Second-hand clothes

There is a thriving second hand clothes market in Nicaragua, nowhere more so than Esteli. There are rows of shops just selling second-hand clothing and shoes, mostly shipped in from the US. Just as in the UK, some people are a bit too proud to buy second hand, but for those like us, with an eye for a bargain, it's a fun shopping experience with more interesting, quality clothes on offer than in the other shops (think branded shirts and spangly, clingy lycra tops).One of the biggest and most popular shops with a great range of stuff.

Here we are, sporting our newly purchased, second-hand shirts.

Unsophisticated shops need unsophisticated changing rooms.
