Our Story

Every journey has a beginning. Ours started with a belief: that fashion can be a tool for change. Founded by the Singletary family, we saw how excess fashion led to waste. We wanted to do something about it—something big. We want you to fashionably embrace your individuality while supporting a cause bigger than yourself. Our story unfolds with every garment donned by someone who loves it, a piece rescued from neglect, and the faith that every choice we make can serve a purpose.

Why Second-Hand Fashion?

Did you know the fashion industry is one of the most polluting industries in the world? That’s right! According to the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, the equivalent of a garbage truck full of textiles is landfilled or burned every second! By choosing second-hand fashion, you’re not just making a stylish choice; you’re contributing to a more sustainable planet. Each thrifted piece not only tells a story but plays a key role in reducing waste and promoting responsible consumerism.

The Benefits of Vintage

Vintage clothing comes packed with history and character. Each item is unique, ensuring that your look won't be just another copycat. Additionally, vintage clothing is often made to last. With quality craftsmanship and timeless designs, these pieces stand the test of time—just like ethos of Singletary’s!

The Faith Factor

At Singletary's Second Chances, our mission goes beyond aesthetics and sustainability. We’re driven by faith—a force that inspires us to uplift our community and support those in need. Each purchase you make aids in funding local organizations that provide meals, clothing, and education to individuals facing life struggles. We’re all about giving people “second chances.” Just like the clothing we carry, every person deserves a new opportunity and a chance to shine!

Sustainable Style: A Win-Win

Sustainability and style? You bet! When you shop with us, you’re not just avoiding fast fashion; you’re participating in a movement towards conscious consumerism. Key benefits of sustainable fashion include not only environmental preservation but also the promotion of ethical labor practices. By supporting second-hand shops like ours, you’re pushing the wheel of positive change in every corner of the industry.

Impacting Lives Together

Your fashion choices have the power to create ripples of change. When you walk out wearing a Singletary piece, you’re not just wearing a great outfit; you're acting as a beacon of hope and support for those in difficult situations, reinforcing the fabric of our community with threads of compassion.
