Been places. Big plans ahead.

A good cut doesn’t need a fresh start. A leather jacket is allowed to have character. And your next favourite piece doesn’t have to look like everyone else’s. Welcome to Checkpoint & Cinema on Mehringdamm.

One find. Your next scene.

Secondhand means this piece had a life before you. We pick out clothing and accessories that we’re happy to pass on – from everyday classics to eye-catching one-offs. Plus a selection of brand-new items. We mark the difference directly on each item.

What you should know about your piece

Our secondhand items are checked and cleaned by us. Under “About this piece” you’ll find the available details on material, size, fit and known signs of wear. A missing button, a split seam or visible wear belong in the description.

The photos show the actual item. Colours may look slightly different depending on the light and your screen. If we know of anything particular about a photo, we’ll mention it.

Sizes are numbers. Fit is personal.

Label sizes can vary depending on the brand and age of a piece. If we’ve noticed that something fits differently, we’ll mention that as well. Such an assessment does not replace the original size information.

Missing a measurement or want a closer look at the collar, lining or fastening? Write to us with the item name or item number. You can also try on our available pieces in our shop on Mehringdamm.

Berlin names, real garments.

“Night Bus”, “Landwehrkanal” or “Late Show”: our nicknames connect our finds with our Kiez and our love of cinema. The brand and product type always remain recognisable. The names tell you how we see the piece; they are not a statement about where it was made or about its previous owners.

Found it? Here’s what happens next.

Many of our secondhand pieces exist only once and in a single size. You can see what’s available on each item. For collection, select “Pick up” at checkout. As soon as your order is ready, we’ll let you know.

You’ll find all the information on costs and delivery times under Payment and shipping. Statutory consumer rights apply to secondhand items. We explain the procedure and the deadlines under Right of withdrawal.

Checkpoint & Cinema. Secondhand. First choice. Straight from Kreuzberg.
