Go Circular with Recurate

Circularity is one of the things we look for on our criteria, earning brands like Patagonia and Taylor Stitch points for taking back, repairing, and reselling their clothes. But the cost of a program like WornWear can be prohibitive to a small brand. That’s why we partnered with our friends at Recurate to help smaller brands that are interested in incorporating circularity, at a much lower price. They utilize a Shopify app to allow you to resell your customers to resell your brand’s second-hand clothes right on your website, keeping those clothes in the loop and keeping your customers on your site. If this is something you’d like to discuss more contact us to jump on a 15 minute call.
