Who We Are: The Story Behind Cream Vintage
Welcome to Cream Vintage! Our journey began in 2019, established by visionary entrepreneurs Hans and Geert. Their partnership, forged over many late-night conversations in various Dutch bars, blossomed from a shared vision.
Hans, with his deep passion for vintage collectibles, combined forces with Geert, who brought extensive retail experience. This unique blend led to the birth of Cream Vintage – not just another vintage shop, but a truly welcoming space. Our aim is for everyone to feel at home while exploring a hand-picked collection of the finest vintage products.
At our core, Cream Vintage is run by a team of passionate individuals for whom this isn’t merely a job, but a genuine way of life. This ethos perfectly aligns with Hans and Geert’s sustainable vision: to expand our business by fostering a community and empowering individuals who share our true passion to own and grow their own Cream Vintage locations.
We are incredibly proud to call these dedicated people our business partners and the stars of our journey. We invite you to read on and meet them!
Oh, and don’t forget to add some Cream to your life – discover your next sustainable fashion treasure today!
Introducing Cream
Where Stories and style collide!
Cream was born out of our deep love for vintage fashion from the ’80s and ’90s,
featuring timeless treasures like old band shirts, streetwear, Levi’s jeans, and
accessories.
Each piece has a tale. Wearing vintage is carrying a fragment of that story with
you. Perhaps it was someone’s favorite piece or worn on a special occasion. The
history and mystery behind it make it fascinating.
What sets Cream apart is the exclusivity of each vintage piece. Handpicked with
love! You won’t easily bump into someone else rocking the same item.
But that’s not all – our vintage pieces aren’t just stylish; they’re eco-friendly too!
Crafted for durability, each item stands the test of time, making a statement for
stylish and sustainable fashion.

Working at Cream is amazing because I
can truly be myself. I can dress as I like,
express myself freely, help people find the
best outfits, or simply have a good chat.
Here, I’ve given space to grow and learn
new things
