April 24, 2025 · Notorious Lifestyle

Notorious Lifestyle in Aurora is the largest consignment shop in Colorado for sneakers and streetwear. We’re all about keeping the heat flowing, which means we’re always buying fresh drops, rare kicks, and clean, mildly used pieces that still have life left in them.

If you're trying to make room in your closet or flip a few grails, this quick FAQ covers everything you need to know before pulling up.

What is a consignment?

Consignment is when you bring your sneakers or streetwear to Notorious Lifestyle, and we sell it for you. Instead of buying your items upfront, we display them in our. Once they sell, you get paid. It’s a solid way to make cash off kicks or clothing you’re no longer rocking, without having to deal with online reselling drama or random buyers ghosting you. We handle the store vibes, pricing, and customer interest so you don’t have to worry about all of that.

Can I sell my used sneakers or clothes?

Yes. We take used gear all the time as long as it’s clean, wearable and actually something people want to cop. If it’s beat, stained, or smelling like regret… probably not.

What kind of stuff do you accept as consignment?

We love Men’s sneakers and Women’s clothing, especially the hyped, the rare, and the hard-to-find. Think Nike Dunks, Yeezys, LeBron James shoes, retro Jordans, or any athletic wear and outdoor clothing with resale value. We also have an extensive Vintage collection so bring in your rare threads.

What makes something “consignment” material?

Think of it like this: if you saw it in a boutique clothing shop, would you still buy it? If the answer’s yes, then you’re probably good. For sneakers: minimal¢ heel drag, clean soles, no major creasing, OG insoles and laces are a plus. For apparel: no holes, no pit stains, no rips, tags still intact.

Why is consignment the best at Notorious Lifestyle?

At Notorious Lifestyle, we’re not just flipping random used gear, we’re curating straight-up heat. We know our stuff and that’s why our shop in one of the most respected clothing stores in Aurora. Our boutique is clean, organized and full of grails you won’t see sitting around in your average clothing stores.

That’s why people don’t just pull up from Aurora. We’ve got regulars coming in Denver and other cities in Colorado, sometimes from out of state, just to see what dropped, what got traded in, and what kind of steals they can find.

Selling with us is super easy and safer than going through apps and shady buyers. Just bring your clean pieces into the store. If something is wearable and in demand, we’ll price it up and give it a new life on our shelves. Once it sells, you get paid.

Which brands can I leave with you as a consignment?

We stay on top of what’s hot and what actually sells. Clean Jordans, Nike Air Max, Adidas lifestyle heat (especially Gazelle and Campus), and anything Yeezy always gets our attention. For apparel, we’re all about independent streetwear brands, limited drops, streetwear collabs, and anything that looks sick on a fit pic.

What makes good vintage clothing?

Good vintage streetwear has a perfect mix of nostalgia and quality. We’re talking bold graphics, iconic logos, rare tags, and cuts that still feel fresh. Think early 2000s Nike, faded Carhartt jackets, OG Supreme tees, or a Champion hoodie that’s been broken in just right. Bonus points if they’ve aged well. No stretched collars, no wild stains, just that soft, worn-in feel that you can’t fake.

How should I get my items ready to be sold as a consignment?

We're stating the obvious, but make sure they're clean. Wipe down sneakers, relace them, and bring the box if you’ve still got it. Wash the clothes, and fold them nicely. Chances are we might display them differently, but present them in a way that will make them look they're best. If we're impressed, so will our customers be.  

How does the payment work?

When you sell on consignment with Notorious Lifestyle, it’s pretty straightforward. Just bring your items into the shop, we'll check out their condition and if we decide to accept them we'll give you a reference receipt that includes details like the sneaker model, size and the sale price.

Your items will stay in-store until they sell. Once they do, we pay you out. You can choose to be paid in cash, cheque or through PayPal. Some of our sellers go for a mix of those.

We always aim to make the process smooth and transparent, whether you’re selling five pairs or fifty.

How do you decide on the price?

We go off condition, hype, how fast we think it’ll move, and what it’s currently reselling for. We keep it fair for you and still make the shop work.
