Pre-owned items are articles of clothing that have been retired from someone else closet. 

Pre-owned items already exist, so they require no additional resources and energy to create, contributing zero additional carbon emissions, pollution, and other environmental damages. Additionally, Pre-owned garments are being saved from being thrown away. Around €150 million worth of textile waste goes to landfill and waste each year. Buying pre-owned garments gives clothing second lives, building circularity in the fashion industry, and shortening the demand for new garments.

Pre-owned garments are also often more special because they are often one of a kind because they aren’t sold commercially anymore. They can make your wardrobe more unique, showing your individuality.

Pre-owned items help you reduce the impact of your purchase and close the loop. Around €150 million worth of textile waste goes to landfill and waste each year. By choosing pre-owned items you are keeping them in circle for longer.

Items can be returned 14 days after the delivery.

Beaded Pale Yellow Jumper - M

Italian brand which name comes from the Tuscan dialect and it means redoing. A 0 km name for a local clothing production that takes up the tradition of textile upcycling

To Rifo, sustainable fashion is the emotional one. It consists in giving value to what people wear: don't forget clothes, don't throw them away, try to repair them, readjust them for a different use. Their brand doesn't believe in sales, discounts, black Friday: they want to sell their products because people really need them and not just because of compulsive consumption

Each of Rifò's garments are made from a tradition of Made in Italy craftsmanship, which has always been synonymous with high quality

Rifò products are packaged and shipped by default through recycled cardboard packaging and plastic free materials, 100% recyclable and made in Italy. Alternatively, they offer their customers the option to choose Repack, a reusable packaging service that reduces the impact of traditional packaging by 20 times

The materials Rifò uses are innovative because they are the result of an industrial tradition and energy savings. Not only do they recycle old garments in production, but they reduce the consumption of water, pesticides and chemicals; normally used during the production. They also ban the use of harmful substances indicated by the REC

Rifò wants to do its part creating ethical garments, made by recycling fibers that are also as natural as possible. On average, in their one-year production they use 92% of fibers from recycled materials and only 8% of virgin fibers. They also try to go towards zero waste production, minimizing the leftovers using them for new collections and limited editions

Depending on which item, Rifò uses the made to order way of producing in order to avoid waste. This means that they will start producing your item only once you have ordered it. 

Each of Rifo's products are made in Prato Italy, less than 30 km away from the brand's homebase

Recycled cotton is re-purposed, post-industrial or post-consumer cotton that would otherwise become waste. For example, imagine a factory that cuts patterns for clothing out of big sheets of fabric and has all the in-between pieces to discard. The scraps of such cut and sew facilities are post-industrial cotton “waste” that have the capacity to be recycled. Post consumer waste is material discarded after someone uses it. 

Recycled cotton’s production process saves resources and energy to create, because their raw material already exists! It gives discarded cotton a purpose, keeping material in the loop for longer, contributing to circular fashion.

Recycled cotton comes from the soft and fluffy part of the cotton plant. It is a lightweight material that is durable, making it a wardrobe staple, and can last in your closet for years to come.

Recycled cotton can be recycled again and again, creating a new recycled cotton clothing. It is also a bio-based material, making it biodegradable, so it can fully decompose when it has grown too old to be recycled again.
