About
SidelineSwap is the P2P marketplace where everyday athletes and fans connect to buy, sell and trade athletic gear and apparel. The American sporting goods market is north of $60b/yr; globally, it’s around $300b. Viewed alongside the larger market for sports content and culture, you have an industry that rivals women’s fashion - with a fraction of the entrepreneurial attention. We aim to change that, by providing a social marketplace that unifies the fragmented secondhand market (visible everywhere from Facebook groups, to eBay, to sneaker conventions and offline exchanges) and gives users a real voice. Apparel and gear is the glue that binds the athlete-fan identity. Until now, it hasn’t had a true home. Our product is live and supports the entire transaction cycle, including discovery, communication, negotiation, transaction, security, payment, shipping and user feedback.
