Best of the New: Shopping

Boomerangs

Vintage, consignment, and thrift stores are blossoming in the Boston area.

This West Roxbury outpost of the popular Jamaica Plain resale store has a selection and pricing structure similar to those of the original, but feels quieter and less crowded — meaning it's easier to get your hands on a winning find — perhaps some serviceable Gap trousers or even a Brooks Brothers suit. Sales benefit the AIDS Action Committee of Massachusetts.
