Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Poshmark, Mercari, or Depop. These platforms are ideal for mid-market boutique brands where buyers look for everyday staples.
Selling Tips
Clean the footbed with a suede brush and a small amount of rubbing alcohol to minimize the appearance of toe imprints. Use keywords like 'Boho,' 'Cork Footbed,' 'Comfort,' and 'Earth Tones.' List during Spring or Early Summer for the fastest sale.
