Mostly clothing but a variety of other treasures....a little bit of everything. I noticed a lot of local Oakland stuff. Organized, clean, and fairly priced thrift store. (Ex: jeans were about $10, jackets $12-$18, good condition and quality items...frames and wall art were really reasonably priced). I picked up a framed print for $5 by a local Oakland artist. The employees were pleasant and helpful. Also, the rainbow book wall was mesmerizing.
Love to come by and see what they have to offer. However, service could be better particularly when donating. Last time I donated the clerk went through each of my things and was like “I guess we can take these…”. Like, sheesh.
I have shopped at this location for almost a decade. I’ve never experienced rude service ever! You’ll always find something stylish for you at a great price. Clothes are clean and come in a variety of styles, so there’s always something for everyone. There’s also a splendid variety of novels, books. 😄
A fun and friendly place to shop for unique treasures as well as affordable clothing and home goods. Employees are very nice, there’s always good music playing, and the stock turns over relatively quickly. The shop also has its own convenient, free parking lot.On top of all this, the proceeds go to a good cause and this location regularly offers free HIV testing to the community.
Really cool nonprofit that accepts donations (which is tough to find during COVID) and a friendly staff.Highly recommended.They sometimes do STI testing as well.
This location of the out of the closet thriftstore is quite good.manychoices in both mens &womens clothing plus housewares some furniture,small electric stuff,jewelry,accessories,records & tons of great books.the staff here and at most ootcs are quite friendly.they also take some donations at this location,but check the recieving hours as to not waste a trip.also check what they are currently accepting,so your not waisting time lugging in items they dont take.Happy hunting.
Excellent clothing, regular bargains, and much needed community support. Fitting rooms still closed due to the pandemic, unfortunately
I love this place!! I just found a vintage porcelain jar of the same brand that my husbands parents drink in Sweden. You will NEVER find anything that cool brand new. You never know what kind of story you will stumble on when you go to this place. Plus the staff are SO SOO nice, just lovely humans. Great prices on all used goods. Support re-use. Donate and shop here.
No plus sizes. So much for inclusive
Too busy with conversations while theres a line waiting.
So many good deals. Organjce i Love this location the employes are helpful and super friendly
Was thrilled that a majority of our donations e.g. clothes and a sofa were accepted. They were really surpsie to see the sofa we were donating was in really good condition. I can only imagine the condition of other donations for them to have to say it out loud. Some advice for folks, make sure what you donate is still usable.
I have been shopping here Close to 8 years. I always Enjoy all the different things Available. The Current Staff is Awesome &.Extra Hard Working, Friendly, Helpful and Professional.Thanks for the Advice and Help given when requested.Sincerely, Tonya D.
An extra unique thrift store in the heart of Oakland! Lots of great treasures and great prices! Friendly staff too. Go see what you can find!
The store was ok
Ive been shopping and donating at this store for as long as its been there. Since the store re-opened after our initial lock-down theres a new manager. She is so unfriendly Im doubting whether I want to continue going there. Ive never seen her smile or heard her say hello. Just today, and not for the first time, I heard her tell a lady who wanted to donate that, Were not taking any more donations today. It was nowhere near closing time nor did she even take the time to look at the ladys donations. For a store that depends on donations and whose stock doesnt appear to be refreshed very often lately, this doesnt seem the best option. Its a thrift store raising money for a worthy cause not a boutique in the movie, Pretty Woman.
Lots of good finds for a surprisingly small place! Prices are fair.
Great prices and great books.
Well this was my experience today. I checked the company website to see if they would be open and it said it was so I checked Google Maps and Yelp and they all confirmed it was open. Since I live about a mile away I figure I would have a brisk little stroll to the store. It was a a bit cold and windy still because of the rain fall, but I figured I would get a nice respite once I get there and shop around.I arrived at 10:20 am, 20 minutes after all 3 places said it would be open. Both doors are locked and there are no lights on inside. I figure I can walk around a little since theres Luckys nearby and see if theyll open up. I come back at 10:40 am and still locked up. I try to call and theres no answer. I recheck all sites and still says theyre open.So I decide to walk home in the now cold morning. I start to type up an Email to the company, which I got off the site, asking for clarification. Why the hours are wrong, why no one picked up, essentially why theyre not doing business today when everything said they were. My fingers are starting to hurt from the wind, my nose is starting to run, but I finally get the Email sent and put my hands in my pocket.When I finally get home my inbox refreshes and low and behold I get a delivery notice failure from the company! This is definitely a great start to my day so thanks for that guys.
I love out the closet.
OMG, you could literally spend all day here and spend $50! Tons of hidden gems and weird things here. Also, it goes to a good cause! Pretty well kept for a thrift store.
One of my favorite places to shop when I come to San Francisco. If you dont mind spending a little bit of time looking through all their stuff, you can find some really good items. From fun clothing pieces and accessories, to good quality workout wear. Spend some time in there and you will save a lot of money!!
This is THE BEST secondhand clothing store Ive ever had the pleasure of going to. They have amazing womens clothes, shoes, purses & accessories!! Every time I visit Oakland I HAVE to go in. Also...the staff is awesome!
Great customer service
I found a dope Banana Republic jacket for 10 bucks. The employee that checked me out was very chill. Clean place... good finds...good service
I love this place! They pretty much retail out of the equation! I find everything here!
One of my favorite thrift stores! Really nice items and inexpensive. Goes to a good cause, too. Highly recommend Out of the Closet:)
Friendly staff. I remember needing a pair of slacks for a job interview and ended up finding them here last minute for a pretty cheap price. I also picked up a great guide on Pro Tools here for just 75¢
We were looking for furniture, and this is not a great spot for that. They had a total of 4 pieces of furniture. A lot of second-hand clothes at good prices, though --- largely feminine clothing.
One of my favorite easy bay thrift stores. I scored lots of great shoes, sneakers and boots there in January. Love their eclectic offerings and mission.
Theres a large variety of things other than clothes. Decent furniture selection which turns over fast. Tons of books. Much better than Goodwill in terms of pricing as well.
Good prices, decent selection for a smaller thrift store. Money goes to a great cause. Staff is usually pretty nice and helpful
Great, helpful staff who gave great tips. Clean and calm with good prices and $1 dscounts. Clothing was clean and in good condition.
Plenty of parking right next to their store. Inside the store is bright and clean with clothing and other articles well displayed.The people working here are pleasant and helpful .there are three different teirs if sale items25% 50% and 1$ all discounts are indicated by the color of the price tag on an item. Prices are very reasonable and the quality of clothing and other items is quite nice. This is a worthy cause staffed by caring people. Stop in .its not the largest thrift store nor the smallest They have a nice selection of books resonably priced
I live near here and stop by a couple days a week. They change the discounts on the colored tags on Sundays and they get new deliveries of furniture and appliances on Saturdays and Thursdays. Very well organized except for the huge selection of books which could be separate store unto itself.
Clean store, great treasures to find!
Great place to shop 👍
Lots of clothes, an okay amount of home goods, books and furniture, but good stuff for what is there. We found some great antique-style frames and a large vintage poster/print.
Always pleasant. Sometimes the prices are perfect and other times a bit questionable. Mostly in the furniture department.
It is a nice place with friendly workers for a good cause. Hiv testing. And trendy clothes. Even Halloween costumes and books.
Lovely collection, chill employees, cheap prices, great location, parking is hard to find
Great place to donate your old things and get new (to you) things! I have made some sweet finds in this thrift store.
M@n!Im an overseer of the store front, so that means I have the best view of the store,,and must say Im very pleased 😎..
Great used clothing store with friendly staff. Good selection and prices.

Had a wedding to attend and needed a suit last minute. I found one here, quite dapper, about an hour before I had to leave. This place is awesome!
Great neighborhood gem with great resources. I appreciate the health contributions to the community.
The best thrift store in town and the clinic in the back is an even more amazing resource.
