Apocalypse exists to provide an eco-friendly shopping experience and a space where our community can explore identity through style.

We operate as a source of cash or store credit for our community members – that’s YOU! Bring in garments you no longer wear and trade them in for cash or new-to-you threads without the environmental cost.

Apocalypse is locally owned, family owned, and majority woman owned and operated. Our team is made up of 20+ experienced individuals who share our values of curiosity, inclusivity, and responsibility.

We welcome and champion the LGBTQIA2S+ community and strive to create a brave space where people from all identities and backgrounds can explore their creative expression. Apocalypse believes in de-gendering the fashion industry and moving away from a rigid binary world view. The store is organized into masculine and feminine styles and we invite you to shop whichever section resonates the most with your current personal style & expression!

Supporting the health of our beloved planet is the driving pillar of our three pronged mission. The climate crisis has been exacerbated by the fashion industry, as the second most polluting industry in the world. While the responsibility for building more sustainable systems falls largely to government officials and corporate retailers, consumers have the power to shape the future by harnessing our purchasing power. Conversation and education are critical to promoting and enacting conscious consumerism, and we’re here for it!

While the modern meaning of ‘apocalypse’ has been interpreted as a destructive world event, at Apocalypse we see it differently. The word is derived from the Greek word apokálypsis meaning “a cataclysmic revelation, especially concerning an event in which the forces of good permanently triumph over the forces of evil.” To us, Apocalypse is the embodiment of our efforts as grassroots individuals to be a force of good in the world.
