About this business

Located in Lakeview near Wrigley Field, this caters to those who want to relive, or pretend to relive, those 1970s psychedelic head trips. Besides the overpowering selection of go-go boots, dresses, wigs, bell bottoms, jumpsuits, jewelry and bright leisure suits, the shop also carries a wide assortment of shoes, poodle skirts, tube tops, and socks. The kicker has got to be the large stock of acid wash denim.

They couldn't care less about customer service. The fact that the owner wouldn't even speak about an employee issue says it all. In these hard times of covid, save your money for someone with a business that's appreciative.

We’ve always loved Strange Cargo starting back in their Wrigley days. They may have changed locations, but their quality & customer service remain outstanding. They are the go to place for novelty items (socks, pins, stickers, mugs, etc.) and the obvious choice for custom t’s. We brought in some bandanas to have printed for our dog. Nikki and the crew could not have been more friendly, fun and accommodating. Thank you Strange Cargo for being awesome!

Ordered some custom shirts on Wednesday and received the shipping notification within hours. I couldn't believe that they would be right, but here we are on Monday, and they are perfect! Thank you!

I had stumbled upon this ‘diamond in the rough’ when venturing around the north side years and years ago. I didn’t know what to expect when I entered, but I was nothing short of amazed when I started looking around. This store is full of stuff you didn’t know you had to have, until you gazed over it. I will never not go here whenever stumbling about the city! 😻🎃😈
