Parachute Brooklyn is Greenpoint's beloved kids' consignment shop, founded in 2019 by Carly Boonparn and Ambra Markos — longtime Greenpoint residents with deep roots in fashion retail. The shop operates on a buy-sell-trade model: parents can walk in with outgrown clothing and receive 25% of the resale value in cash or 50% in store trade credit, with no appointment needed during buying hours (10 AM–5 PM daily).
The store carries a well-curated mix of modern and vintage kids' clothing for ages 0–12, including baby, toddler, and children's sizes, along with new accessories and gift items. Bargain bins offer items starting at $2–$6, making it easy to refresh a wardrobe sustainably and affordably. An online store is also available at parachutebrooklyn.com.
Parachute Brooklyn is committed to sustainability and community: donation drop-offs are accepted (including stained or damaged pieces), and charity partners include The Brooklyn Hospital Center WIC Program, North Brooklyn Angels, and St. Thomas Closet. The shop has been featured in The New York Times and New York Family.
