About Us

 Welcome to Night River Vintage

At Night River Vintage, we believe in the sustainable future of vintage. There are vintage pieces out there for everyone. Though the pieces may have their own history, so do we all. Our goal is to unite them with their rightful owners so they can be worn and loved through the journey of life together. If the shirt on your back could talk, we hope it would say, “Thank you for taking me with you on this ride.”

Our Story

It all began with tie dye. In 2020, our co-founder, Cross Pratapas, decided to open an on-campus tie dye business while attending Nova Southeastern University. At the time, he was fascinated with the 1960s counter culture’s music, style, and way of life, so he wanted to try his hand at spreading some peace and love. In need of white tees, he started to go to thrift stores to source them as a more environmentally conscious option than buying new. However, what he stumbled upon was the wonderful world of vintage and a familiar name, Ralph Lauren. He realized that the Levi’s, pearl snaps, and cowboy boots he saw on the likes of Bob Dylan and the Band were right there at the thrift, and he also got to experience the detail and craftsmanship of Ralph’s pieces firsthand. Upon learning about RRL and acquiring more knowledge of what entails true vintage, Cross and Chris, Cross’s dad, started to travel to see the RRL and other great vintage shops around the country. They both knew it was time to change course. Night River Vintage was officially founded in 2024, though from where we stand now the journey is always just beginning. As Robert Plant said, “Though the course may change sometimes, rivers always reach the sea.”
