Lucy & Yak to open first outlet store
Lucy & Yak, the socially and environmentally conscious clothing brand, has selected Junction 32 near Castleford in Yorkshire as the location for its first outlet store.
The brand will be launching a 1,545 square foot shop on 6 September from where it will sell imperfect clothing items that are still wearable, as well as a range of discounted one-off samples.
The news follows successful launches of new Lucy & Yak stores in Bristol, Norwich, Nottingham, Cambridge, Manchester, Cardiff, and Exeter, which the brand said have proved to be just as popular as its flagship store in North Laine, Brighton and sustainability flagship in The Lanes, Brighton.
Each shop features a Re:Yak PreLoved hub where customers can take any Lucy & Yak items for recirculating and receive a money-off voucher towards their next purchase.
Lucy & Yak co-founder Lucy Greenwood said: “We’ve been on the hunt for the right location to permanently host our (Im)perfect Yaks, where customers can browse the pieces that may not be 100% perfect, but are still 100% wearable.
“It’s all part of our aim to keep clothing on people and out of landfill. With Barnsley as our true home, it only felt right to open a shop in Yorkshire- we can’t wait to hear what our customers think!”
