About

timeless, not temporary

We curate and design products for more than just a moment, evoking nostalgia to celebrate your present and enrich your future.

becoming na nin 

Na Nin is an ode to the power of that connection—a revelation in belonging, a recognition of joy, and a celebration of kindness. It started with a sentence: “I am happy because I am with you.”During our founder’s time in Korea, Kate befriended a woman who began teaching her the spoken language. “I am happy because I am with you” was the first of many translations. When spoken in Korean, “I am” is heard as “na nin.”

Launching as a vintage line in 2009, Na Nin has since expanded to include an in-house clothing and accessories line, hand-blended fragrances, and a community of independent designers.

what we wear tells a story

When pieces are curated for more than just their function, they have the power to enrich our experiences, celebrate our identities, and shape our personal histories. Na Nin hopes to transform wardrobe-building, turning transactions into self-discovery and connecting people with items that will inspire memories for a lifetime.

Our shared values

If the things we wear have the power to shape our personal histories, so do the places we acquire them. Na Nin works to shape these stories for the better, guided by an unwavering commitment to growth, integrity, and kindness. Living and working in step with our values means consistently evolving. We’re grateful for any opportunity to improve, adapt, and better serve our community.  Na Nin’s local, national, and global support efforts include raising and reinvesting profits for organizations like World Pediatric, Safe Harbor, Comfort Zone, Girls for Change, Richmond Community Fridges, BLM, and UNICEF.
