Secondhand brand guide
Secondhand Arket
Arket is another H&M Group brand, sitting alongside COS but with a warmer, more functional Scandinavian sensibility. It focuses on durable everyday wardrobe staples and publishes detailed material information, so quality is consistent.
Why buy Arket secondhand
Arket designs for longevity and repair, so pieces wear in rather than out. The understated aesthetic barely dates, meaning a coat or jumper from three seasons ago is indistinguishable from this year's.
What to look for
- Merino and lambswool knits are excellent — check for moth holes and pilling.
- Sizing is fairly true but relaxed; check measurements on tailored items.
- Arket's heavier cotton and wool outerwear holds up best secondhand.
- Confirm the composition tag — Arket favours pure wool, cotton and Tencel.
Best known for
Merino knitwear, overshirts, kidswear, functional outerwear.
Secondhand price guide
Typically £18–55 secondhand against £45–145 retail. Wool overshirts and coats command more.
