It doesn’t take long to know a good majority of thrift stores in Detroit by name and face. Not to mention, each has its own unique meaning to thrifting as displayed in their creative store names.
Michigan and the city of Detroit have birthed several initiatives over the past couple of years to support a circular economy with a sustainable mindset. Summer in Detroit has shown us style and sustainability in reinventive ways.
