Wearing what you already have in your closet is one of the best things you can do for our planet. The next best thing?

Buying secondhand clothes.

Whether looking for your next thrift flip or a boutique vintage piece you’ll treasure forever, thrifting saves money AND reroutes used clothing from landfills—to the tune of 81 pounds per person per year.

Not only that, but for every item you buy used (or rent) instead of new, you displace 17.4lbs of CO2 emissions.

With thrift stores popping up like tags in a Macklemore song, we’ve rounded up the best second hand online stores that are as conscious as they are carefully curated with styles ready to refresh your wardrobe.

We independently research all featured brands and we ask them to confirm their claims. In many cases we personally review recommended products. This post contains affiliate links which means we may earn a commission if you buy something. Learn more here.

ThredUP

Price Range: $–$$$

thredUP is one of the biggest online consignment stores for women’s and kids’ clothing, with more than 50 million sellers and millions of items across 35,000 brands—“from Gap to Gucci”.

They’re not only one of our personal faves in terms of selection, but for affordability. We just recently scored a vintage black denim jacket that we plan on upcycling by adding some fabric appliqué designs to the back for only $6!

thredUP also makes it super easy to clean out your closet and we use their resale service for an annual closet cleanout. You can either order a Clean Out Kit for a small fee or (to promote recycling) use your own box as we do to send in your unwanted clothes for free. Just be sure they meet their resale criteria and fall on their accepted brands list.

Upon receipt, they professionally photograph the items on mannequins. Once sold, the money can be kept, used as store credit, or used at other sustainable partner retailers.

Anything not accepted will either be returned to you for a fee or be responsibly recycled.

If you don’t care about turning a profit, you can also order a Donation Kit. The same process applies, but instead of giving you a percentage of the sale earnings, they donate $5 to any charity of your choice.

Patagonia Worn Wear

Price Range: $–$$$

A thrift store for adventurers, Worn Wear is Patagonia’s second hand platform specializing in gently used and freshly repaired (if needed) Patagonia clothing for men, women, and kids, as well as used outdoor gear at slashed prices.

That iconic and oh-so-versatile Patagonia Nano Puff® jacket you’ve been eyeing in REI can finally be added to yours without breaking the bank.

As lovers of Patagonia AND pre-loved, we’ve long been purveyors of the Worn Wear platform, and check it at least once a month to see if any of our wishlist styles have hit their second hand shelves. For pieces we really want, we’ll sign up for an email notification if they arrive in stock.

With their Ironclad Guarantee—through which they will repair any piece of Patagonia indefinitely, no matter how old or if you’re the original buyer—you can rest easy knowing if you damage your Worn Wear purchases beyond repair, they’ll recycle and replace it for you.

If you just want to trade up and get rid of things you don’t wear, you can send it to Worn Wear in exchange for store credit to use on new or used items.

Swap

Price Range: $–$$

Swap calls itself the place for “premium & designer finds, $15 or less”, which is pretty standout among online thrift shops.

While that price doesn’t apply to everything in Swap’s range of secondhand women’s, men’s, plus-size, kids’, and babies’ clothing and shoes, overall affordability does.

It’s not difficult to spot elegant Simply Vera sweaters and Steve Madden shoes that cost less than a soy latte.

With more than 2 million unique items and thousands of new ones added daily—including those that don’t fall into the high fashion category prioritized by other second hand designer stores—there’s something for everyone.

Poshmark

Price Range: $–$$$

If you’re looking for the best online thrift store to sell clothes, Poshmark peer-to-peer thrifting service hits the mark.

Their app makes selling and buying used clothes online as simple as raiding your older sister’s closet. Just snap a picture, post, and profit!

With 200 million items across more than 5,000 brands—Prada to Forever21—they cater to women, men, kids, pets, and home decor that’s easy to sort through. Looking for a rare, retro-printed Synchilla Snap-T that Patagonia’s Worn Wear didn’t have?

Just type that into the search and have your mind boggled with the number of options. Or go into discovery mode and browse by your size. For years, we were on the hunt for an affordable vintage leather fringe Western jacket and wouldn’t you know, we finally found one on Poshmark for only $30.

Some Poshers (as sellers are called) put optimistic prices on their items, so the platform encourages haggling with their “offer/counter-offer” feature.

Depop

Image by Depop (online-thrift-stores) (2)

Price Range: $–$$$

If Zoomers were an online thrift store, they would be Depop, whose website and app function as a weird but wonderful cross between a social media platform and a global thrift online marketplace. It functions like any other online thrifting app, but looks like an Instagram feed, that’s as much about selling and buying as it is about broadcasting what you’ve bought and sold.

Like its platform, the overall aesthetic and clothing that finds itself there is definitely on the edgier side. Some of their top searches include festival fare, Y2K tops, and goth gear.

Depop may not be for everyone, but for those who want to go bold and really express themselves—with, say, a rocking red Windsor tie back top that’s perfect for spring—they’re one of the best unique clothing thrift stores.

Luxury Garage Sale

They offer complimentary stylists and ensure that each piece is inspected and verified by in-house experts as authentic.

For sellers, they use a consignment model and offer pre-paid shipping labels and pickup service in some cities.

Ebay

Price Range: $–$$$

We’ve all heard of eBay; it’s been around since 1995, after all, and undeniably served as the biggest influence in encouraging the online second hand economy. It’s the site that made the rest of this list possible and remains one of the most popular thrift stores online.

Nowhere will you find a wider selection of clothing and accessories, but you can do much more than just thrift clothes with eBay. When we say they have everything, we mean everything—from live hatching animal eggs to furniture and unique sustainable home decor.

Bummed you didn’t get your hands on a Richard Simmons Chia Pet in the 90s?

eBay gives you a second chance to score the wacky and weird, with policies protecting buyers from fraudulent or dishonest sellers.

While their women’s collection is extensive, items like a paisley print Dior necktie and Burberry wool suit jackets, they prove they’re an equally good source for vintage men’s clothing, kids’ clothing, bags, eco-friendly watches, jewelry, and shoes.

Pieces include the location of the item, so you can shop locally and minimize shipping emissions.

Retro & Me

Price Range: $$–$$$

With features by HuffPost and many TV shows, Retro and Me is one of the most highly regarded places to buy used clothes online. Just ask the 50,000+ happy Etsy customers.

Our favorite finds from their stock include a leopard print faux fur jacket, Saint Laurent balloon sleeved peasant blouse, and an antique Edwardian lace dress.

Aside from condition, fabric, and rough time frame of origin, they also provide comprehensive measurements to ensure you get the perfect fit.

French 75 Vintage

Price Range: $–$$$

Miami-based French 75 Vintage specializes in unisex sweaters, vintage tees, and jackets from the 70s, 80s, 90s, and 00s (though we still grudgingly think of 00s clothing as vintage!).

We absolutely adore their vintage grandpa sweater collection. The section bleeds geometric patterns, bright colors, and embroidered cats that are fit for the stars of those cheesy 90s sitcoms.

Adding a modern twist to vintage getup, they also provide a selection of cropped tees and blouses for buyers to browse. Rather than just cutting the clothes and calling it a day, they hand-sew the hem.
