word for it – a Levis historian recently discovered a jacket dating back to the 1880’s in an abandoned Southern California ghost town. They’re simple, effective and cool, and apparently will even outlast their owner by a century or so. While we’ve got nothing going so far back as the 1880’s, METROPOLIS VINTAGE always has a stock of classic denim jackets waiting on the rack. If they’ve worked for Dennis Hopper and The Marlboro Man, they’ll certainly work for you!
