LE PORTRAIT
An address with a clear point of view.
The Manchego has set up shop at 22 rue de Beaune with a clear vision: curated vintage, not bulk stock. Jules, who runs the boutique, has an eye for tailored pieces — suits, structured coats, sharply cut jackets, pleated trousers, shirts and shoes with character. The result is a warm space where each piece has been sourced with intention, far removed from the usual clutter of typical thrift stores.
The 7th arrondissement isn't the most obvious vintage neighbourhood in Paris, which makes discovering this address all the more rewarding. The boutique scores 9/10 on Fripmap and a perfect Google rating, which fairly captures the atmosphere: relaxed, passionate, unpretentious. Two practical tips before you visit: if you need alterations, plan to have them done elsewhere, and follow Jules on Instagram so you don't miss new arrivals.
« Je ne laisse pas souvent d’avis Google, mais Jules mérite largement celui-ci. Jules, le propriétaire de la boutique, est un homme charmant et passionné par les beaux vêtements vintage. Il réserve toujours un accueil irréprochable et prodigue des conseils sincères et avisés. Il s’efforce en permanence de dénicher de très belles pièces pour sa boutique. Certes, cela peut rapidement faire monter la note, mais la qualité est au rendez-vous et cela en vaut largement la peine. »
