How do the swaps work?

Each swap is a little different, but generally there are two different styles of events that we host.

One style focuses on a barter system where individuals will set up their own section of clothing and then can trade with others.

The other style can be described as the take one leave one system. Attendees will bring a certain amount of items to let go of, and in return, they can take the equivalent amount of items they came with from the piles in the swap section.

At each event we have a donation section that is taken to non-profits in need. We average around 150+ pounds of clothing donated after every event.

How often do you host events?

We host events on average 2-3 per season. With the addition of our NYC branch, we will be slowly integrating more events into our calendar. With small companies come frequent changes, but our goal is to host as many as possible! Check out our Instagram or Events page to see upcoming events!

Where are these events located?

As of right now we are based mainly in Boston and New York City. Each event is located in a new place, and organized slightly differently. We pride ourselves on creating unique experiences for attendees.
