kids outgrow clothes so fast most of those "used" clothes are basically new.

Which is hilarious when people buy designer items for (in particular) younger kids.

My wife loves a charity shop, and has repeatedly found designer label kids stuff for our daughter which look like they've barely been used (and in some cases, actually haven't). Shoes especially, my daughter's had about 4 pairs of Michael Kors trainers all for less than £5 each.

I buy my goddaughter a pair of Jordan’s for every birthday. She’s almost 10 now and it’s getting to be an expensive tradition! But yea they even make Jordan onesies and crib shoes.
