About The Attic
The Attic, founded in 2003, is an independently-owned business located in Manayunk and Bethlehem, PA that sells modern and vintage clothing and jewelry for men and women at affordable prices that are a fraction of what you would pay for similar styles at the mall. All of the clothing at The Attic is sold to us by sellers and consigners. Customers also have the option of “trading” clothing to us for 55% of the retail value placed on an item in store credit. We buy seasonal clothing every day of the week on a first come first served basis. Because we buy, trade, and consign clothing every day, there is a constant flow of new inventory coming into the store. Every time you shop at The Attic, it is a new experience.
