Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Depop or Grailed are the best for this specific aesthetic. eBay is a strong secondary choice for reaching serious collectors. Use Instagram/TikTok to showcase the 'swing' of the wide legs.
Selling Tips
Measure the leg opening (flat across) and include it in the description—buyers search for specific widths (e.g., 26-inch, 32-inch). Use keywords: Y2K, Skater, Rave, Baggy, Cyber, 90s. Highlight the neon green bungee cords in the cover photo.
