If you’ve been thinking about decluttering or turning your unwanted items into cash, Vinted is still one of the best places to do it in 2025. I’ve sold over 2,000 items on there myself, and with the right approach, it can be an easy way to earn extra money from things you no longer use. Over time, I’ve learned what sells quickly, what’s worth holding onto for the right buyer, and what usually lingers without much interest. Here’s an updated look at the best things to sell on Vinted this year, along with a few that might need more patience — plus plenty of insider tips to help you get more sales.

Best Things to Sell on Vinted in 2025
1. Branded Clothing in Excellent Condition
Clothing from well-known brands continues to dominate sales on Vinted. Zara, H&M, River Island, Next, and ASOS are always safe bets. Items from high-end labels like Reiss, Whistles, or AllSaints often fetch higher prices, while fast-fashion brands like Shein or Primark sell best when listed in bundles.
If you’re reselling, keep an eye out for in-demand collaborations or trending styles. And before you list, give everything a quick wash, remove lint, and take photos in natural light. A tidy background and a few close-ups make a huge difference in attracting buyers.
Tip: Add specific keywords like “Zara linen blend dress” or “Nike oversized hoodie” — buyers often search by style or fabric, not just brand.
2. Activewear and Loungewear
Comfort is still king in 2025. Gym leggings, sports bras, joggers, and oversized sweatshirts are top sellers, especially from brands like Gymshark, Nike, Adidas, and Lululemon. Even high-quality supermarket brands like F&F or George Active can sell if they’re in great condition.
Sets or matching pieces perform best, as buyers love a ready-made outfit. And if your pieces are hardly worn, highlight that in your description — “only worn once” really helps buyers trust your listings.
3. Vintage and Y2K Fashion
Y2K fashion is still having its moment. Think early-2000s denim, baby tees, and quirky accessories. Vintage sportswear from brands like Umbro, Reebok, or Champion also performs well. If you have anything that feels nostalgic, there’s a buyer out there for it.
To get noticed, use style-related tags like “Y2K”, “retro”, or “vintage aesthetic”. These attract Gen Z buyers searching for inspiration from TikTok trends.
4. Trainers, Shoes, and Boots
Footwear can be one of the most profitable categories on Vinted — as long as you’re honest about wear and tear. Popular styles like Converse, Nike Air Force 1s, or chunky boots sell well year-round. If you’re reselling limited-edition trainers or barely worn designer shoes, take extra care with your listing photos and details.
Always show soles, insides, and any marks clearly. Buyers appreciate transparency and will often pay more for listings that show every angle.
Tip: Consider using a fresh mailing bag to protect shoes during shipping — I’ve shared my favourites in Mailing Bags for Vinted.
5. Baby and Children’s Clothes
If you’re a parent, Vinted can be a goldmine for decluttering. Children outgrow clothes so quickly, and bundles of baby grows, jackets, and school uniforms sell fast. Brands like Next, M&S, Joules, and Frugi tend to perform best.
Bundle items by size or season — for example, “Girls’ 3–4 Years Summer Bundle”. Buyers love the convenience, and you’ll clear space faster.
6. Bags and Accessories
Small, lightweight accessories are perfect for Vinted because they’re cheap to post and appeal to impulse buyers. Branded handbags (especially from Michael Kors, Radley, or Coach), crossbody bags, and minimal leather purses are popular.
Belts, hats, scarves, and sunglasses can sell well too — especially if you group similar pieces together.
7. Beauty Products (Unopened Only)
Vinted allows sealed beauty and skincare items, and they can sell surprisingly quickly. Perfume gift sets, limited edition eyeshadow palettes, and popular skincare brands like The Ordinary or Clinique are all good sellers.
Just make sure they’re completely unused and ideally still in original packaging. Opened products aren’t allowed under Vinted’s hygiene rules.
8. Home Décor and Small Homeware
This is a growing category in 2025. Think candles, small décor items, or unused kitchen gadgets. Buyers are drawn to minimalist or aesthetic home accessories — especially if they’re featured in trending TikTok home hauls.
Keep shipping costs in mind, though. Anything breakable or bulky may not be worth it once postage is added.
9. Books, Games, and Collectibles
Books and collectibles are often overlooked, but they do well when priced right. Fiction sets, cookbooks, or books by trending authors move quickly. Limited editions or pop culture items — like Funko Pops or movie merchandise — are worth listing too.
If something hasn’t sold after a few weeks, try adjusting your title or description, or follow my guide on how to relist on Vinted to bring it back to the top of search results.
10. Plus-Size Clothing
There’s a high demand for stylish plus-size clothing on Vinted, but not nearly enough supply. Sizes 18–28 sell fast, especially from brands like Yours, Simply Be, and Evans.
Highlight comfort fabrics, fit details, and show how pieces look when worn if you can. Buyers appreciate realistic sizing information more than anything.
What Doesn’t Sell Well on Vinted (But Still Might Be Worth a Try)
Now, I’ll be honest — I’ve personally sold most of the items people say don’t sell on Vinted. So don’t take this section as a rulebook, just a guide. With the right price, clear photos, and good timing, almost anything can find a new home.
Still, here are a few things that tend to take longer to sell or need extra care to get noticed.
1. Worn or Damaged Clothing
Heavily used items can sell if they’re rare or branded, but generally they need to be in very good condition. If there’s minor damage (like a missing button), note it in the description and price accordingly. Transparency builds trust and avoids refunds.
2. Unbranded Basics
Plain T-shirts, leggings, and supermarket basics don’t usually sell quickly unless they’re brand new or bundled together. Try grouping them by colour or type to make your listing stand out.
3. Large or Bulky Home Items
Furniture and large décor are tricky because buyers don’t want to pay high postage. Local pickup might help, but most Vinted users shop for smaller, easy-to-post items.
4. Used Beauty Products
Opened or swatched makeup isn’t allowed under Vinted’s policy. If you’re unsure, read Is Vinted Safe? where I cover what’s allowed and how to stay compliant.
5. Out-of-Season Items
Seasonal clothes can sit for months if listed at the wrong time. I’ve found it better to store them and relist closer to the right season. For example, post your Christmas jumpers in early November, not February.
6. Occasion Wear and Wedding Dresses
These can sell, but you need patience. High-end or timeless pieces fare better. Use keywords like “occasion dress” or “evening gown” to improve your chances.

FAQ about the Best Things to Sell on Vinted
Absolutely. Vinted has grown massively and is now one of the top resale platforms in the UK. Whether you’re decluttering or flipping stock, there’s money to be made with minimal effort.
Yes! Most buyers are looking for a bargain or sustainable alternatives to buying new. As long as your photos are clear and your items are in good condition, second-hand absolutely sells.
Use searchable titles (like “M&S floral midi dress size 14”), include full-length and close-up photos, and always be honest about the condition. A friendly, responsive seller often wins the sale over someone slower to reply.
Search for similar items and price just under them if you want a quick sale. If your item is brand new with tags or rare, you can list higher — just expect to receive offers.
Don’t give up straight away. Relist your item, adjust the title, or improve the main photo. You can read my full step-by-step guide on how to relist on Vinted.
