IT'S SIMPLE...

Buffalo Exchange will buy quality items that can be resold, making our selection eclectic and fun. Our ever-changing inventory includes designer wear, vintage, jeans, leather, great basics, and irresistible one-of-a-kind items. You'll also find new merchandise and accessories to choose from. We offer great fashion finds at low prices at Buffalo Exchange...where recycling is always in style.
 
 

HELPING OUR ENVIRONMENT

reduce reuse recycleWe are a sustainable company that works to protect the environment by reusing and recycling clothing. The E.P.A. estimates 11.9 million tons of textiles were generated in 2007, or 4.7% of total U.S. municipal solid waste. Almost half of the 2.5 billion pounds of postconsumer textile waste prevented from entering the solid waste stream is recycled as secondhand clothing, according to the Council for Textile Recycling. So trading used clothing has a positive environmental impact. Buffalo Exchange donates to local nonprofit agencies in the community through its Tokens for Bags® program, which has generated nearly $320,000 for hundreds of nonprofits since 1994, saving 6.4 million bags. Shoppers are encouraged to accept a token instead of a bag for purchases, and Buffalo Exchange donates five cents to a charity of the customer's choice.

Buffalo Exchange raised over $25,000 to Save the Whales at our Earth Day Dollar Sale in April 2009. All proceeds went to the Save Whales-Not Whaling program of The Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and Humane Society International. Buffalo Exchange has raised a total of over $274,000 for environmental causes through Dollar Day Sales on Earth Day since 1997. We also donated 913 used furs to The HSUS' Coats for Cubs program, providing bedding and comfort to orphaned and injured wildlife. Since 2006, Buffalo Exchange has collected a total of 3,885 used furs on behalf of Coats for Cubs. You can still donate used furs by mailing them directly to Coats for Cubs, The Humane Society of the United States, 2100 L St., N.W., Washington, D.C. 20037. Fur from dogs and raccoon dogs are unlabeled and sold as "faux fur." The HSUS and Buffalo Exchange, an official endorser, ask you to voice support for the Truth in Fur Labeling Act S.3610, introduced in the Senate on Sep 29, 2008, and the Dog and Cat Fur Prohibition Enforcement Act H.R.891, which would require all fur to be labeled, regardless of value, and would prevent unwitting purchases of raccoon dog fur and other fur.
