In Telluride, we embrace community and sustainable living, and the Patagonia Telluride Kids Clothing Swap offers the perfect blend of both. Join other local families on November 16, 2024, for a unique event that turns outgrown kids’ clothes into fresh finds for new owners. This event is all about lightening the load on our wallets and the environment, making it easier for families to enjoy top-quality gear without the price tag of brand-new items.
Why Attend the Kids Clothing Swap?
This event encourages Telluride families to swap pre-loved items that are still in great condition, helping each other save while cutting down on waste. From shirts and jackets to shoes and backpacks, any clean, gently worn item for kids ages 0-13 is welcome. Each piece brought to the event earns a swap ticket for picking out “new-to-you” clothing from other participants. Plus, if your child’s closet is full of back-to-school items, pencil boxes, or small accessories they no longer need, this swap is the perfect chance to find them a new home.
The Kids Clothing Swap at Patagonia Telluride promotes the reuse of high-quality items and strengthens our local community. For families who plan to attend, dropping off clothes in the week leading up to the event will help Patagonia fill out the racks in advance, ensuring a diverse selection for everyone. Swapping tickets are limited to around six items per participant, allowing the racks to stay organized and full of fresh options.
What Not to Bring
The swap encourages gently used clothing but has a few restrictions for hygienic reasons. Please leave personal garments like underwear, base layers, swimsuits, hats, and heavily worn items at home. The focus is on sharing items that are in excellent condition, providing families with high-quality options to choose from on swap day.
Supporting True North
Any remaining items at the end of the event will be donated to True North, a local non-profit serving children who need warm, durable clothing. This means your donation goes beyond the swap itself, helping families year-round.
Join the Fun!
Bring the kids along for a morning of sustainable shopping with a twist. Held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on November 16, Patagonia Telluride’s Kids Clothing Swap is a great chance to get involved in your community and embrace a lifestyle of reusing and reducing. See you there!
