Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Poshmark or eBay are best for this brand due to their high volume of Western footwear buyers. Depop is a secondary option for the 'festival' and 'eclectic' aesthetic.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Day of the Dead', 'Calavera', 'Rockabilly', and 'Festival'. Take clear photos of the inner brand stamp and the soles to show wear level. Stuff the shafts with pool noodles or paper for photos to show the skull design without the leather flopping.
