Carhartt Launches Reworked Resale Site and Trade-In Program

Born from a legacy of building durable gear with the highest quality materials, America’s premium workwear brand Carhartt, in partnership with Trove, launched Carhartt Reworked, a resale program dedicated to extending the life of workwear, reducing clothing waste and keeping previously worn and slightly imperfect gear out of landfills.

The new Carhartt Reworked program, which is the first branded resale site in the workwear industry, supports Carhartt’s sustainability journey aimed at building a better world by creating a circular recommerce model that extends the life of its durable gear and reduces clothing waste.

With the experience that Trove has as a market leader in branded resale, Carhartt Reworked does just what the name suggests: reworks previously worn or slightly imperfect gear that isn’t done working and gets it passed along to people who can put it to good use. The program is built on product that is submitted through consumer trade-in and customer returns or imperfect inventory.

• Consumer Trade-In: The reworked program will accept trade-in of select Carhartt products that meet the requirements. All accepted products must meet condition standards, must be less than 10 years old and are required to have had an original MSRP cost of $50 or more. The product categories include: outerwear, shirt jacs, bibs and overalls, hoodies, sweatshirts and pants. For those who bring eligible gear to participating Carhartt stores, the customer can exchange their gear for a digital gift card, which can be used on reworked.carhartt.com, Carhartt.com or at any Carhartt Company Store. Any gear not eligible for trade in will be properly recycled or donated to keep fabric out of landfills; and
• Returns/Imperfect Inventory: Depending on the garment’s condition, the product will either be immediately available for resale, cleaned, repaired and reassessed or be removed from circulation and recycled.

Beginning March 1, reworked products will be available for purchase at reworked.carhartt.com, and participating Carhartt retail stores will accept in-store trade-ins. The trade in program will pilot in six stores across the U.S. before expanding to all Carhartt retail locations in 2023. As the program evolves, trade-ins will be available via online mail-in.
