Size & Condition Guide
Two things decide whether a pair is right for you: the size stamped on the label and how honestly the wear is described. Here's exactly how we handle both.
Condition grading scale
Every preowned pair is graded by hand against this scale, with photos of any flaw. When a pair falls between two grades, we list it at the lower grade.
Deadstock (DS)
10/10Brand new, never worn.Factory fresh with original box and all accessories. No creasing, no sole wear, no yellowing. Sold as New on our site.
Excellent
9/10Worn 1–3 times. Looks near new.No visible creasing beyond a faint toe line, outsole tread fully intact with only light dust, midsole clean and white/original color, no scuffs larger than a fingernail, insoles firm with logo intact, original laces.
Very Good
8/10Light, honest wear.Visible but light toe creasing, minor outsole tread wear at the heel or forefoot, midsole may have small scuffs or the very start of yellowing, upper clean after a light cleaning, insoles broken in but not flattened.
Good
6–7/10Clearly worn, plenty of life left.Moderate creasing, noticeable outsole wear (tread still readable), midsole scuffs and/or yellowing, possible small paint nicks or heel-drag marks, insoles worn with faded logos. Structurally solid — nothing separating, cracking, or torn.
Sizing & conversions
All sizes on our listings are US sizes as printed on the shoe's size tag. Men's, Women's, and Youth (Grade School) are labeled on each listing.

Youth / Grade School (GS)
Youth pairs are sized in GS (3.5Y–7Y). A GS size runs roughly 1.5 sizes larger than the equivalent men's size — e.g. 7Y ≈ men's 7 / women's 8.5. Youth pairs use slightly softer cushioning than adult models.
Fit tips
- Measure your foot in cm at the end of the day and match the CM column.
- Retro high-tops and basketball silhouettes typically fit true to size.
- Knit runners and slip-ons often run a half size small.
- Wide feet: go up a half size on leather uppers.
