Two Farrell brothers who started selling vintage clothing out of their dorm room now own a store in Sharon. Jaiman and Trian Holden were football stars at Farrell High School and are in their sophomore year of college at Lock Haven University. They own The Thrift Room at 155 E.
State St. “Typically what we do is we started getting hand-picked pieces from around the world,” Trian said. “People here took a liking to them, so we started to sell them out of our dorm room and it just took off from there.
” They acquired the store in Sharon and have been there for less than a year. “I’m a very social person,” Jaiman said. “I would show people stuff and they would post it on social media and people would come knocking on my door.
” Twins Jaiman and Trian have customers that come from all around, including Cincinnati, Columbus, Boardman and Niles, Ohio. “A lot of people know me around here and they come and shop,” Jaiman said. You have to have a good eye to pick out vintage clothing that people want.
“People have things and they may have something we want and we would trade,” Jaiman said. “You have to search really hard.” Some of the pieces in the vintage clothing shop include collections of Nascar jackets, Looney Tunes T-shirts, Army fatigues, Harley-Davidson T-shirts, several sports jerseys, concert T-shirts, tie-dyed shirts, vintage jeans, Nike and other brand name shoes, and more.
