How it works
Selling is simple – and free
No fees, no commission, no stock to send us. You list, we put your shoes in front of the right people, and the buyer deals with you directly.
01
Tell us about them
Brand, size, width, last and condition, plus your asking price and a few good photos.
02
Show they’re yours
One extra photo of the shoes beside a handwritten note with the date. Only we see it.
03
We list and share them
After a quick review your shoes go live here and are posted to our Instagram followers.
04
Sell directly
Buyers message you on Instagram or by email. You agree payment and postage – and keep every penny.
For buyers
Buying from a private seller
Message the seller
Each listing has a button to contact the seller directly – ask about fit, wear or postage.
Ask for more photos
Soles, insoles, heels and the size stamp. Good sellers are happy to share.
Pay with protection
Use PayPal Goods & Services or another protected method – never a bank transfer to someone you don’t know.

Questions
Good to know
Does it cost anything to list?
No. Listing is free and we don’t take commission – the buyer pays you directly.
How do buyers pay?
You arrange it with the buyer. We recommend PayPal Goods & Services or another method with buyer and seller protection.
Do you authenticate the shoes?
We review every listing and ask for a proof-of-ownership photo, but we don’t physically inspect shoes. Ask the seller questions and pay with protection.
How long does approval take?
Usually a day or two. We’ll email you as soon as your listing is live.
My shoes have sold – what now?
Reply to your listing email and we’ll mark them as sold on the site and Instagram.
Got a pair that deserves a second life?
List them in a few minutes. It’s free, and you deal with the buyer directly.
