Walmart is teaming up with resale platform ThredUp to offer preowned clothing, accessories, footwear and handbags on its website, as research shows growing interest in secondhand clothes among multiple generations of consumers.

From a new page on Walmart.com, shoppers can find 750,000 secondhand items from brands like Calvin Klein, Nike, Coach and Michael Kors.

In addition, customers will receive free shipping on orders of $35 or more, and free returns at Walmart stores or ThredUp. These services are also new benefits to ThredUp customers, noted Denise Incandela, head of fashion at Walmart U.S.
