Benefits of Buying Secondhand Clothing
Shift 2 Thrift
Dayton, OH
There are plenty of reasons why you should buy secondhand clothing. Many reasons will benefit you and the environment simultaneously in multiple ways. In short, this is a win-win situation where you will have a one-of-a-kind, unique, vintage item, all while helping reduce unnecessary waste.
Here are a few specific reasons why buying secondhand clothing is awesome:
1. It saves money.
You can save a lot of money by shopping for secondhand clothes because you will never pay anywhere near full price for an item. So, make sure to go and explore the Shift2Thrift secondhand shop and follow the perfect deal on our online shop.
2. Secondhand clothing is unique.
Almost all of the clothes in the Shift2Thrift store are one-of-a-kind items that we sell at a very low price, and thus the chances of there being two of the same item at Shift2Thrift and the surrounding areas is slim to none.
3. Buying used clothing promotes sustainable fashion.
Wearing vintage clothing is ethical and also cool at the same time. It is environmentally friendly and supports sustainability. We try as much as possible to stock items made with Eco-friendly materials/fabrics, such as organic cotton, Tencel, and hemp. Also, at our shop, you can see how many pieces of used furniture we try to resell at a lower price to extend its life period to reduce waste as much as possible. In other words, a sustainable wardrobe/house can be a perfect way to help with the environment and our planet’s sustainability goals.
4. Buying used clothing saves resources.
When buying secondhand clothing, you’re saving resources and doing the environment a solid favor while, at the same time, you are also saving your own resources as those items have a significantly reduced price. So, instead of buying a new shirt or pair of pants that consumes resources to make, buy a used one that doesn’t deplete any additional resources. Thus, wearing secondhand clothing has a significant positive impact on the environment and is an excellent idea for anyone who wants to reduce their environmental impact.
