I am looking to give my men’s clothes that I just don’t really wear anymore a second life. I would love to donate my clothes to something like thread up, but they don’t take men’s clothes. I would prefer to donate somewhere where clothes will get used and not just landfilled. It feels like resale/consignment has the highest odds of clothes getting actual use, but would prefer to donate to people who need it. I just hear stories of like goodwill and others landfilling a large percentages of donations and want to avoid that.
Does anyone know of local places (WI) to donate men’s clothes or nationwide places that would also be a good way to divert my clothes from landfills? If textile recycling is also the way to go, I would be interested in any recommendations.
If there is another more ethical/ecologically conscious way to give these clothes a second life, I would love to hear about that.
