Uptown Cheapskate

Uptown Cheapskate is redefining secondhand fashion with a curated, upscale resale experience that blends style, affordability, and sustainability. Founded in 2008 by siblings Chelsea and Scott Sloan, the brand offers a fresh alternative to traditional thrift stores, focusing on trendy, name-brand, and designer apparel at up to 70% off retail prices.

Unlike cluttered secondhand shops, Uptown Cheapskate provides a boutique-like atmosphere, carefully selecting stylish, in-demand pieces. Customers can also sell their gently used clothing for cash or store credit, keeping inventory fresh and encouraging circular fashion.

With franchises expanding across the U.S., the brand is thriving in a market increasingly focused on eco-conscious shopping. By making high-quality fashion accessible while reducing textile waste, Uptown Cheapskate is proving that sustainable shopping can be both stylish and smart.
