Meet Connor Hayes Gressitt, the mastermind behind Distressed Fest and the curated vintage archive @legarbaage. In this episode, we sit down with Connor to talk about the grind of the vintage clothing business and look at 10 incredibly rare true vintage pieces from his personal collection that he will NEVER sell.
Connor’s journey in the vintage scene is the definition of hustle. He opens up about his early days literally dumpster diving behind vintage shops to find discarded gems, and how those gritty beginnings led him to build Distressed Fest, a two-city vintage festival focused exclusively on perfectly thrashed, true distressed vintage garments.
After sharing his story, Connor takes us into the vault. He breaks down 10 of his all-time favorite vintage tees and garments that are strictly not for sale. From nostalgic, impossible-to-find grails tied to his hometown of San Diego to 1-of-1 distressed pieces he knows he could never replace, this is a masterclass in vintage curation and history.
