thredUP, the premier peer-to-peer online clothing exchange, recently announced the launch of its much-anticipated service for kids clothing. thredUP kids is the place for America’s busiest families to conveniently exchange kids clothing online.
The service aims to bring a new level of affordability, convenience and eco-consciousness to a highly fragmented, billion-dollar market for second-hand children’s clothing. thredUP kids is designed to help parents easily swap clothes their kids have outgrown for great new items that fit. thredUP’s best-in-class interface allows parents to exchange with their closest friends or with a national network of parents – all from the convenience of home.
thredUP kids combines the best features of some of the most popular sites on the web: Like Netflix, parents can queue up a box of gently used clothes to receive. Then, similar to eBay, members build virtual boxes of clothing to exchange. Finally, like StubHub, thredUP enables, coordinates and manages the exchanges. The marketplace facilitates exact matches, ensures quality and remedies the lack of coordination that plagues offline clothing swaps. The service is a complete end-to-end solution for busy parents.
“Children grow out of clothes every 3-6 months, having worn outfits only a couple of times,” said James Reinhart, Chief Knitwit of thredUP. “Currently parents are spending upwards of $20,000 on kids clothing by the time their child is 17. And they’re retiring some 1,400 items! We’ve found that many ’swap, buy, sell’ sites are not that enticing to busy parents. They are just too much work. thredUP is all about convenience.”
The kids service launches on the heels of the popular men’s and women’s shirt-swapping site, which went live in October 2009. While this service already has 10,000 members, the team anticipates that thredUP kids will be an even bigger hit in the hand-me-down market.
“The initial feedback has been tremendous,” said Oliver Lubin, Chief Design Knitwit. “In the first two weeks of a private beta launch we have over 1,500 excited parents signed-up to start swapping. Members seem to love the intuitive interface and overall thredUP experience.”
The service launches invite-only today. For more information about thredUP kids visit: thredUP.com

Last September Sears released their first line of kids clothing co-branded with hiphop icon LL Cool J, including apparel for juniors, kids and young men.
And right now, they have a sale on with up to 50% discounts…!
By partnering with a celebrity like LL Cool J, who has earned 10 platinum albums and two Grammy Awards, the struggling retailer hoped to reach multicultural shoppers, particularly African Americans. Sears said LL Cool J’s line represents shoppers who desire authentic, affordable streetwear. LL cited his mother, wife and three daughters as inspiration for knowing that girls (and boys) want to dress well.
LL was also quoted as saying “One of the happiest times I can remember was my grandfather taking me to Sears every weekend when I was a child. I am pleased to bring an authentic brand to Sears customers across the county who represent those people and family members who influenced the person I am today.”
They have some fantastic items, with a very varied range.
