There is a massive reuse culture out there. It's just not been industrialized by a handful of companies or chased after by VCs. For clothes there are garage sales, second hand shops, and donations to those who are less fortunate (e.g., to the growing size of the group at or below the poverty line).
Part of the problem is the number of clothes that don't last long. They are expensive and wear out quickly.
Another part of it is culture. How many people can pull off wearing clothes from 10 or 20 years ago without being judged for doing so.
This is a larger problem than sharing and availability. It's cultural.
