Are you a clothing reseller & want to know what brands sell the best on eBay? This will be the post for you!
My VA Loreto gathered some awesome data for us all, these are the criteria he used:
- Used men’s clothing
- Sold in the entire year in 2020
- US market only
- Does NOT include shoes
This data was gathered using Terapeak, which is a pretty much eBays “sold listings” on steroids…

My FAVORITE mens brands to resell on eBay
- CC Filson
- Arc’Teryx
- Patagonia
- North Face
- Castelli
This list may look familiar to some of you guys, but lets talk about it.
CC Filson is an awesome brand when it comes to resell value, their stuff is NOT cheap. One big tip here… they make oil waxed jackets, it may smell like motor oil, but they sell for a TON of money. Don’t pass on those.
This is a hard brand to find, but when you do it is always worth money, no matter what the item is!
Arc’teryx is one of those brands that many people don’t know about at thrift stores, honestly because it’s hard to find. Over the years, I have only found it 4 times.
Great brand & sells really fast when in good shape. The jackets can go for hundreds of dollars.
BE VERY CAREFUL!
There is a brand that is called Arctix, this brand is GARBAGE and almost tries to trick you into thinking they are Arc’Teryx. Just pay attention!
Patagonia & North Face will be grouped together in this post because they are pretty similar. You will always find them in outdoors type areas, especially if you live in the mountains like us.
Both great brands, but Patagonia is just slightly better and overall brings more money. North Face is a bit more mass-produced, so not as special.
BUT, North Face does have “hype culture” behind it, by doing collabs with brands like Supreme, they have elevated some pieces to be worth over $1000!
Word of caution about North Face… it is one the MOST faked brands in the world. Learn what the real stuff feels like. Typically the fakes are easy to spot as they tags will be awful quality and have common misspellings.
See this video for an example I found recently at Goodwill.
I’m willing to bet most of you reading this have never heard of the brand Castelli…
It is a cycling brand that can be found in nicer areas. Their stuff usually isn’t cheap when new so the resell value stays higher compare to other cycling brands.
Overall the cycling niche is a GREAT one because so many people are into it. These folks also do care about fashion, typically these jerseys show off some aspect of the person. Whether it’s their favorite cycling team, a local club, or just a crazy colored jersey.
Other cycling brands to be aware of: Pearl Izumi, Zoic & Club Ride
