Pendleton Woolen Mills has launched a peer-to-peer resale marketplace called Pendleton Preloved. The platform allows customers to buy and sell pre-owned apparel, accessories, and wool blankets directly.
Why it matters
The initiative supports the company legacy of crafting durable products intended to be passed down through generations. It also provides shoppers with a digital space to discover vintage and past-season collections.
The new marketplace features an initial collection of 200 items from the brand's vault, including pieces previously exclusive to Japan and the UK. The company brings this service to market following a 160-year brand history.
