Scandinavian Fashion Brand Launches Resell Tag to Extend Use of its Clothing

Created by Uncle Grey, the tag for Sams酶e Sams酶e holds a scannable code to make it easier for shoppers to resell clothes

To help with the recycling of its clothing, Scandinavian fashion brand Sams酶e Sams酶e has launched the Resell Tag 鈥 a tag stitched into items of clothing which bears a scannable QR code to make it easier for shoppers to resell clothes.  

The fashion industry, one of the world鈥檚 most polluting industries, is responsible for 10% of global CO2 emissions. Worse, clothing is being worn less and less. The average usage of an item of clothing before it is left in the back of the closet has decreased by more than 85% since 2002, according to data from Euromonitor. 

Meanwhile, some 33% of shoppers perceive a piece of clothing as 'old' after having worn it just three times, other studies show. As a result of all this, $500 billion is lost each year because of under-wearing and failure to use clothing we have grown tired of, Greenpeace estimates. 

The ground breaking solution, devised by Uncle Grey, ensures the clothing gets properly worn 鈥 if not by its original purchaser, then by someone else who buys it on the resell market 鈥 by making reselling much easier which, in turn, will help reduce clothing ending up ignored at the back of a closet.

The Resell Tag is a scannable code on pieces of clothing that activates a series of automatic digital actions. Once the tag is scanned with a smartphone, a connection with Meta鈥檚 marketplace, Facebook and Instagram is automatically made and a mock up of an ad based on the datapoints from the clothing (style, size, colour, age) is automatically created, including images. 

Once a user has previewed the auto generated copy and added their desired price for the item, the ad is then automatically published, creating a hyper local campaign to promote the item to put it in front of potential buyers.

The Resell Tag is being launched across eight different styles in the Sams酶e Sams酶e collection and will be rolled out across a wider range of items in the coming year.

The launch is being supported through in-store activations, SoMe and featured on the brand鈥檚 own digital channels. There will also be traditional activity geared towards lifestyle and fashion brands. 

Peter Sextus, CEO Sams酶e Sams酶e said: 鈥淭he life cycle of our products is a central part of becoming a more responsible brand and the Resell Tag is an integral part of that journey.鈥

Lars Samuelsen, creative chairman & chief strategy officer, Uncle Grey, says: 鈥淲hen you think of reselling clothes, most of us are stopped by the process of doing so. The Resell Tag solves a very real problem and could become the solution for the fashion industry.鈥
