FAQs

General

What is RELOOP

RELOOP is here to help you buy and sell Pre-Loved Premium Fashion. We believe that a well designed item deserves more than one life.

Together with our sister company GlamCorner, Australia’s leading designer rental destination, we are on a mission to revolutionise the way fashion is consumed and close the consumption waste loop.

I forgot to add my items to RELOOP when purchasing them, can I still list them on Reloop?

Yes! You can add the item directly to your RELOOP account by following the steps here.

What is circular fashion?

It’s a reuse revolution! Circular fashion is the practice of using items that already exist. Circular fashion models include rental, resale, creating long-lasting designs and repairing garments. Reusing garments extends the lifespan of a product while reducing the amount of clothing sent to landfills.

What happens to my items when I choose to recycle them?

For clothing items that are not resalable, we offer our customers the option to donate their items via our service partnership with not-for-profit organisation, Dress for Success.

How does RELOOP work with retailers?

The resale economy has been growing steadily over the past few years, and the COVID-19 crisis accelerated that growth: 57% of consumers report making significant changes to their lifestyle to lessen their environmental impact.

When you partner with RELOOP we give you more than just a plugin for your site (though we do include that). Of course, we’ll handle all the logistics of the resale process, but we’ll also provide a white label website, specifically tailored for your brand and customers. Find out more here.

Why should I purchase Pre-Loved over new?

There are many benefits associated with buying Pre-Loved garments. The most obvious is saving money, but more importantly, you’re helping the environment by extending a garment’s lifecycle. To make sure the benefits are accurately portrayed, RELOOP has partnered with BCOME to assess the carbon emission impact of buying a Pre-Loved item compared to buying a new one. This information is available on the product page of each item on the RELOOP site. By purchasing Pre-Loved (compared to buying brand new), customers can save up to 47 kg of CO2 (based on a Pre-Loved verse new coat) - that is the equivalent of charging 90 mobile phones for one year! Our goal at RELOOP is to give garments as many lives as possible.

How do we send your purchase out?

We send out your Pre-Loved purchases in a box made from 75% recycled materials. The sticky tape is biodegradable and the stickers we use are compostable.

Does RELOOP have a Supply Chain Policy?

Yes! You can read more about our Supply Chain Policy here.

What are the sustainability metrics?

Sustainability metrics are available on the product page of each item on RELOOP. We have benchmarked the environmental impacts of a second-hand garment with an equivalent new item with similar composition and weight. Due to the special and unique features of secondhand  garments, the given figures are based on an average of product categories - however, it must be acknowledged that the environmental impacts vary depending on the composition, product type and garment condition. The sustainability metrics have been estimated based on the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) developed by BCOME that compares the impact of buying secondhand versus buying an equivalent new item.
