KING LOUIE RELOVE
Swap to Shop
Research has shown that a large part of our clothes hangs in the closet unworn. A waste of space in your closet, but also a waste of those unworn clothes!
In context of ReLove and sustainability we started organising swap events under the name 'Swap to Shop'. With Swap to Shop you can swap a King Louie item you no longer wear for another pre-loved item! Good for the environment and good for your wallet.

SWAP TO SHOP 2023
Swapping in 19 stores
Because of last year's succes, we asked more shops to participate this year. In 2023 Swap to Shop took place in 19 stores in the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany! Over 500 items were swapped, and the most frequently exchanged item was the dress.
Thanks everyone for contributing such beautiful items!
SWAP TO SHOP 2022
Swapping in stores
In 2022 the event took place from in 5 stores in the Netherlands. Very Cherry in Rotterdam, Kunst van het Kleden in Eindhoven, Transit in Utrecht, Het Duurzame Warenhuis in Nijmegen and of course our own King Louie Store in Amsterdam.
The turnout was higher than expected and a lot of items were swapped! That's what we call a success. Due to all the positive reactions from both retailers and customers, we want to organize the event again in 2023.
SWAP TO SHOP 2021
The King Louie Swap Bag
Following the success of the Treasure Truck, we launched a new initiative on September 7, 2021. The King Louie Swap Bag. Here you could swap your own item for an item from the bag. We did this with both King Louie and vintage items. The swap bag was located in the King Louie Store in Amsterdam.
SWAP TO SHOP 2019
Swapping in the Treasure Truck
We organized our first Swap to Shop event in 2019. With our King Louie Treasure Truck full of clothes, we went to the Westergasterrein in Amsterdam. Visitors could trade their own items for a King Louie item.
After hundreds of items of clothing had been swapped, we made new sets with them and donated them to Dress for Success.
