Size Guide
Finding the right size is easier when you compare the information in each listing with an item you already own and that fits you well. Because every piece is unique, always check the product-specific details before ordering.
Start with the product listing: label sizes are a useful reference, but the measurements in centimetres for clothing and the photographed label details for sneakers are the most reliable guides.

Denim & clothing
Vintage and pre-owned sizing can vary between brands, models and production periods. Two garments marked with the same size may fit differently because of their cut, rise, fabric and stretch.
How to compare measurements
Lay a similar garment flat without stretching it and compare the same measurement points with those listed on the product page.
Jeans & trousers
- Waist: measured flat across the waistband. Double this measurement for an approximate full circumference.
- Front rise: measured from the crotch seam to the top of the waistband.
- Inseam: measured from the crotch seam to the bottom hem.
- Total length: measured from the top of the waistband to the bottom hem.
- Leg opening: measured flat across the bottom of the leg.
Jackets & tops
- Chest: measured flat from armpit to armpit.
- Shoulders: measured across the back from shoulder seam to shoulder seam.
- Sleeve length: measured from the shoulder seam to the end of the cuff.
- Waist: measured flat across the garment.
- Total length: measured from the highest shoulder point to the bottom hem.
All clothing measurements are provided in centimetres and taken by hand. Small differences may occur depending on the fabric and construction of the item.

Men’s waist guide
For men’s jeans, the W number usually refers to the waist size in inches, but the fit can still vary by brand and model. Compare the waist measurement in centimetres with a similar pair you already wear.
Fit notes
- Skinny: close fit from thigh to ankle.
- Slim: narrow fit but less tight than skinny.
- Straight: straight leg from thigh to hem.
- Bootcut / Flare: wider opening at the bottom.
- Low rise: sits lower on the waist.
- Mid rise: sits around the natural waist area.
- High rise: sits higher on the waist.
Nike & Jordan sneaker sizing
Our sneaker selection focuses on pre-owned Nike and Jordan pairs. Each listing includes the size information shown on the shoe label whenever it is available.
- Start with the EU size. Use the EU size shown in the title and product details as your primary reference.
- Check every label size. Compare the EU, US, UK and CM values in the listing with the photographed size label.
- Compare with a pair you own. If possible, compare the label’s CM value with a Nike or Jordan pair that already fits you well. The CM value is label sizing, not an external outsole measurement.
- Review the condition. Check all product photos carefully, including the soles, heels, toe boxes and labels.
GS, kids’, women’s and men’s pairs can use different US sizing formats. For that reason, rely on the complete label information in the individual listing rather than a generic conversion alone.
