About Circle Vintage
Circle Vintage is a small, family-run vintage boutique housed in a listed building on Saddler Street, one of Durham's oldest shopping streets. It offers what it describes as the city's largest collection of true vintage, retro and pre-loved designer clothing, along with accessories, making it a destination for shoppers seeking distinctive second-hand and period pieces rather than new high-street stock.
The shop's setting in a historic Saddler Street building suits its character, and its stock changes regularly as pieces come and go. As an independent trader it sits among the yards, cafes and small shops that give this part of the old city its identity, close to the market place and cathedral. It appeals to those interested in sustainable, pre-loved fashion as much as to collectors and students looking for something individual.
