Explore these hidden treasures and discover what awaits—pieces that blend the Southwest's timeless past with modernity! 

NöMAD 

Growing up, I was an only child of a single mom, and thrifting was a necessity rather than a hobby. As I got older, hunting for deals became a sport, and when my children needed something, finding it at the thrift store became a point of pride. When I sought a storefront in Durango, I aimed to create a destination for wanderers, gypsies, and restless souls. NoMAD, known for its mix of western, vintage, and funky items, offers a welcoming atmosphere and eclectic, one-of-a-kind finds. Conveniently located on Highway 3, NoMAD was founded with locals in mind.

Second Time Around 

Second Time Around is a welcoming consignment store offering high-quality items at some of the best prices around. Unlike a typical thrift store, Second Time Around provides a cozy environment where every item has a purpose and a story. Melissa, the owner, carefully curates each piece to ensure it finds a new home where it can be appreciated. Customers can feel good knowing their pre-loved clothes and items are being given a second life. At Second Time Around, it’s not just about resale; it’s about finding new value and purpose in every item, all within a homely atmosphere.

Rose Duds 

Growing up in a family of jewelers, I developed a deep love for adornments. At 14, I began working at our family store, From The Heart, in Durango, Colorado, where we offered pre-loved items at discounted prices. Recognizing their value, I opened Rose Duds at 18 while attending Fort Lewis College. Named after my middle name and a 1970s term for cute clothes, Rose Duds has thrived since 2013. Our shop offers unique items starting at $5, including high-end luxury pieces. Visit us at 48 CR 250 Ste. 3 for distinctive finds, and explore our family's jewelry repair shop, Old Gold.
