HOW TO THRIFT LIKE A PRO (*actually useful* thrifting tips)

[@emmaputnam2594]

I remember my mom telling me to lie about where I got my clothes (including school uniforms) as a kid. I’m actually really happy that now I can just casually say “oh, I thrifted it” when someone compliments me on it.

[@sociocomm724]

Not to mention, depending on who your friends are, I mean they could be working minimum wage and all that. So splurging on name brand stuff doesnt have the same "oooo, aaahhh" effect that it used to. Just kinda seems like you're rubbing wealth in their face ya know? Better to be like "nah, I got this name brand thing for like $4...heh heh take that (name brand)"

Thrifting to be trendy is better than supporting fast fashion to be trendy in my opinion. Both are cheap and convenient, but one is a lot more damaging.

[@sbjade9812]

Yess exactly!

[@lauryntp9215]

exactly

[@abigaildelaney7653]

Alyssa You’re making assumptions. Not everyone who thrifts is also contributing to fast fashion. Some people get their clothes mostly or entirely from thrift stores. And honestly, getting mad at people for thrifting at all is dumb. If they get good use out of the clothes and don’t just throw them away, I’m not going to judge someone for shopping at a thrift store.

[@romacabanas1032]

@@abigaildelaney7653 I think the primary problem is that thrift stores (we call them charity shops in england lmao) are now being used as a trendy place to get clothes by people that can afford to buy them elsewhere. as it is not necessarily about the money these people will save but the 'experience' and 'satisfaction' of thrifting, some stores have risen their prices - which means that the economically disadvantaged people in society no longer can afford the more sustainable thrift clothes and instead have to turn to fast fashion brands that have extremely low prices.

[@birdyslens]

adding onto what she said about thrifting being controversial, ‪coming from personal experience, there was a point in my families life where we only went to salvation army on wednesdays bc they were half off. that was our only option for clothing. ‪to be mad at innocent teens for shopping at goodwill for cheap trendy clothes is overboard. when ur poor, u don’t care what ur clothes look like. beggers can’t be choosers. ‪all we cared about was that our clothes were comfy and cheap. all throughout middle school my style (or lack there of) was all over the place. all of my clothes came from salvation army. but i didn’t mind because at least i had SOMETHING‬‬. now that we’re financially stable and can afford nicer clothes, i still go to thrift stores bc i know the layout, i know how to thrift, and i know that i don’t need to worry much about it being half off or not. there is absolutely nothing wrong with thrifting for the trends/aesthetic

[@rzawilski]

I agree with this completely. I thrift because it’s more economical and way better for the environment. Why buy something new when you can give a used piece of clothing a new life? I encourage everyone to shop secondhand, regardless of wealth. To me, it makes no sense to tell anyone, “you have money, you must buy new.” That just seems counterproductive and wasteful.

[@kendalljackson6595]

I always feel bad when i follow the trend, cause theres always somebody who says ur basic like everybody else

[@hamsandwich4243]

Also, especially if you live in the UK and instead of thrifting you shop in charity shops, it doesn’t matter why you’re shopping there, whether it’s because you want to be trendy, you want to save money or it’s your only feasible option, you’re supporting good causes

I just wanted to clarify that you do not need to be in a low financial bracket to shop at thrift stores its just what i experience growing up and what i could afford. Thrift is good for the environment a inexpensive way to try trends and a great activity for yourself or to hop with friends.

[@jasmineyehia2534]

Gabriela Hough agreed

[@TheDublincity]

Speaking as someone who relies on thrift stores for my clothing, PLEASE keep going to thrift stores. More demand creates more supply betweens stores, and we NEED to encourage a culture of sustainable, eco-friendly fashion.

[@Nicole-rc5kb]

And keep donating :)

[@TheDublincity]

@@Nicole-rc5kb yes!! Especially as clothes stop fitting our bodies. I used to be in a terrible habit of throwing clothes away, which is so wasteful and prevents others from enjoying my old pieces. We need to keep our landfills empty and our thrift stores full

[@vaderladyl]

I totally agree. There will always be a steady supply if people keeps donating instead of throwing out clothing.

[@gavanscorner2524]

When people who have more than enough money to shop elsewhere begin to pick up thrifting, stores start to realize this and raise prices substantially. I say if you want to do this as someone who has plenty of money, don't do it too often. More demand doesn't always create more supply ESPECIALLY if they are rarely buying stock themselves and instead getting donations, but more demand always equals higher prices which could make clothing no longer affordable to some people. Just my two cents!

[@lore5751]

I grew up into a family where all my clothes were thrifted or handed down and we always handed down or donated our clothes so I agree

[@lisaxx8230]

@@schuldigesherz2763 Haha, I was allowed to pick my clothes (and ask for permission, if they were expensive/revealing) from the age of 13. Before that age, I wore my mothers old shirts as a tunic, I wore boy's clothes (my mom's friend had a boy and a girl, she sold their clothes to us, I've walked around in shirts that said 'sailor' or 'I love dogs' even though I hated dogs) and I always wore socks in sandals, as to avoid blisters. Usually red socks in purple sandals. Not to mention, as a 9-year old, I wore lilac 'latex-look' boots in winter, because they were cheap and I lóved them and at the time, I had women's-size-feet and that was the only pair that wasn't boring. (Not to mention, my feet are currently a Dutch size 43, which is a men's size, so whichever 'feminine' shoe I fit properly, I have to buy, there are very few options xD

[@mariajosecalix1132]

So, my native country is a "third world country" and my mom started thrifting since I was 14, we couldn't afford to buy expensive clothes at the mall, but there were lots of thrift shops were we could find the actual same clothes, but affordable. I used to feel really ashamed to wear thrifted clothes, even when it was nice clothes or even brand new, when my friends ask where did I get it I got nervous and said "got it from internet". But later I realized lots of girls, even my best friend thrifted. Now a days is "cool to thrift" and its funny because when I find something nice I brag about how good it is and that I got from the thrift shop, almost all my wardrobe is thrifted and I feel proud about it.

I'm glad I can find them again in second hand stores because they aren't anywhere else! *lots of people in the States shop at second hand, charity, and thrift shops because we've actually had to, not just because it's trendy. I remember when Maclamore released that song and everyone loved it until we saw how many rich kids came down from the nice parts of town to go thrift shopping for fun instead of going to the mall. Many malls are now dead. And many people who could afford good, new clothes, don't buy them (and thusly don't donate them to thrift stores) because they'd rather thrift. It's actually made the pickings at thrift stores here slimmer 😖. I hope the wealthy start buying and donating more again.

Sometimes, if you've got a special occasion coming up, it's worth NOT buying a lot of cheap stuff and saving up $100 to buy the dress or coat or pair of shoes you love so much it makes you cry. There's also the rule of "cost per wear." If you spend $100 on a coat you wear 100 times, you've paid $1 per wear and that's well worth it, versus a sweater you bought for $10 that you originally thought was cute and then let it get lost in a pile of "meh" clothes, so that it ended up being $10 per wear.

They're cheaper, good for the planet, and I love the thrill of finding a designer item at a discount!

[@janaekoger-hunt643]

When I was younger, I received the majority of my clothing as hand me downs or from thrift stores. I was always embarrassed that my clothes were older and not as "trendy" as my classmates. When thrifting became trendy it actually kind of validated me. It made me feel like the young version of myself would be so proud and happy to see clothing on other bodies that looked like my own clothes. I thrift now for more ecological rather than economical reasons but personally, I havent noticed a shortage or drop in quality because of the higher demand of second hand items. However, I would totally want to encourage others to be empathetic and understanding of why specifically "charity stores" exist and the population these thrift stores primarily serve. More privileged shoppers should work to serve the people that benefits most from thrift stores. I buy from thrift stores but I also donate useable items to ensure I'm feeding the cycle rather than taking from it.

Not true. I work at a thrift store and I NEVER put the cutest clothes on the mannequins because if I do, then people immediately want to buy the items on the mannequin, which means I have to pick out another outfit and redress the mannequin way more often.

[@somewhat3339]

I also work at a thrift store and usually we just put whatever clothes are in our hand at the time on the mannequin. It’s not necessarily the cutest thing on the rack, it just saves time. Personally, if I have an item I find particularly cute and nice I’ll put it in the middle of the rack. It’s way too much effort to put it on the mannequin. I hope this helped. :).

PRO TIP FOR JEWELLERY: look for pieces where the clasp or lock metal is tarnished but the piece itself isn't (could be a little faded maybe), you'll know it's real gold/gold plated or sterling silver and it won't oxidize/change color on you 😌😌😌

Yes! Also, the fact that the clasp is tarnished and the rest isn't tells you that the clasp has been changed out. Meaning that the item is quite possibly very vintage if not a true antique.

But for real now, I just spend 10 minutes nibbling vs scratching my pearls and fake pearls and came to this conclusion: it's easier to get the feel of it with your teeth because of the sound, I guess? (like, the real thing resounds inside your head because of the roughness), while if you do it with your nails go with the intention of peeling something off them (go strong!) I noticed that the real ones look like they were peeling, but after I run my thumb over it, there were no scratch marks, as oppose to the fake ones, which either peeled or didn't but felt really smooth.

I thrift a lot for silk and cashmere or clothes made of real wool (I wouldn't buy any of these new), so special care is part of the game! The thing is that we over wash our clothes a lot.

As a person who worked in a second hand shop this is such a fun video. 😊 I would definitely recommend returning to the same shops regularly, I'm not in a 'trendy' area at all but I have struck gold with some items. A lot depends on how you style the clothes. Think outside the box in that regard. Also try everything on, because there are some hidden flaws in a lot of second hand clothes. Also if you have the time charity shops always need volunteers, it's fun work, and you can keep an eye on the clothes coming in.

[@kirka8573]

re thrifting as a trendy thing, i work at a pretty big secondhand chain and our prices have definitely gone up bc of the rise of the "thrift aesthetic" ... like a cashmere sweater that used to be 3.99-5.99 is now 12.99-13.99, which leads to customers who need these items bc of economic hardship taking tags off and bringing it up as a "no tag" item, where it'll be marked up even further to punish them for taking the tag off/them getting kicked out of our store, depending on management that day. but yeah we've noticed the demographic shift and changed basically everything about our store's layout/ad strategy to make it appear subtly trendier/more expensive/etc.... so i'm kinda against the trending aesthetic bc i'm so close to the consequences. i grew up shopping at my store out of necessity too and used to get made fun of for wearing out of season/"grandma clothes" all thru elementary/middle/HS but now that i'm in college it's suddenly super fashionable... Etc etc etc. multifaceted issue... ethical consumption... yadayadayada but TLDR yeah thrift stores have actively noticed the change in who shops where and how much more money they have to spend and are raising prices bc of it Also PLEASE don't trash thrift stores lol thank you ashley for that dhskafshdjf ily

Also it’s likely stores are reacting to rise in expenses. Rent for the building is more expensive, pay for workers is more expensive, transport etc,, it depends on where you are and how you’re buying

[@samantha.redacted]

the only reason why it's raising prices is because of corporate bigwigs

[@mandyhackman9740]

@Mark O to consider in your questioning: anecdotally, as someone who has been thrifting for necessity AND making proverbial lemonade out of that situation by styling the finds for almost two decades- it isn't just the actual price that makes me think the popularity is the culprit. In stores I have been in all over the country, spaces are starting to have "basic" prices of $1-8 AND "boutique" prices of $12-15 specifically on pieces that are trendy labels. A quality item that is NOT a trendy label might still be $3, but if it's "vintage levi' mom jeans?" that shit's $15 in most stores now. There are also many more people in thrift stores buying specifically for labels to resell in the stores, rather buying for themselves - if it's enough for me to notice the uptick, presumably a manager would also notice. These two points would tend to imply that prices are not rising overall because of increased costs, but in a targeted way related to popularity. Also to my mind, the fact that the rise in price so far outpaces the rise in expenses (above) seems to support that prices are being raised in response to something other than base expenses. Side note: because of what I just said, I also feel like if you aren't necessarily interested in trendy pieces, but you actually just need some clothing, you still have good options in a thrift store, though it is sort of a bummer that certain higher quality items are getting priced up these days. I can't buy coats in the thrift store overall, but I can still buy a great silk blouse for $3. I can't get the aforementioned mom jeans, but since I like a relaxed fit I can still get name-brand quality jeans for $5- if you walk away from the trend, you're still probably good. (which isn't the same as not being stylish if you know what you're doing ;) . ) So, thoughts. I hope you keep researching and I'll be curious what you find!

[@mariannaark5899]

I worked at a fast fashion store and it was the same!! Like ofc don't throw the clothes you tried on on seven different locations around the shop, and "helping us" by hanging pants inside out is obviously half-assed fake effort (we have to take the extra time to unhang them). Also we usually have a "system" as to where we put the clothes on the rack. Some customers are very neat because they understand that leaving the clothes in the dressing room leads them to get stolen en mass, and abusing button shirts damages them so we have to take them off the sales floor and then other customers don't have the chance to buy them. Others just feel sorry for us when they see us flooded, but it's seriously not their fault we're understaffed. If there were enough for us to keep the place neat, your clothes would be much more expensive! Just handing the items back to us is doing your part in being a decent customer to us, the store and the rest of the shoppers. And if you really want to go above and beyond, pay very good attention to how the clothes were hanged/folded before you take them off to try on.

[@laia6548]

There's nothing wrong with thrifting becoming more popular, but young or middle to higher class people need to be mindful of its purpose. I remember the last times I went thrifting with my mom and it just became a very unpleasant time. You go there because you literally don't have enough money to buy new clothes and there are these groups of teenagers almost shouting and making fun of the ugly clothes and getting like 12 different pieces (which isn't bad in and of itself, but they make a mess and go thrifting just as a sort of fun afternoon out). Also, this may be my personal experience, but I've encountered very rude 30 somethings with very expensive watches, phones and shoes, that basically force you to make them space to look for something in a rack even if you were there before. One girl just pushed my mom away from the pants section and we (my mom and me) didn't even talk about it, but she hasn't come thrifting ever since. I now go on the evenings, just before they close, because it's more peaceful. But it is becoming harder to find presentable looking clothes that look good. TLDR: Thrifting has inevitably become a more hostile way for low income people to get good clothes, and it probably won't go back to how it was before (which is good for the environment), but please make sure to be respectful with staff and other shoppers, don't shout or make fun of clothes in a very loud way (as if thrift stores were a joke) and be mindful of the initial reason we shop at thrift shops (we don't have money to shop at regular shops).

Not only are the prices raised, but since so many people go to the stores because it’s trendy, you can rarely find anything there. If you talk to people who are experienced in thrifting most of them will tell you that they actually drive out to smaller towns because those thrifts shops will have more finds.

Ada It is, but more in terms of recycling and ecoefficiency, less on the „reuse“ side of things. Oftentimes, old clothes are just donated (which isn’t any better than dumping them, most charities have more than they could ever handle) Many people still have a mindset that buying Second-hand is also second class or something. I think it’s an effect of the war, since the current generations of adults have oftentimes been raised during the „economic wonder“ of the sixties and seventies and now have a „Finally we can have nice things“ attitude. But many younger people are starting to rethink that so I think we’ll see more and more Second Hand stores as time progresses. Also, we just don’t have the same Space here that’s available in North America and those thrift stores are huuuge 😂

This is an awesome strategy guide! I live in Portland, OR, and my problem here (Portland has a large population of green, recycling, outdoor-loving hipsters, for anybody who isn’t familiar with the city) is finding things before others do. Thrifting is so huge here, many goodwills and antique shops are picked clean daily 😩 Doesn’t stop me from going around thrift shopping very often! We do have a huge specialty shop called “House of Vintage” but I dislike going there, because they mark up prices SO steeply and the whole place just has that air of ‘better than you’ hipster.

Thats litterally how every single store works

[@becka5472]

xenia anderson yeah of course, however thrift stores are specifically aimed at ppl with less income, and therefore less access to “literally every store” in the same way others do. so if someone with a comfortable amount of money comes in, buys a bunch of stuff (thus taking away someone with less money’s ability to buy that stuff for cheap) and resells it for a profit u could very easily agree they are taking away supply from others. plus thrift stores can’t replenish goods the same way others stores can, cause it’s all donations. i used to work at an op shop and it’s even worse then for ppl who are plus size maybe, as they already have less variety and have to compete with those who want to modify larger clothing to make it smaller. ur right it is how things work but like doesn’t mean it doesn’t suck for some ppl

[@archishadhar2093]

[@-Anjel]

For leather or suede, savon de marseille. It's a oil based soap so it doesn't dry the leather out. Dissolve quite a lot of it in warm water and then soak the leather item in it and brush the dirty areas. Rinse the item out, but make sure not to rinse all of the soap out, you want some of the oils to remain in the leather. Then let the item dry in a cool environment. The drying period can take a couple days. When the item is still a bit damp, treat it with leather conditioner and then let dry completely. I did this with my leather jacket and got the dirt that had accumulated on it for nearly a decade off and it got snug like the day it had been when I bought it. Just know it is risky, if too much of the oils are washed off or the leather dries too fast, it will become brittle.

[@Wyldefaeboy]

Anjel - Hey! Don’t mean to be imposing here- but you actually might be hurting your leather, I’ve known many people who have permenantly stained their leather by using too much water. I’ve been working with leather for a really long time, since I ride horses, and am constantly cleaning tack. What I’ve found works best is dipping a sponge in warm water, and applying pure glycerin soap(because it leaves no residue) to the sponge, then you should ALWAYS wring your sponge out most of the way, just leaving enough water to allow suds to form on your leather. From there, you should scrub lightly in small circles, and then take a wrung out cloth, and wipe away the soap bubbles, which clears away all the built up dirt with it. Then, let the leather dry overnight/for at least 6 hours. What works for me is oiling/conditioning with pure neatsfoot oil (because it doesn’t go rancid on leather) take a dry cloth and apply a small amount to the towel, then spread the oil onto the leather in small circles, making sure not to leave any visible sheen on the leather. Then you can let the leather sit for another day as it soaks in, and repeat the oiling process before wearing again. I hope this helps/isn’t annoying.

[@summerrose4184]

If your leather does become too dry and brittle, I highly recommend a leather conditioner called Leder Basalm by Effax. It is the conditioner of choice among equestrians (who have a ton of leather items like saddles) and I used it when I accidentally put my leather belt through the washing machine and it came out feeling like cardboard. Applied liberally and allowed a couple days to set in and a year later it still feels like brand new.

[@Wyldefaeboy]

Summer Rose leder balsam is amazing! I agree 100%

[@Zazzysylvester]

Jasmine Pearce if you condition the leather with oil you can end up splitting open the threads holding it together since it rots. Just a tip from working in a professional stable.

[@-Anjel]

​@@Wyldefaeboy It was a jacket that I got in middle school, getting it professionally cleaned would have cost more than the jacket itself. And as I said, I have had the jacket for a decade, it was dirty, not just with surface grime. The instructions I got from a motorcyclist who has to clean their gear off motor oil and sweat. Had the dirt only been superficial, I would have not cleaned it that way, but the jacket needed to be thoroughly washed, if I wanted to keep using it. The leather used in horse riding gear is a lot more stiffer, thicker and durable than what is used in everyday items. So what might work for that type of leather might be too extreme for more supple leather according to my friends who ride horses. My jacket didn't stain, neither has my friends gear, they really emphasised on the long and slow drying period. I'm not an expert, I asked around in my circle and read about leather to find a cheap way to clean the jacket. Every method I was recommended came with risks, and this was the one I ended up using. I really wouldn't have risked it, had not the jacket been disgusting (it had gone through a lot, I used it all through my teenage years) and professional cleaning so expensive.

As someone who works as a volunteer at a thrift store, the more you buy, the more we can put stuff out. It is not an issue of running out of clothing, we always have a ton of stuff to put out, it is good for demand and supply. And also most thrift stores have an Emergency Needs thing, so if you are in need of food, supplies etc, talk to a volunteer/manager about it, please don't be shy.

[@rachelsydd]

as someone who has had to buy and wear second-hand clothing since i was a child and continues to need to do so, the gentrification of thrift stores can be frustrating. prices have significantly gone up, especially in larger chain stores that more people rely on. sometimes, it is more economical now for me to buy clothing from walmart now than it is second hand, and for low income people the cost has to take priority over ethics the majority of the time, and that sucks. it is sometimes more inexpensive to buy something new from a cheap fast fashion store than it is to buy it second hand. while i completely agree that it is of course better to purchase these things second hand, many people cannot afford that luxury. there is so much privilege in the ability to spend extra money on sustainable sources of any items, including clothing. it is also interesting to note that trends do come and go. while i used to be teased for second hand clothing, now that is cool. and with that trend, it may eventually go out of style too, but the lasting impacts on the price of second hand clothing may not fade as quickly and frankly i believe is forcing more and more low income people to have to shop at places like walmart which is antithetical to the "sustainability" of promoting thrift options. obviously, it is complicated.

[@Sofia-re3hj]

[@kay4732]

You bring up many good points. I also need to shop at thrift stores or Walmart. I find if I shop at thrift stores that run tag sales, I can beat Walmart prices for much higher quality items. I almost never pay full price at a thrift store though.

[@skrittle555]

yes! sometimes people forget that the idea of shopping more sustainably in general is privileged. not everyone can afford to buy the organic, eco-friendly, or sustainable options because they're priced higher, and that's a complicated issue. most of these products are priced higher so that the people who worked on it actually make a living wage, or because it simply is more expensive right now to produce some things with ethics and climate change in mind. admittedly, i think a lot of it has to do with the fact that our federal minimum wage hasn't changed in ten years while price inflation increases annually. although, as a nation and a society, we should also be prioritizing sustainability and not just the 1%'s bottom line.

I see the same development. On the other hand the demand for more thrifted clothes encourages people to open new thrifting oportunities... At least where I live there are a lot of second hand shops nowadays that haven't been there 10 years ago. It's hard to tell what causes what, but buying second hand is always more sustainable than Walmart. The prizes for cool vintage items may have gotten up with the rise of bloggers promoting it but normal clothing like t-shirts and pullovers tend to be in the same prize range as before. So I will continue shopping at thriftshops even if it only saves me a dollar :)

I Don't think it's neccesarily that it has become trendy. A lot of places have dealt with raising house/rent/land/area prices.
