Here’s a handy list of every secondhand shop and clothes swap in Cork City
Cork has a seriously good secondhand scene.
Whether you’re after a vintage gem, a budget-friendly staple, or just love the thrill of finding something one-of-a-kind, swapping and thrifting not only keeps clothes in circulation, it’s also way more fun than buying new.
To save you the legwork, content creator Evin O’Keeffe of BrunchCork has compiled a handy list of every secondhand shop and clothes swap you can check out right here in Cork City.
“This updated version includes Cork’s growing scene of swap events, so you can trade not buy and give your clothes a second (or third) life.” explains Evin.

“Brick and mortar secondhand clothing shops are numbered while pop-up swaps are lettered. I separated the list out by area of the city (North Main Street, English Market, Parnell, and VQ).”
There’s even an efficient route to help you reach all the shops in one outing.
“We can’t all make the perfect choices every single time — but we can start by swapping, sharing, and saving stuff from landfill. This map is full of ways to do that — whether you’re new to secondhand or already a pro thrifter.” added Evin.
We’ve got it bookmarked for our next thrifting jaunt.
