The reason that the clothes even exist is someone made a mock-up while they were designing the Justice system and the itemization team made so many cool pieces of clothing, and they were so popular, that they decided to keep them in as loot. It wasn't planned.
And it shows the talent of the creators of this game when the middle management isn't messing things up.
First time I found one I linked it in zone chat. Got 500g in 10 seconds, no joke.Oh GOD! I was throwing this stuff on trash. Didint knew people would buy them!
Boots and pants are pretty common to find, can't get more than 100 for them. But I had someone offer me 10,000 on the spot for a sleeveless wrap shirt.Oh GOD! I was throwing this stuff on trash. Didint knew people would buy them!

It was my plan to have one of my mules as kind of a merchant for stolen clothes. I had about 130 items already (27 different types). Unfortunately, there is no real market for these items on the EU server in zone chat. Most people want to know what the clothes look like on their character before they buy them and aren't willing to spent even a few hundred gold for individual items (always keep in mind that VR 14 chars can easily make 300 gold per minute just playing the game). It was hard enough for me to find a few people who would take the clothes for free (I only kept 2 of each type and gave all others away to people who replied in guild and zone chat)!
If it were possible to sell these clothes via guild store I'm pretty sure you could easily find all of them in guild stores and the people who took the time to search for them could still earn some gold (prices would very likely be very low though, maybe 100-1500 gold depending on rarity; chest pieces are rarer because there's more types than for feet, hand, and legs).
So, in my opinion, that would be the better solution. Give those stolen clothes an item category and allow players to sell them in the guild stores. There were several threads asking for that change/reporting the problem that you can't sell them in guild stores already:
For example these three:
