Tyra Sledge is the dynamic founder and creative force behind 6th Street Vintage, a sustainable fashion brand that has redefined vintage styling since its inception in 2012. What began as a personal journey of rebuilding after moving back to Cleveland with only a suitcase has grown into a nationally recognized brand. "Thrifting became my way of reclaiming what was lost," Tyra explains. Within a year, her passion turned into a collection of over 2,000 unique pieces, sparking requests from friends and family to borrow or buy.

This demand became the foundation for 6th Street Vintage, a brand that blends timeless vintage aesthetics with sustainable practices. In 2016, Tyra taught herself to sew, further evolving her business by upcycling clothing into stylish, environmentally conscious designs. From personal styling and wardrobe rentals to garment alterations and private studio shopping experiences, Tyra’s brand offers an array of services that celebrate individuality and sustainability. Signature events like the seasonal Fill-Your-Bag experience invite customers to explore vintage treasures at an accessible price.
