Two years ago I vowed to only buy vintage clothing (with exceptions for under garments, shoes and concert swag). Two years later, I haven't bought any clothes! The problem is that vintage clothing for men is a really bad shopping experience, at least in DC. Few retail stores and the ones that do exist only seem to have clothes from a groovy era or a less fashionable, probably slightly older set. (I'm in my 40s. I like my clothes on the slimmer side.) The vintage option is so much more possible for women.
