About Me


In case some of you weren't notified yet. Our physical location here in Chicago has closed. Unfortunately, we won't be re-opened for a while.
Until then, we will be selling on our site LAYERCHICAGO.COM. At first there may only be a link to our auctions, but before long, those of you who do not have an eBay account, will be able to buy from us directly off the website!
This website will sell 1000's of items, with detailed photos, and measurements. So, along with the convenience of shopping by your size and style, you can lay drunk in bed and pick up your favorite things without fighting the crowd.
We'll send out a bulletin and messages notifying you of it's launch.
I also wanted to answer a question I keep getting, "Whats with the bear?"
Well, listen up my darlings.
I've always had a fascination with wildlife. The one thing I have noticed growing up is the misunderstanding that stems from rumors, especially about certain animals.....of course this is usually the result of fear, or trying to decipher the unknown.
Within the next few years, Layer will serve as a main source of income to provide a santuary for North American wildlife. After the intentional goal is reached, we can begin to educate people of the fast paced changes that will impact our surrounding environments.
During my studying, I've come to realize that many things I've known about nature have been falsely converted to truth somewhere along the grapevine. So I'm fixin' to squash that shit.
To shorten this up before The Maury Show comes on....Layer will always be there to provide you with original vintage, and rockin' resale!
We are also so proud that our knowledge of both clothing and nature, can and will be put to good use.
Thanks again to all of our past and future customers, and we'll see you soon!!!!!! -LayerChicago

As a vintage/second hand store, way too many brands make up our typical selection. I tried to list some to give you a better idea, but in this business the stock is forever changing and the names are never ending. On any given day you can come in and see:
Levi's (big E, redline, short horn), Nik-Nik, Wrangler (blue bell), Nike (colored tags, tate/vertical), Puma, Dior, H Bar C, Dobbs, Pendleton, Disney (production), Frye, Schott, Champion (products, reverse weave), your favorite tees (Screen Stars, Artex, Beefy, Downerswear, Sherry's, and so on), Lee (101 and 91-j, Storm Rider), Hot Rear, Osh Kosh, Sears, Big Mac, Penneys, Munsingwear (Grand Slam), Pringle, Adidas, Prep Stop, Converse (Chucks, Purcell, one-stars), Hang Ten, Pucci, Wards, Dickies, Maverick, Dee Cee, Vans, David Crystal, Lacoste, and I give up.
When it comes down to it, I just don't have the finger power.
The merchandise mostly comes from the 50's-80's. Designer or not, dress or casual, boldly colorful or bland-n-faded, to make a long desription short...night and day, there are no limits. We mix it all up, and it's all for you.
