Top 5 Types of Vintage Clothing That Sell Fast on Vinted
Imagine this: you’re on Vinted, full of enthusiasm, and you’ve just added ten new items to your shop. You’re all set to sell! But then doubt strikes—what exactly makes something sell quickly on Vinted? Of course, you want your clothes to find a new home quickly. What can you pay attention to to increase that chance of a quick sale? We’d like to list it for you clearly and honestly, so that you can get started with confidence.
As a reseller, you don't want dead stock. You want flow. Items that click, are liked, and preferably sold within a few days.
In this blog, we share the 5 best types of vintage clothing to sell on Vinted — based on data, experience, and sales trends.
1. Branded vintage sweaters (Nike, Adidas, Reebok, etc.)
Absolute number 1. As long as there is a logo on it, there is demand.
Buyers are increasingly looking for specific brands. Are you offering an oversized sweater with an iconic logo, and in top condition? Then there is a good chance that your item will find a new owner very quickly, often within a week. So make sure that your offer is in the spotlight and seize that sales opportunity!
Price range: €29.99 – €49.99
Chance of sale: High (with good photos + description)
2. Sports team gear (NFL, NBA, college)
American sports teams are popular, also in Europe. Clothing items such as crewnecks, hoodies, jackets and caps with team logos are increasingly worn. Choose these items to easily put together a trendy look and benefit from the growing popularity of sports fashion. When selecting your favorite teams and designs, pay attention to quality and authenticity to make the best impression.
What works extra well:
- NFL/NBA Jerseys from the 90s
- College logo sweaters
- “Vintage USA vibe” colors (burgundy, navy, forest green)
Pro tip: always include the team and year in your title.
3. Oversized hoodies in basic colors
Sometimes it doesn't have to be so complicated. A grey or black hoodie that fits well, with subtle branding, often turns out to sell very quickly. Let's be honest: sometimes the basics are the favorite, because they go with everything and always feel nice.
Why? Because it is easy to combine. Both men and women buy it.
Brand is less important — fit + vibe counts here.
Retail price: €19 – €34
It's about volume, not hype
4. Oldschool polos & rugby shirts
Not for everyone — but that's exactly why they're extra attractive to styling clients or specialized niche shops looking for unique products. These items appeal to people who value a distinctive look and want to add that little bit of extra flair to their assortment or personal style. Perfect for those who dare to choose something special and want to stand out from the crowd.
Think about:
- Ralph Lauren
- Lacoste
- Tommy Hilfiger
- Vertical stripes, thick collars, colour blocks
Good for spring/summer sales. Higher value if unique.
5. Windbreakers & light jackets
In the mid-season (spring/fall) windbreakers are the hit. Retro colours, nylon fabric, big zippers: everything that vintage is about.
Best brands:
- Nike
- Cap
- Adidas
- Fila
Clearly indicate whether the zipper works properly and whether there are pockets in the garment. For example, state whether the zipper opens and closes smoothly, so that potential buyers know that it can be used without problems. Also state how many pockets there are, where they are and whether they can be closed with, for example, a zipper or button closure. This information helps interested parties to get a better picture of the garment and makes your offer more attractive.
How do you use this information wisely?
- Make targeted purchases (for example via our curated boxes)
- Put these categories front and center on your Vinted profile
- Use keywords like “oversized”, “vintage Nike”, “college sweater”, “USA sport”
More sales = better purchasing + smarter uploading.
