Wear One, Share One

Our Wear One, Share One giving model is at the heart of everything we do at OutsideIn. For every item purchased, we donate essential clothing to someone experiencing homelessness. Through our network of incredible giving partners, charities across the UK and EU, your purchase delivers brand-new, high-quality essentials to those who need them most.


One product purchased = one person helped.

THE PROCESS

Wear One, Share One 

in Four Steps:

Purchase

Every purchase at OutsideIn activates our Wear One, Share One, meaning with every product purchased you donate essential clothing to someone experiencing homelessness.

Allocate

Once your purchase is complete, our team allocates a donation on your behalf across our trusted network of Giving Partners, based on their individual needs, to ensure maximum impact.

Distribute

Our Giving Partners deliver your donation directly to those who need it most. Each item is thoughtfully designed using charity feedback and provided based on real requests from service user

Impact

You play a vital role in everything we do, we simply couldn’t do it without you. Every purchase helps us bring dignity to people experiencing homelessness through brand-new, essential clothing. Thank you for making this impact possible.

Get To Know Our Giving Items

Thermal Beanie

Our Thermal Beanies are a favourite among our Giving Partners as they provide crucial protection in the colder months, keeping heads warm even in the winter.

T-Shirts

T-Shirts provide an extra layer of comfort and protection, especially in summer. Our Giving Partners help us choose the best style, fit and colours that make their service-users feel best.

Thermal Socks

Socks are the most frequently requested items among our Giving Partners. Based on their feedback, we are told that many of their service-users only own one pair. We ensure our Socks are absorbent, comfortable and durable.

Underwear

Underwear is one of the most highly requested items but is often forgotten as it cannot be donated second-hand. Our Underwear is unisex, durable and comfortable and we offer two kinds: boxers and briefs.

Our Giving Products Are Always:

High-Quality

Just like the products you buy for yourself, the items you donate with your purchase are always manufactured to the same high-quality standard right down to every last detail.

Brand-New

In the same way you wouldn't want to buy worn-out, old or damaged clothing, we ensure that every item donated with your purchase is brand-new, packaged and in perfect condition!

Intentionally Designed

We take time to intentionally design both the clothing you find on our online store, as well as each Giving Item from scratch. This ensures they meet the needs and desires of the those who receive them.

Dignity in the Details

We call the essential items you donate following your purchase 'Giving Items'.

Our in-house Fashion Team designs our unique Giving Items following feedback from our network of Giving Partners to ensure that each item meets the greatest clothing needs of those who receive them.

Our Giving Items are always brand-new and manufactured to the same high-quality standards as the OutsideIn products you would buy for yourself. Each Giving Item also comes with a positive message designed to encourage whoever receives it. We consider everything, including the fit, fabric, colour, and seasonal needs when designing these items, ensuring they provide dignity, comfort, and confidence for the person wearing it.

Just like the clothes you buy evolve and improve, we review our Giving Items regularly to ensure that they are always meeting the greatest needs and requests of the people they were created to help.

That's Not All!

We want our Giving Items to be more than just, well, items.

So, we decided to add something we call 'Tags of Hope'!

These aren't just any old tags, but each one has a written encouragement designed to show the people who receive our Giving Items that they matter, we see them and we believe in them.

We know that words are powerful and we intend to use ours for good.

Our Impact Dictionary

For every item you purchase, we will donate an additional item on your behalf to someone experiencing homelessness.

These are the charities and organisations we partner with to distribute the items that you donate through your purchases. We work with Giving Partners around the world, ensuring that your support has a global impact.

These are the items that are donated on behalf of each item you purchase. The Giving Item(s) your purchase will donate can be found in the product description of each product.
Instead of labelling someone as 'homeless', we say that they are experiencing homelessness. We don't define people by their situation.
Social impact can take on many different forms. For us, our social impact is focused on helping people experiencing homelessness.
