FAQ

It means you will receive 40% off for each item you trade up; for example, if you selected 5 items to trade up, you will get 40% off your next purchase, up to 5 items.

In addition, you will also get:

  • An effortless way to keep your little one’s closet clean and organized.
  • No hassle of selling on Facebook for pennies.
  • No contribution to landfills.

Most babies go through 4-5 sizes within their first year of life. Many pieces are outgrown after only 1-2 wears, some even before they are worn at all.

Existing options to manage these outgrown clothes are not ideal, and some are very bad.

  • Hand-me-downs are amazing, but not applicable to every family (e.g. gender or season might be different)
  • Selling on marketplaces requires a lot of time to take photos, answer inquiries, and meet up with strangers; time that new parents often don't have
  • Donation boxes are a black hole; and often the clothes just end up in landfills
  • Landfills are just terrible

We created the Trade-Up program because we know that outgrown baby clothes, especially ones like ours that are crafted with high quality materials, can still be worn. We want to maximize their useful life, reduce the need to produce totally new pieces, and create value for parents so they can save money while being eco-friendly.

In an industry where success = producing more, we want to change that equation, and make success = producing fewer products but more value.

It's easy! Once your little one outgrows their OLT clothes:

  1. Log into your account.
  2. Select the items that you want to trade up.
  3. You will receive an email with a shipping label and a unique code for 40% off the same number of items you are trading up.
  4. Shop new items and apply the code at checkout. A US$10 (C$15 for Canada) fee will apply to cover shipping cost of your trade-up items.
  5. You have 30 days to send back the outgrown items.

All apparel items are eligible.

Pocket Pals are not eligible for trade-up. They can continue to be used even as your little one grow, as part of the toy collection or as an accessory on backpacks or strollers.

No restrictions.
