What sells here
India’s second-hand market runs heavily through direct conversation — buyers expect to message, negotiate and ask questions before committing, and a listing that answers those questions up front sells noticeably faster than one that does not.
Outerwear, denim, tailoring and workwear. Men’s second-hand tends to sell on brand and durability rather than on trend.
Typical INR price range
Guide range for used men’s clothing on WishThrift: £4 to £150 (approximately $5 to $200), depending on condition, brand and completeness. Brand and construction. A well-made jacket from a known maker holds value for years; fast fashion in the same category does not.
Sterling guide ranges with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026); WishThrift lists in INR here and sellers set their own price.
What listings are live in India
Nobody has listed men’s clothing in India yet. That is worth knowing rather than glossing over — it also means the next person to list one has no competition. See men’s clothing listed everywhere, or everything currently live in India.
How buying and handover works
UPI has largely replaced cash for in-person handovers and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. Cash on delivery is still widely expected for anything posted, and it is worth deciding your position on it before you list.
India Post, Delhivery and DTDC all offer nationwide coverage, and courier cost varies sharply between metros and smaller towns.
Two practical things shape a sale here. Courier serviceability varies by PIN code rather than by city, so check the buyer’s code before promising delivery. And packaging matters more than most sellers expect on long domestic routes — a poorly wrapped parcel arriving damaged is the commonest cause of a dispute.
Condition is seller-described against five grades and nobody inspects it for you — what each means. Chest and waist measurements taken flat, plus the state of collars, cuffs and knees.
What people list in this category, and what it fetches
The men’s clothing that come up most often, with the guide range each one sits in:
| Item | Typical range |
|---|---|
| Suit | £30–£150 (~$40–$200) |
| Trench Coat | £25–£110 (~$33–$147) |
| Bomber Jacket | £20–£90 (~$27–$120) |
| Workwear Jacket | £20–£90 (~$27–$120) |
| Blazer | £15–£70 (~$20–$93) |
| Loafers | £15–£70 (~$20–$93) |
| Cargo Pants | £12–£40 (~$16–$53) |
| Flannel Shirt | £8–£30 (~$11–$40) |
| Oxford Shoes | £18–£85 (~$24–$113) |
| Brogues | £15–£70 (~$20–$93) |
The commonest mistake sellers make here: Listing tailoring without the chest and sleeve measurements. Men’s sizing is even less consistent between makers than women’s.

Frequently asked questions
Is WishThrift free in India?
Yes. Free to list, no commission, and no buyer-protection fee on either side — you keep the full amount the buyer pays you.
How do I pay the seller?
UPI has largely replaced cash for in-person handovers and is instant and traceable, which suits a private sale well. Cash on delivery is still widely expected for anything posted, and it is worth deciding your position on it before you list. WishThrift does not process payments or hold funds, so the money goes directly between the two of you — agree the method in the messages before you meet.
Can I sell men’s clothing from anywhere in India?
Yes. You set your own location and whether you are offering collection, postage or both. India Post, Delhivery and DTDC all offer nationwide coverage, and courier cost varies sharply between metros and smaller towns.
