CLOSETED ARCHIVE was an idea born and raised in Saskatoon, by founder Allen Alemania. For as long as he could remember, clothing had been more than just fabric—it was a reflection of identity, a vessel for memories, and a way to express the moments that shaped a person.

Growing up, his Tita always told him, "Wear the clothes. Don't let the clothes wear you." At the time, it felt like a simple piece of fashion advice, but as he grew older, he realized it was so much more. It was about confidence, agency, and the idea that clothing should serve a person—not define them.

CLOSETED ARCHIVE was born in 2025, in a moment of realization. Standing before an overfilled wardrobe, Allen found himself unable to let go. Every piece carried a story, a feeling, a fragment of time he was not ready to forget. Selling or donating them felt impersonal, but sharing their history—inviting someone new to continue their journey—felt right.

Together with his family, he built CLOSETED ARCHIVE on values of unity, love, and unapologetic self-expression. Here, clothing wasn’t just secondhand—it was an archive of moments, waiting to be rewritten.

Closeted memories, archived in style—where every story deserved to be worn.
