  I went to F as in Frank looking for vintage military stock and I was not disappointed. They have a variety of shirts and light jackets from both Canadian and US military, and a few from the German army. I was hoping there would be the same selection of pants, but what's available is Frank's in-house cut-and-sew label made from old scraps of vintage fabrics.
  
  The curation of products is top notch. The majority of their stock is from the 80s and 90s, but a few pieces are older. You'll find lots of Made in USA Levi's, Lee, and the occasional Ralph Lauren, and Canadian-made GWG denim. I'm also a fan of well washed and worn-in sweatshirts, which are abundant but not in my size.
  
  There is a section in the back called the "Rag Machine" where garments are untagged, unwashed, derelict, and sold by the weight (lbs)—I do not recommend; the goods are out front.
  
  Anyone looking to incorporate retro and vintage pieces should consider F as in Frank. I don't visit nearly as much as I'd like.

  Pricey as a discount price of urban outfitters' stuff but this one has more variety, vibes and colors on clothes.

  Pretty expensive for basically the same clothes you can get at Value Village. $18 for an old trucker hat. Some funky old things though if you're into that kind of stuff.
