Lots of treasures and super helpful staff. I picked up a gorgeous over-sized costume ring and it was very reasonably priced. Excited to go back for bday and Galentines gifts!

My go to spot for any costumes for themed parties. They offer rentals and consignment. I have been coming here for years! I have been able to sell them old prom dresses, get amazing top notch costumes for events, and even purchase some killer accessories. I highly recommend you check out the Nitty Gritty for any of your consignment, high end vintage, and costume needs. PSA they are not a thrift shop! ❤️?

I enjoy going here & the store next it while I wait for my reservation at Big Bad Breakfast! This place has great prices for very special vintage clothing. All different types of styles & unique colors. They have an upper floor for men’s with all types of suits & button ups. Lots of hats as well. Downstairs, they have tons of dresses, blouses, pants etc. Really cool jewelry. Whoever fills the store & chooses what clothing to put inside both of the stores have very authentic taste. In my opinion, these stores are the most vintage & affordable it can get in Louisville.

This is hands down my favorite (and also one of the best) vintage shops not only in Louisville, but that i’ve ever been to! The curated pieces are always in great condition, the variety of pieces they have is amazing, and the whole staff is so welcoming and knowledgeable. Literally over half of my wardrobe is from here and I always leave with something one of a kind when I stop by!

I have always loved this vintage store and whenever I have visitors it’s always on my list of go-tos in Louisville. I have purchased some of my favorite clothing pieces here. The owner is always so friendly and I always have a great experience whenever I visit!

The nitty gritty is one of the coolest stores I’ve ever been to. It’s curated vintage, so they have lots of high quality items for reasonable prices. This store sells beautiful vintage clothing and accessories, they have a large collection of awesome, rentable costumes, which is such a sustainable and creative idea for a store to do! I’m so happy to have another lovely small business with kind owners and employees on Barret Avenue!

They are like a retail store. High prices for used clothing and items. Fat Rabbit next door is much more reasonable.

The store is very cute and has a great selection, but the best part was the owner! She was incredibly sweet and helpful! I rented a dress for New Year's Eve even though I'm from out of town, and instead of charging me a fee or having me put down an extra deposit she just made sure I had a little extra time to mail the dress back! Definitely worth a visit whether you're from Louisville or not!

We found this place on yelp and decided to stop by. We parked on the street. This is a two story building. The things they have in here are very unique. They also rent tuxedos and costumes. Very organized store. I purchased some stuff for my teenager. They had a lot of unique stuff. Reasonable priced. Overall had a good experience.

They had neat stuff and the girls working that day were very friendly, but the prices were way more than retail.

The Nitty Gritty is a used clothing shop and costume rental store located on a Popular row of shops and bars off Barret Ave in Lousiville, Kentucky. I went shopping a few weeks back with my 5 girls and some friends when we stopped into this shop. The building walking in will Give you big time nostalgia vibes. Lots of oldest clothing styles and vintage items to browse in this two level shop. The men's department is upstairs and the costume rental area is in the very rear. When back there be sure to look in the rafters for some old school child terrorizing animal mascot heads that are fun to check out. On our trip here my oldest found a 50s retro looking swim suit that she fell in love with. It was reasonably priced so we made the purchase. Overall a pretty cool shop that was fun to browse and brought a blast from the past feeling for me personally. Only strange thing was there was rack with an old uofl mascot hoodie my second oldest wanted but it wasn't priced yet so they simply said "not for sale".
