MEXTRAÑA

Come here to find great thrift shop finds that have been repurposed and updated by local artists and fashionistas. The clothes can be funky but you’ll find some real gems, additionally the sisters who own it and do all of the work are lovely. I also love that rather than throwing out clothes, they’re recycling so they have a great mission that’s supporting the environment.

An eclectic mix of clothing and accessories! Amazing prices for the uniqueness of their clothes... I love that all items were up-cycled vintage. I wish I could have bought more, alas the burden of making ones suitcase too heavy. And super friendly staff who offered advice on local restaurants for dinner.

Super friendly staff with excellent clothes at a reasonable price, what more can you ask for?

some alright selections. trouble is, on Apr 19, 2018 the woman working there scratched off the price tag of the shirt i was looking at (she said it 'fell off' but it was really blatant that it had been deliberately removed/scratched etc) and then offered me a "deal", which was actually 1000 colones more than the original price of the shirt. for some reason i just bought it anyway, despite the total obviousness of the scam (shame on me i guess), but in retrospect i regret it, so here's a review calling out the underhanded sales tactics used by this establishment. hopefully they'll be less willing to try it again.

Very expensive
