I will admit, I didn’t think Porto would be the main attraction in my Portugal travel itinerary—I was wrong. The city know for its Port dessert wine, the Douro river, and Festa de São João do Porto (plan to be there June 23 to not miss this street festival), also houses great food, bars for nighttime, bars for daytime (I like bars), and a vibrant Porto shopping scene.
See my top vintage, used, thrift, and sustainable clothing store picks below.
All shops and markets can be easily accessed via this Porto Guide Finds Google Maps List to take along on your next trip.
1. MON PERE VINTAGE
I walked past Mon Père Vintage every time I went to and from my Airbnb without knowing this vintage treasure trove existed. Don’t miss this Porto shopping secondhand find like I almost did. Check out the floor-length vintage dresses, bathing suits, patterned blouses, and every-color-of-the-rainbow Levi’s selection. You will probably need to buy and pack an extra vintage, used suitcase home.

Location: Rua da Conceição 80, 4050-317 Porto, Portugal

2. ORNITORRINCO
Cool hats. Chill prices. Chris tore his Achilles before the trip but that won’t stop him from getting more attention through a “look-at-me” wind breaker. Multiple Sizes and jean colors at 25€. Need a jersey? A colorful windbreaker? Come here. Ornitorrinco
If you are in need of a neon bathing suit or windbreaker, go to Ornitorrinco. The shop brings back the 80s and 2000s with used sports caps, jerseys, and Converse. After you leave your Porto shopping with a few finds, you will look perfect for your next Fresh Prince of Bel-Air or Clueless-themed party.

Hours: 10am – 1pm, 2pm – 7pm daily
Location: Portugal, Rua da Assunção 7, 4050-070 Porto, Portugal
3. MÃO ESQUERDA VINTAGE
Don’t let the size fool you. The small shop knows how to curate—for men and women. 25€ everyday dress. The men’s selection (almost) matches the amount of women’s goods. Now all I need is a velvet green couch to match. (Nordstrom shoes, 20€.) Mão Esquerda Vintage
Mão Esquerda Vintage’s killer curation makes up for its small size. (Don’t miss it on your Porto shopping journey!) The collection includes men’s and women’s items from the 40s to 80s. I loved the vintage green velvet Nordstrom heels, flower-print shirts, and men’s jean jackets.

4. CET OBJET DU DÉSIR – VINTAGE CLOTHING & ACCESSORIES
The store houses vintage wears and more modern secondhand finds. Old perfume bottles, hand mirrors, earrings, and scarves—I’d want all of these as souvenirs. For incase you forgot to pack your vintage nighty. (Furry slippers for sale too!) 100s of vintage frames. Cet Objet du Désir – Vintage Clothing & Accessories
This vintage Porto shopping spot includes all the regulars— dresses, blouses, pants, scarves—but also specializes in unique finds like vintage lingerie, slippers, eye glasses, jewelry, perfume bottles, hair clips, hand mirrors, lipstick tubes, and more.
You can also grab a vintage babydoll nightgown for yourself and a souvenir your best friend may actually keep.

5. HUMANA PORTUGAL
Rainbows all around. No worries if you forgot to pack sandals. Bright colored secondhand pieces from local mall stores. HUMANA Portugal
HUMAMA is less vintage, and more recent, secondhand, thrift clothing and shoes for less. Everything is 3€.
The secondhand chain found across Portugal is also a nonprofit promoting environment textile reuse and funding (education, agricultural development, and more) projects in Africa and Portugal.
If you didn’t pack enough tops or forgot a pair of heals and don’t want to spend $$$ on something new—this is the place to go during your Porto shopping.
