Hidden Barn In Interlochen Holds Vintage Shoe Treasures
This little spot in Interlochen is a treasure for anyone who loves fashion with history.
What if I told you that you can find vintage, designer shoes in a barn in the woods? Way out, in the middle of nowhere, hidden behind tall evergreen trees, sits a barn packed with thousands of shoes you might not find anywhere else.
How rare are these shoes? Some of them go back nearly 100 years, according to A Vintage Sole's Facebook page.
A Vintage Sole is the home to thousands of genuine, unworn, vintage shoes from the 1930s to the mid-70s. All in mint condition and in their original boxes.
This hidden gem can be found in a small town of less than 700 people, Interlochen, Michigan. Interlochen is in Grand Traverse County in the pinky of the Mitten.
When I say this place is in the middle of nowhere, I mean in the middle of nowhere. I have to say, its location is part of its charm.
