El Thrift sells vintage and pre-loved clothing in Paris, Ontario, with a focus on styles for young adults. It also accepts selected clothing through consignment and buying appointments.

About

Founded in 2020 by mother-and-daughter team Heather and Ella, El Thrift combines second-hand fashion with current trends. Its stock includes vintage pieces and contemporary brands, with availability changing as items come in and sell.

How it works

  • Visit the Paris shop to browse the current selection, and check its latest opening hours before travelling.

  • To sell clothing, review the consignment information and arrange an appointment. Acceptance depends on the shop’s current needs and the items offered.

  • The published policy gives consignors 40% of the selling price and a six-week selling period. Unsold items may be collected or donated; confirm the current terms when booking.

  • The shop may offer cash on the spot for selected items. This is not guaranteed for every brand or garment.

Why it’s low-waste

Buying and consigning pre-loved clothing keeps wearable garments in circulation. Choosing second-hand items instead of new ones can reduce demand for new production.

Good for

  • Vintage and current-style pre-loved clothing

  • Young-adult fashion

  • Consignment and selective clothing resale

  • Paris and Brant County shoppers
