The specialty teen apparel, footwear and accessories retailer is enabling its customers to both buy and sell pre-owned apparel items.
Pacsun has partnered with online fashion retail platform ThredUp Inc. to roll out “Pre-Loved Pac”. This “360-resale” program allows Pacsun customers to exchange used clothing for Pacsun credit, as well as shop pre-owned directly through the Pacsun website.
Pacsun is leveraging the ThredUp Resale-as-a-Service (RaaS) hosted technology and logistics platform that supports circular fashion retailing to build a white-labelled resale channel. The channel includes a digital shop, cleanout program, and cash-out offerings for participating customers.
ThredUp Clean Out Kits, now available on Pacsun.com, can be filled with women’s and kid’s apparel, shoes and accessories from any brand and are shipped to ThredUp for free using a prepaid shipping label. The customer gets paid for their re-sellable items in the form of a Pacsun gift card.
Additionally, any ThredUp seller can now turn ThredUp credit into Pacsun credit, with a value that is 10 percent higher than the cash payment option. Pre-owned Pacsun brands are now available for purchase on Pacsun.com.
