Tucson Thrift Culture

Tucson Thrift Culture, it’s the treasure hunt of the 21st century.

Younger generations have started to get into hobbies requiring craft and sustainability. Thrifting happens to be one of them. Tucson is known for its big art scene especially with all the markets and street fairs, a big population of the crowd is the resellers and thrifts of the city, that look for clothing and have a deep understanding for the fashion scene and what’s in trend. Thrifting not only is a trendy hobby, but it overall benefits the planet and environment which is a bigger issue currently, with climate change, these thrifters want to make a difference with their business.
