Who are Vintage Threads?
Founded in 2016, Vintage Threads are one of Europe's leading vintage retailers operating across both online and physical stores.
Every piece that we sell has been handpicked from around the world and we typically sell a highly curated selection of both designer and sportswear from the 80s, 90s and early 00s.
The VT Rework department was established in 2019 and is a massively evolving facet of the business with our daily mission to reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry by reworking damaged items to create some truly unique pieces.
Our team is full of passionate, energetic and ambitious people who are truly passionate about vintage and the story we are trying to tell through our pieces and we would love whoever fills this position to share this passion.
Following our recent partnerships with adidas and up and coming partnership with one of the biggest footwear retailers in the UK, the opportunities within the business are huge.
