Rehab Vintage

In the heart of downtown Kent, in the new Acorn Alley, sits a little vintage shop by the name of Rehab Vintage. This store contains many unique, vintage and even some one-of-a-kind pieces. Their pieces are just as unique as their monthly music and art festivals! This is not your average second-hand clothing shop!
