Our Mission
To elevate the secondhand shopping experience and change how consumers shop for clothes.
About Us
Tackling fashion industry waste.
Thread Local 360 transforms shopping by addressing fashion industry waste and promoting sustainability — connecting environmentally conscious shoppers with high-quality secondhand clothing.
Our Motivation
Three words: pollution, waste, and hope. Picture pollution and most people picture garbage dumps, littered beaches, smokestacks — not the clothes on their own backs. The fashion industry contributes to all of it, in a major way. Our hope is to change that.
Our Vision
A fierce tribe of people connected by love and respect for the planet. Culture shifting. People thinking twice before buying new, because they know what it cost to get that item onto the display — and keeping up to 90% more of their own money in the process.
We see clothing becoming an asset: something with value beyond its MSRP, something worth taking care of — not just because it can be exchanged, which is genuinely great, but because that shirt and that pair of pants cost far more to the environment, and to the people living near where they were produced, than they cost you to buy.
Savings figures reference the typical American retail clothing spend, per the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
There's a story behind all this.
It starts with a closet full of outgrown baby clothes and a bit of unwelcome arithmetic.
