Shopping and markets

Shopping

Vind it

Everything old is new again at Vind It, a vintage shop in the Jordaan that carries men and women’s clothing from brands such as Ben Sherman, as well as handbags and purses, shoes, accessories, jewellery and a collection of alternative music.

Six and Sons

This concept store is home to an extensive collection of products, ranging from clothes and furniture to vintage magazines. The owners of Six and Sons travel throughout Europe on the look-out for quality vintage products, whether it be Han Kjobenhavn sunglasses or byMutti crockery (inspired by traditional naval tattoos).

Laundry Industry

Amsterdam’s Laundry Industry is a high-end womens- and menswear label, known for high-quality, luxurious materials and subtle colours and prints. Interesting details often add a special twist to the garments.

DENHAM

One of the figureheads of Amsterdam’s push towards becoming the denim capital of Europe, Denham was founded by the English ‘jeans maker’ Jason Denham in 2008. In addition to new twists and classic takes on the hallowed trousers, Denham sells jackets, jersey shirts and other garments.

OGÉR Amsterdam

Oger is a high-end department store for classic menswear, founded by Oger Lusink in 1989 in Amsterdam’s prestigious PC Hooftstraat. The shop stocks a wide variety of clothes in four departments:  ‘Dressed for Success’, offering ready-to-wear suits, jackets, tuxedoes, shoes and handmade shirts; ‘Informal’, with an emphasis on smart-casual clothing; ‘Atelier Italia’, offering a choice of exclusive Italian brands; and ‘The Boardroom’, offering a tailor-made wardrobe.

BonBon Boutique

Amsterdam-based jewellery maker Bonne van der Ree makes a range of charming, yet cool pieces, often using what she calls “filled gold”: a core of brass covered with a very thick layer of gold. She combines this with semi-precious stones or Swarovski crystals, but the most beautiful pieces incorporate quirky vintage finds such as orange glass pearls: delicate elegance with a raw edge.

MHOOM

Get a new hairstyle and a new outfit at MHOOM, a clothing store and hair salon in one location. The shop focuses on eco-friendly fashion and organic beauty products, carrying local and sustainable brands such as Alchemist and Modern Druids.

Ace & Tate

Named for the cellulose acetate from which the majority of its frames are formed, glasses company Ace & Tate cuts costs by eliminating third parties and middlemen to provide an online glasses service (including prescription lenses) for just €110. And these aren’t your average NHS frames: affordable, stylish and high quality, they’re cool classics in the making.

Het Huysraat

Known affectionately by locals as the ‘living room of the west’, this homely concept store sells a stylish selection of homeware from a range of established designers and up and coming local talent. You’ll find cool Scandinavian brands such as Muuto, Normann Copenhagen and HAY alongside Dutch brands like Pure, Pepe Heykoop folding vases, arty wallpaper from NLXL and Seletti neon letters.

Het Faire Oosten

Het Faire Oosten is a big, colourful and inviting shop in Oostpoort where every product meets three conditions: good for the earth, good for the maker and good for the consumer.

Markt Plein 40-45

This general market in the Geuzenveld district features the beautiful 'liberation' Carillon on the square. This carillon is 'gathered together' by the population and gives a beautiful sound over the market every half hour. The market on Plein 40-45, behind the carillon, is open from Tuesday to Saturday.

Lambertus Zijlplein Market

Market where various goods are sold on Mondays from 09.00-17.30.

Blow Dry / Brow Bar

Whether it’s a cut and colour or a mani and a pedi you’re after, Blow Dry / Brow Bar in De Pijp has plenty to offer. This team of professionals has extensive knowledge of the best beauty techniques available. First class service, personal attention, expert advice, and professional treatments all come together to make sure you look your best.

Babassu Beauty Boutique

If you’re in need of a little pampering, you’d do well to drop into Babassu Beauty Boutique for one of their signature treatments. This city spa and niche perfumery won ‘Best Spa 2018’ in the Dutch Beauty Awards, and it’s where you’ll find luxury and organic skincare products. Think Italian label Santa Maria Novella, Tata Harper, ByTerry, Nudestix, Lorenzo Villoresi, and Perricone MD. They also have a location in Amsterdam-Zuid.

Natureskins Spa

Specialising in vegan and all-natural skin treatments, this new city spa and natural beauty shop on Rozengracht is highly recommended for fans of clean beauty and green cosmetics, with names such as Absolution, Dr Baumann, Nuori, and Naif gracing the racks. Try one of their treatments, including manicures, facials and luxury services for maximum pampering.

14-Portabella-Paddestoelen

Noordermarkt

The Noordermarkt is a cosy and colourful market of international allure. A market with a historical background dating back to the 17th century. Despite the long history of almost 400 years Noordermarkt Amsterdam (1623-2023), the merchants on the Noordermarkt have adapted to the demands of the modern consumer. Started with pots, pans, and a patch market, the Noordermarkt is still an attractive market, inspiring many visitors and can be described as an experience.
