Shopping vintage and "vintage" clothing in London

So, what I found from London was two jackets. They both are from Brick Lane second hand markets. For the jeans jacket I paid faaar to much (£45) but for the army jacket I paid only £5. Still I'm happy about the jeans jacket as well because I finally found just the right material for my jeans vest. It is the right color, hardly used, small enough and of course Levi's. Bigger and more used ones I could have gotten for £20-25 but as I am so short legged I feel that tight upper part fits me better.

I seem to have this little perversion to 90's style. Maybe I am trying to feel like
15 years old forever. Anyhow, here's two new modification projects.
...As if I wouldn't have unfinished projects enough.

Around the Spitalfields and Brick Lane, as well as at the Camden Town Stable markets, you can find tens of second hand stores. But the thing with the vintage markets and shops in London is that they sell everything as vintage but actually most of them are just recycled clothing. But they surely always have vintage prices.

I found some cool stuff and of course some of the best items are real vintage. But I am totally not going to pay for used T-shirt £18 or square pattern shirt £20. Only the shoes were maybe in more sensible prices, it makes more sense to pay £20 for leather shoes than a pullover.

Even though I am 100% pro recycling, it is stupid to pay more for a recycled product than what you would have to pay for an exactly same product but new. So, in this case I am going to wait that I will find something similar from the flea markets here in Munich or elsewhere.

If you are looking for a vintage shopping experience with more realistic recycled clothing prices I recommend the Colours shop in Berlin. (They also have the vintage part with more pricy stuff.) ...I'll visit Berlin in June so more about Berlin second hand shopping then. In the meanwhile I found: Top 10 vintage stores in Berlin.
