This Week's Strategy Briefing
Good morning. Here is your weekly cross-category breakdown for the week ending Friday 29 May 2026. This week we tracked 3,540 listings and confirmed 1,164 sales, giving us an overall sell rate of 32.9% and an average sold price of £14.77. At first glance, the numbers look healthy. Look closer and a clear picture emerges: three very different categories are operating in three very different ways, and where you allocate your sourcing budget this coming week should reflect that.
Womenswear is the engine room. With 3,157 listings tracked, 1,102 sales confirmed, and a 34.9% sell rate, it is carrying the overall market. The average sold price of £10.68 is modest, but items are moving in an average of 10 days, which means capital turns over quickly. If you are reselling part-time and need reliable cash flow, womenswear is where your sourcing hours should go.
Menswear is punching well above its weight. Only 192 listings tracked, but a 28.1% sell rate and an average sold price of £12.43. More importantly, the average days to sell is just 0.4, which is extraordinarily fast. Items are going almost as soon as they are listed. The category is undersupplied on Vinted UK right now, which means less competition from other resellers. If you can source quality menswear, you will move it quickly and at decent margins. This is the category that deserves more attention than most resellers are giving it.
Designer is a different conversation entirely. A 4.2% sell rate sounds alarming, but the average sold price is £571.50. When Dior is selling at an average of £975 and YSL at £500, the maths still works, provided you are sourcing at the right prices. The challenge is that Balenciaga, Gucci, Christian Louboutin, and Moncler posted zero sales this week. Designer is a category for specialists who know exactly what they are buying. Casual dips into designer will hurt your cash flow.
The cross-category pattern that stands out most clearly this week is activewear. Lululemon is selling at a 66.7% sell rate in womenswear with an average price of £26.13. Sweaty Betty is at 55.6% with an average of £23.60. AYBL is at 66.7%. In menswear, Nike is moving at £19.00 average and Ralph Lauren at £12.33. Summer is arriving, and buyers across both categories are actively looking for gym and outdoor kit. This is the moment to be in charity shops picking up Lululemon, Sweaty Betty, AYBL, and Nike. These items will be in peak demand as the school summer holidays approach in July.
Another cross-category pattern worth noting is the strength of smart-casual and occasion wear. Never Fully Dressed is at 50.0% sell rate in womenswear, and Hobbs is at 42.9%. June brings weddings, graduation ceremonies, garden parties, and Ascot. Buyers are planning their outfits now. Occasion-ready womenswear in sizes 10 to 16 is the sourcing sweet spot for the next few weeks.
For womenswear, your priority sourcing list should be: Lululemon, Sweaty Betty, AYBL, and Adanola for activewear. Never Fully Dressed, Hobbs, and Jaded London for occasions and smart-casual. Lucy & Yak and Boden for everyday summer pieces. Gymshark is selling at a 72.7% rate from a small sample, so worth picking up whenever you see it priced well.
For menswear, focus on Ralph Lauren and Nike. Ralph Lauren is selling at 60.0% in just under half a day. If you are at a car boot or charity shop and you see a Ralph Lauren polo or shirt at £2 to £4, buy it. Nike technical and training pieces are moving at £19 average. This is an unusually strong average for menswear on Vinted. The undersupply in this category right now is a genuine opportunity.
For designer, the data tells you to focus on Dior and YSL if you are going to play this category. Louis Vuitton is selling at only 5.4% sell rate despite a £875 average, which suggests pricing or authentication concerns are slowing buyers down. Chanel at 7.1% is similarly slow. Dior is the clearest performer. If you have a route to authenticated Dior pieces, the margin potential is significant. If you do not have that route, leave designer alone this week and put those sourcing hours into menswear.
Sourcing priority summary for the coming week: Womenswear is your volume play, menswear is your speed play, and designer is your specialist play. All three can work simultaneously if you have the budget, but if you are choosing, menswear's 0.4-day average selling time and low competition make it the most compelling opportunity right now alongside the reliable womenswear engine.

Category of the Week
Womenswear delivered the strongest performance across all three categories this week, with a 34.9% sell rate across 3,157 tracked listings. The key driver is a combination of two things happening at once: summer occasion demand and a sustained activewear surge. These two themes are pulling buyers in from different directions, which is broadening the range of items that sell reliably and reducing the risk of sourcing incorrectly.
Five brands stood out. Lululemon led on sell rate at 66.7% with an average sold price of £26.13, selling in just 2 days. That is fast for womenswear, which averages 10 days overall. Sweaty Betty followed at 55.6% and £23.60 average. Never Fully Dressed hit a 50.0% sell rate at £38.00 average, driven by the run of summer events between now and late July. Hobbs posted 42.9% at £71.67, which is the highest average sold price in the womenswear category and suggests buyers are willing to spend more on quality occasion wear. Lucy & Yak at 42.9% and £35.67 confirms the appetite for colourful, distinctive summer pieces.
For sourcing this week, the clearest opportunity is Lululemon and Sweaty Betty in good condition, sizes 8 to 14. These appear regularly in charity shops and go quickly enough that you will recoup your outlay within a fortnight. Never Fully Dressed and Hobbs are worth hunting specifically for occasion pieces, particularly dresses and co-ords. Adanola deserves a special mention: 85.7% sell rate from six confirmed sales this week. The average price is only £10, but at that sell rate you are not sitting on stock. If you spot Adanola sets or shorts at car boots or charity shops for £1 to £2, buy every piece in good condition.

Hidden Gems
Adanola ·
85.7% sell rate
Six out of seven items sold this week at an 85.7% sell rate and £10.00 average. These are one of the best-performing activewear items in the entire dataset. Source any Adanola shorts or sets at car boots and charity shops priced under £3 and list immediately.
Target: £2 · Avg sold: £10.0
Gymshark ·
72.7% sell rate
Eight out of eleven sold this week at 72.7%, confirming Gymshark as a reliable activewear flip with minimal sitting time. Average sold price of £7.97 is modest, but at charity shop sourcing prices of £1 to £2 the margin holds up well. Condition is critical here, so avoid any pilling.
Target: £2 · Avg sold: £7.97
Ralph Lauren ·
60.0% sell rate
Three out of five sold at 60.0% in menswear, with an average price of £12.33. Ralph Lauren polos are sourcing staples for a reason: they are plentiful in charity shops, easy to photograph, and buyers know exactly what they are getting. Size L and XL move fastest in summer.
Target: £2 · Avg sold: £12.33
Nike ·
36.4% sell rate
Four out of eleven sold at 36.4% with an average of £19.00, which is a strong price point for men's Nike on Vinted. Technical and training pieces outperform basic swoosh tees here. Source in sizes M and L and price between £14 and £22 depending on condition.
Target: £4 · Avg sold: £19.0

Womenswear is pulling the overall market forward with the strongest sell rate and reliable volume, while menswear is quietly outperforming on speed with items selling in under a day on average. Designer continues to require specialist knowledge to navigate, with only Dior and YSL generating meaningful returns, and several high-profile brands posting zero sales this week. The activewear trend is the most consistent cross-category signal in the data right now, holding strong in both womenswear and menswear as summer demand builds.
Seasonal Early Warning
The period from late June through to late July is one of the busiest on Vinted UK for both occasion wear and activewear, driven by weddings, graduation ceremonies, school sports days, and the start of the summer holidays. Resellers who source across womenswear and menswear in the coming weeks will be well positioned as buyer demand hits its seasonal peak. Designer pieces, if sourced at the right price, also benefit from the summer gifting period around Father's Day in mid-June.
