Vinted is a peer-to-peer second-hand fashion and clothing resale app based in Lithuania. It allows individuals to list, buy, and sell used clothing, shoes, and accessories. Vinted is officially an 18+ platform, but it is widely used by teenagers, often with parental accounts or by falsifying their age. The platform involves buyers and sellers exchanging messages, arranging collection or shipping, and — for local collection sales — potentially sharing home addresses or meeting in person with strangers.
Teenagers use Vinted to buy affordable second-hand fashion and to sell their own clothes. Many use a parent's account with their parent's knowledge; others create their own accounts by entering a false age. The appeal is economic — quality branded clothing at low prices — and it aligns with sustainability trends popular with young people.
