Why buy kids’ clothing second hand?
Here are our top five reasons:
It wastes less
One thing that often gets overlooked or even mistaken is that the sustainable choice can also often be the more cost-effective choice. And that makes sense, because sustainability is all about better using our resources!
The fashion industry has a significant environmental footprint. By choosing to buy used, you consume fewer of our planet’s resources. And you can multiply your impact by caring for your child’s garments and passing them along when outgrown!
It costs less
Raising kids is expensive, and it’s great to find some savings no matter your budget. The price difference between new and used differs based on a few different factors, like the brand, quality and condition.
It’s practical
Painting day at preschool. Baby’s first solid foods. Five sizes in the first year. Sandboxes. In some scenarios like these, gently used clothing just makes sense. It’s less stressful to know that whatever articles of clothing may be getting literally dragged through the mud, they cost less and have already lived to tell many stories.
It’s community based
There are several large corporations offering second hand clothing, but many second hand shops and sellers are small businesses, like ours! Buying second hand means supporting these local businesses and participating in your community.
It’s special
Every piece has a story and when you shop second hand, your family adds a chapter.
And there’s more–when you shop for gently used children’s clothing, you’re also more likely to encounter vintage pieces, discover new brands or find items from older collections no longer in stores.
