Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.
What holds its value across New Look
- Wide-fit footwear, which is a real and under-served search and the brand’s most distinctive resale category
- Tall and petite range pieces, which are cut differently from the main range and are hard for those buyers to find
- Unworn stock with tags, which is common given the volume the brand sells online
- Occasion dresses in season, which is when the searches for them actually take place
What pulls New Look resale value down
- Everyday jersey and basics, which sit against a low new price and rarely justify their own listing
- Faux-leather footwear with creased and cracked uppers, which is the commonest failure in this price bracket
- Worn heel tips and scuffed soles, which decide the price of any used shoe and are always asked about
- Faded blacks on cotton and viscose, which happens quickly and is obvious beside anything newer
Identifying and dating yours
- State the fit explicitly — wide, standard, tall or petite — because that is the search term for this brand’s strongest categories
- Photograph the sole and heel tip of any footwear, which is the fact a buyer needs and sellers routinely omit
- Give the flat measurements alongside the label size, since the ranges are cut differently from one another
What lifts any winter coat, whatever the label
Winter coats are strongly seasonal, and the same coat can be worth noticeably more in October than in April.
- Down and technical fills from recognised outdoor makers
- Working zips, storm flaps and drawcords
- Fur or faux-fur trims still attached and intact
- Listing in autumn, when demand peaks
And what pulls one down
- Down that has clumped or migrated out of the baffles
- Broken main zips, which are expensive to replace
- Stained cuffs and collars
- Listing in late spring, when demand falls away
Working out what yours is worth
- Work the main zip and every pocket zip
- Hold the coat up and check the fill is evenly distributed
- Check cuffs and collar in daylight for marks
What to state in the listing
- The outer composition, especially the wool or down percentage
- Whether the hood detaches, and whether any fur trim is real or faux
- Pit-to-pit and full length from shoulder to hem
- Whether it is waterproof, showerproof or neither
Lead with warmth and material, because that is the search: “Wool Blend Winter Coat, Camel, Size 14” or “Padded Parka with Faux Fur Hood, Black, Mens L”. Adding the season it suits — a mild autumn coat versus a genuine cold-weather parka — filters out the wrong buyers before they message you.
Preparing and photographing it
- Check the care label: if it is dry-clean only and visibly grubby, get it cleaned. A clean winter coat sells for noticeably more.
- Test the main zip along its whole length, and check for missing toggles, buttons or a detachable hood.
- Look at the cuffs and collar edge, which is where wool pills and where padding wears through first.
- Full length on a hanger, front, with the coat done up
- The inner label showing composition and care instructions
- The hood and collar, including whether the hood detaches and whether the fur is real or synthetic
- Cuffs and hem, plus any pilling, staining or thinning
When it sells best, and handing it over
A short, sharp season. Listings from late September to December sell fastest and hold price; the same coat in March sells for noticeably less. If you have missed the window, storing it until autumn genuinely pays.
Bulky and heavy, so postage is expensive — vacuum bags reduce the parcel considerably. Collection suits these well, and lets the buyer check the fit over a jumper, which is how they will actually wear it.
What buyers ask
What sells best from New Look second hand?
Wide-fit shoes, and pieces from the tall and petite ranges. Those are genuinely hard to find and buyers search for them specifically.
Should I mention that shoes are wide fit?
Always, in the title. It is the single most useful word you can put in a listing for this brand’s footwear.
How much is a New Look winter coat worth?
Roughly £16 to £78 depending on condition, against £25 to £120 for winter coats generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
What the fees would take elsewhere
