Sustainability with Style
Our team at Michael's Consignment is committed to fulfilling our role by serving those who are interested in making more informed, eco-friendly fashion choices.
By being a Michael’s customer, you are already embracing the circular economy movement. Purchasing second-hand or pre-owned clothing extends the lifespan of garments. This reduces the demand for new production, conserving resources and energy that would be used in the manufacturing process. You’re also buying high-end quality products that are designed to last longer. Investing in durable and well-made items means they are less likely to wear out quickly, reducing the frequency of replacements. Consigning your preowned pieces with Michael’s also contributes to the circular economy by limiting textile waste and keeping clothing out of landfills.

Americans throw away a total of 17 million tons of textiles each year.That is around 112lb per person, according to the latest census statistics.
Textile production generates 42 million tons of plastic waste per year, making the textile industry the second-highest industrial sector after packaging.
Fast fashion brands are producing twice the amount of clothes today than in 2000 to fill the demand for cheap clothing.
Women wear a garment an average of 7 times before throwing it away.
Clothing and textiles currently make up at least 7% of the total amount of waste in global landfill space.
