SidelineSwap

A social marketplace for sporting goods

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.
