About us
Here at Gorilla vintage, we pride ourselves in supplying only the best vintage clothing to customers nationwide, both in terms of condition and quality. As we are a purely online service, we do our best to accurately describe our products in terms of sizing and condition. As all vintage lovers will know, not one single vintage piece is identical to another. Thats why we love it !
We sell one off pieces. Each product on our site is bespoke and only sold in the size available. Making our products truly unique vintage.
Below is a small informative guide on how to understand our site.
SIZES
Our products are all accurately measured to ensure customer satisfaction. As many vintage enthusiasts will know, not all items are true to their sizing label. This gives our customers the upmost confidence in buying from us.
On our product pages, the size of the garment will be classified by us in regards to the modern UK sizing guides. If our measurements suggest the garment is a different size to that on the label, we will state the size we believe it to be in regards to modern UK measurements. Next to this will be the size stated on the product label.
for example, Reebok and Adidas products from the 1990s were regularly sold in a Mens XL Size. However, in terms of modern product sizing, these garments would fit a UK Mens medium. One of these garments would be described on our product pages as seen below:
SIZE: MEDIUM (Product label states XL)
With our accurate sizing guide, our customers can buy in confidence. As we know, ordering the wrong size is very annoying.
CONDITION
All of our clothes (unless stated otherwise) have been pre-loved and treated with the upmost care. To ensure product quality and high standards, our garments and footwear must pass our quality control checks. We check all aspects of our garments thoroughly for any possible defects. Because all of our clothing is vintage, the garments have been previously worn and mostly incur some signs of wear, hence being vintage !
After inspection, we will grade the clothing on a scale from 1-10 (10 being the highest possible quality grade). These scales are attached to each item on our products page so customers can accurately judge the quality of the items they are buying.
