I’ve seen vintage Knicks merch, old Starter jackets, and graphic tees from brands I forgot existed until I saw them hanging on the wall.

Mr. Throwback specializes in vintage athletic gear, ’90s-era streetwear, old school jerseys, and pop culture pieces that instantly take you back. It’s packed wall to wall with character, and even if you’re not shopping for anything specific, it’s worth stopping in just to look around.

I’ve seen vintage Knicks merch, old Starter jackets, and graphic tees from brands I forgot existed until I saw them hanging on the wall. You can tell the people running it really love the culture they’re curating (most items are in great condition).

If you’re into retro sports, hip-hop style, or just want something with personality and a story behind it, Mr. Throwback is one of the best vintage spots in NYC. It’s like walking into a perfectly preserved time capsule from the ’80s and ’90s.
