The name says it all. At Buy Kilo you get to literally buy clothes by the kilo. Tony Vespa does it for pizza, so why not fashion? Founder by Meytal Dror and Gali Lerner, Buy Kilo is Tel Aviv's best secondhand store in terms of value for money. With a huge selection of vintage jackets, retro pullovers and at-the-house loungewear, Buy Kilo promise to offer clothes for any occasion. Its located in an abandoned pharmacy that was remodeled by architect Yehuda Gedaliah and really gives off the vibe of going back to an era when clothes, and everything else, were considerably more affordable. That still rings true at Buy Kilo where prices range from 10-40 NIS per 100 grams of cloth, depending on the material. A rotating inventory is graciously extended by the Buy Kilo staff, who always seem to have a cocktail robe lying around somewhere.
Tel Aviv is no stranger to fashion. With many Israeli designers hitting the world stage, Tel Aviv is becoming more and more of a respected name in the industry. But designer brands are expensive and target almost exclusively female audiences. Nevertheless, men need a way to fashionably express themselves as well, preferably without overstressing the already challenging Tel Aviv living expenses. One of the best alternatives is vintage and secondhand shopping. Eclectic fashion is in, and Tel Aviv is one of the top cities to offer its buyers a wide range of unique and diverse fashion; and not just for women. So ditch H&M and head to these funky and unique secondhand gems to add a little sensation to your style: without breaking your budget.
