When you feel like a little spring cleaning (even if it’s not spring), we often start with decluttering that overgrown closet. It’s likely that you have clothes in there that have still never been worn, piled up on the shelf (or the floor). Purchasing clothes has changed a lot over the years and it’s not always necessary, or convenient, to go to the department store.

Luckily, because you can shop online clothing stores from the comfort of your own home, you can also sell your clothes online as well. Instead of tossing those clothes into the clothing donation boxes, or the other thrift stores, try giving them another home by using the best online consignment shops. Not only does it create a sustainable wardrobe, but you can also make some of the cash back you spent on the clothes you never really wore in the first place.

Here are some of the best men’s consignment online shops with tips on how to successfully sell your like-new and gently used clothes. Keep in mind that most of these sites will not accept clothing that is worn, damaged, or majorly wrinkled.

Best for outerwear: Poshmark

Chances are you know someone that either buys or sells on Posh. Sellers here take photos to upload and then determine the price of their own items while including a short description. Think of it as a little online boutique of your unwanted items. Buyers can make an offer and you can negotiate. Once you get into the swing of things, it can become as addicting as a video game. Soon enough, you’ll rack up that account balance. The site takes a 20% commission and sends you an automatic shipping label for every sale. Brand names like Lululemon and Patagonia do well here.

Best for vintage clothes: Depop

Depop is known as the creative community’s marketplace. It has a more indie, Brooklyn-hipster vibe to the items listed. Similar to Poshmark, it’s super easy to use and runs on an app only (not a website). Depop is great for your grandfather’s no-name old Hawaiian shirts hanging in the back of your closet that you’ve been saving for a costume party. Anything marketed as “vintage” here does well, whereas on Poshmark it might not. And the platform only takes a 10% commission.

Sell on Depop

Best for streetwear: Grailed

Although not as widely known, Grailed is one of the best online-selling platforms for menswear. The interface is extremely user-friendly and aesthetically pleasing, and more importantly, sales only entail a 6% commission, not including PayPal fees. The standards, however, are a bit high as the Grailed community is fashion-educated and the marketplace is curated. Streetwear brands like Supreme, Off-White, and Vetements do well here.

Sell on Grailed

Best for novelty clothes: eBay

As the OG buy-and-sell-from-home platform, eBay is still among the best places to sell your items online. And this goes beyond just the closet. eBay takes a percentage of all sales, ranging from 1.5% to 12% depending on the value and shipping costs per item. Because you can buy and sell just about anything on eBay, it’s not as streamlined as the more closet-focused apps. Novelty items (like this Nutella hoodie) do well on eBay.

Best for luxury items: Vestiaire Collective

Your Gucci loafers and Prada briefcases will find a second home at this online consignment platform specializing in luxury items. Selling your pieces is a breeze on Vestiaire. Simply fill out a form with your item’s info, including season, size, and designer, and a brand representative, will let you know if your garments are fit for the marketplace. If approved, you’ll receive a shipping label to send your items to the platform’s Paris headquarters for authentication. Vestiaire takes up to a 35% commission.

Sell on Vestiaire

Best for entire outfits: Well Suited

If you want on-trend, curated outfits and a place to complete the look with shoes, watches, suitcases, and scarves, Well Suited is the place to be to sell those items taking up space in your closet. This is a great place for men who used to work in the office and want to trade out their suits and office clothes. It’s an easy website to maneuver and you can easily check your balance once clothes are sold.

Other popular places to sell clothes online

The RealReal

The luxury consignment store is one of my favorites for selling off designer clothing pieces, from Tom Ford sunnies to an A.P.C. sweater. You can request a mailer via the site or set up an in-person appointment at the store or your home with a specialist. Sellers get to keep up to 85% of the sale price and items typically sell pretty fast!

LePrix

LePrix works with some of the best store boutique partners around the world that are expert purveyors of authentic and pre-owned luxury. LePrix offers a few ways to sell via the platform; on your own, through consignment, or via trades with other sellers. Although the site specializes in high-end products, you can definitely sell more accessible priced items via the platform as well.

ASOS Marketplace

Unlike a lot of its counterparts, this online consignment option doesn’t focus on the brand, but the aesthetic of the pieces. It’s great for selling those retro concert tees, distressed denim clothes, and repurposed vintage pieces just hanging around. You set the price but ASOS Marketplace does take a 10% commission on the sale price of each item.

Buffalo Exchange

The popular thrift store with locations all across the U.S. now offers mail-in options for that summer closet cleanout. It’s a super effortless process; just request a free bag online. Within a few weeks of receiving your bag, Buffalo Exchange will send you 25% of our selling price in cash via PayPal or 50% in-store trade. For any items the company is unable to take, you can have them returned for the cost of shipping or donate them to deserving local nonprofits through programs that give back.

Sell on Buffalo Exchange

Crossroads Trading Co.

Crossroads has been leading the resale fashion industry for over 27 years. Catering to fashionable and eco-conscious customers, the store offers a “mail-in” option that you can request via the website. The company looks for gently used seasonal clothing for cash or trade; that’s right, not consignment, so you get paid 30% of the sale price upfront!

Wicked Director Jon Chu wears custom made from exclusive members only brand
The most exclusive luxury menswear makes an appearance at the Oscars
Jon Chu in custom

The 97th Academy Awards was a show stopped by Adrian Brody's acceptance speech that beat the record for the longest ever, and Kieran Culkin reminding his wife that she agreed to have four children with him if he ever won an Oscar. While Brody beat out the likes of Timothee Chalamet, Sebastian Stan, Ralph Fiennes, and Coleman Domingo and Culkin beat out Edward Norton, Guy Pierce, and Jeremy Strong, we had our eyes keenly planted on Wicked Director Jon Chu and his custom dinner jacket made by one of the most exclusive luxury menswear brands in all of Hollywood: NB44.
Only 44 lucky members as of now

Wicked is one of the year's biggest phenomenons. After years on the stage, the Wizard of Oz prequel finally made it to the big screen and landed ten nominations, including Best Actress (Cynthia Erivo), Best Supporting Actress (Ariana Grande), Editing, and Best Picture. The winning nomination paid tribute to the best costuming of the year, and Chu led the charge with one of the best looks on the red carpet. Of course, he wore green, which paid homage to his Best Actress nomination, but that isn't the only thing that made this dinner jacket stand out. It is a custom piece from NB44, one of the most exclusive LA brands. Launched by Nicolas Bijan, only members get access to his exclusive three or four collections a year. While you can apply to be an addition to the small 44-member brand, it costs a cool twelve grand just for access. No matter the cost, Jon Chu's was the best red carpet costume, making the twelve grand almost worth it.

An expert from Moose Knuckles explains this year’s long coat obsession
Industry expert helps us with the long winter coat
man in long coat

When I walked around New York City throughout the month of February, I noticed a trend that seemed to overtake the entire island of Manhatten: The men's long winter coat. Around every corner during New York Men's Day and New York Fashion Week were puffer coats extending all the way to the mid-shins or lower. While the Big Apple is one of the colder big cities, I was surprised to see a melting pot of a city entirely overtaken by one overwhelming trend. In an attempt to understand the phenomenon, I reached out to Ryan Lewis, Director of Community & Culture at Moose Knuckles, one of the brands with the most significant footprint among the bundled-up masses.
Why the long coat?

The key to wearing a coat and remaining stylish is to strike a balance between something fashionable and something functional. You need to be protected from the winds, rains, snows, and ice, but that doesn't mean you can't look as good as you feel. Lewis believes that is partially what drove that explosion this season.

Vince. wants you to leave an OOO ‘Gone Fishin’
Get the gone fishin' vibe with Vince.
Vince Gone Fishin

Growing up, there was always a surefire sign that spring was on the way. Of course, the weather would change, and I would put the sweaters away and break out the summer wardrobe, but there was another more instinctual sign. Like it was some kind of sixth sense, my father and my grandfather would begin to dress as if they were an hour away from hooking up the boat and heading out to the lake or the river for the fishing season. While I may not be saying you should start wearing your father or grandfather's fishing vest with extra fishhook and lures, Vince. has a new focus this spring. The Vince 'Gone Fishin' line is an elevated version of what my father and grandfather would salivate over every year.
Complete with the loafers

Any good fishing ensemble the men and women in my family wore as they left for the fishing boat included a pair of breathable cargo pants. The cotton-linen cargo pants are perfect for the day on the lake. The natural fibers breathe, and the extra storage is just what any good fisherman needs. Pair those cargo pants with a good, short-sleeve button-up, and you have the look any good fisherman has in his closet. Vince. has a good collection of short-sleeve button-ups to choose from, but their 100% hemp option is perfect for the day on the water. Finally, no good fishing outfit would be good without the perfect loafer. While they have a couple of great options, picking up their jelly sandals is the perfect finishing touch to get you ready for fishing season.
