Now, it’s taking those ideals a step further with the launch of Pre-Loved, its new official resale marketplace designed to give favourite pieces a second life. So, if you’re forever being pipped to the post on fervently favourited Scamp & Dude Vinted posts, there is now another way to lay hands on previously owned beauties that have years of life left in them.
Pre-Loved feels like a natural evolution of Scamp & Dude’s ethos – a thoughtful way to keep its vibrant designs in circulation while keeping hold of the sense of connection that has always defined the brand.
Do note – it’s exclusively available to members of the Charge Your Bolt loyalty programme, but if you count yourself amongst that number, the platform makes it refreshingly simple for devotees to sell or buy pre-loved pieces directly from one another. Sellers are then rewarded not only with 110% of the sale value in store credit, but also with the knowledge that their beloved items will continue on with a new lease of life – bringing a little of that trademark ‘superpower’ to someone new.
As founder and CEO Jo Tutchener Sharp puts it, ‘Launching our pre-loved marketplace marks an important step in our journey to transform fashion into a force for good.’
And indeed, in an industry often criticised for excess and disposability, Scamp & Dude’s Pre-Loved initiative offers a refreshing model for conscious consumption: clothes with longevity and communities that care.
So, if you find yourself clearing space in your wardrobe or searching for a much-loved hero piece you missed the first time around, Scamp & Dude’s Pre-Loved marketplace promises to make sustainable shopping something joyful – a genuine exchange of good energy, as well as good style.

Three Other Brands Championing Resale
Toast Reworn
A pioneer in slow fashion, Toast’s Renewed initiative repairs and restores pre-worn garments to extend their lifespan, giving beautiful clothes a second chapter. Its Reworn section, meanwhile, sells on pre-loved pieces, donating 10% of the proceeds to the charity Traid. Everyone’s a winner.
Baukjen – Re-love, Repurpose, Recycle
Baukjen encourages customers to trade in their gently worn garments via its Re-love programme. Items are conscientiously inspected and those still in good enough nick are refurbished and resold; ones that can’t be resold are repurposed or recycled. Baukjen UK customers get free shipping for trade-ins and receive site credit in return.
Rixo Re-Love
Rixo’s Re-Love platform lets fans buy and sell authentic pre-loved Rixo pieces within its community, celebrating the enduring appeal of vintage-inspired design.
