A LITTLE INTRODUCTION TO ME...

Hey thrift queens, it's Michelle!

I started Thrift Mint after experiencing ever-increasing frustration with the lack of sustainable and affordable fashion pieces in Hong Kong. Thrift Mint was born in 2021 with the purpose to breathe new style into our dusty closets. While it may be difficult to keep up with micro-trends, I know from experience a simple bag or accessory can completely elevate a boring look.

I eventually realised that many old bags just needed a bit of restoration and love. Unfortunately, local bag spas are hard to find, and even harder to trust. After a few years of trial and error, getting my own bags repainted in some hideously off shade of yellow-green instead of the canary yellow I intended, I decided to take things into my own hands. As a bag lover, I understood what the market needed; a light touch, a patient eye, and a restoration so natural it would never be noticeable. That's why many bags on the site are personally restored by me!

I ship locally and internationally. All the bags are thoroughly inspected for authenticity and come with lifetime guarantee!

erase stigma

Stigmas against secondhand items stem from the traditional belief that pre-worn items are unhygienic, or carry unlucky . On the other hand, shiny new things are meant to express wealth and luxury, driving mass-consumerism. In Thrift Mint, we believe that all worn things reflect the care and love of their previous owners. Care in their maintenance, and love in their wear. 

authenticity

To show you the sincerity in our authenticity promise, we also provide all customers with 100% money back protection against counterfeit goods.

On very rare occasions, human errors may occur and items may slip through our rigorous inspections. If the product proves to be something than advertised, contact us and we will refund you the full amount.

Intention & CARE

At Thrift Mint, we curate styles for intentional consumption. We curate our inventory very carefully, looking for individuality within trends, to help everyone find their style amongst the abundance of fashion content.

Likewise, as a small, woman-run business, we deliver customised service to every customer, making sure everyone feels that their purchases matter.
