Shoppers looking for sustainable clothing options can head to Lock29 in Banbury next Sunday, 26 April 2026, for a vintage clothing sale. The event, hosted by Swipe Vintage, will run from 10:30 AM to 4:30 PM, offering a wide range of second-hand items priced by weight.
Clothing at the sale is priced at £20 per kilo, with costs calculated in 0.05kg increments. This means shoppers can purchase items for as little as £1 per 0.05kg. To keep costs fair, specific heavy items like leather jackets and coats are capped at £20, while shoes are priced at £5 per pair. The available stock spans fashions from the 1960s through to the 2000s, including well-known brands such as Adidas, Nike, The North Face, Levi’s, and Tommy Hilfiger.
The event takes place within Castle Quay Shopping Centre. The shopping centre is currently undergoing significant changes, including the relocation of the Cherwell District Council headquarters, plans for a new library, and the introduction of the FunParx indoor adventure park later in 2026.
While entry to the vintage sale is free, organisers encourage attendees to book tickets in advance through the event website. This helps the team prepare for the expected turnout and ensure the day runs smoothly. The sale is part of a broader trend in the UK, where interest in secondhand clothing is growing as people seek more affordable and environmentally conscious alternatives to fast fashion.
