Sizing and condition

Vintage Sizing

Vintage clothing sizing often differs from modern-day standards due to changes over the years. Some vintage items may not have their original brand, size, or material tags. We do our best to recommend the closest possible modern-day size range for each piece, but please note that these are only guidelines. Since every body is unique, we encourage you to refer to the measurements provided in each listing to ensure a proper fit.

If you need more information about sizing, product details, potential flaws, or colors, feel free to email us at hello@thelocalvintage.com. Our customer service hours are Monday to Friday, 10:00 am - 6:00 pm IST.

Vintage Condition

All our vintage items are hand-picked and curated by our team. Since they are from the pre-2000s era, they may have some imperfections and signs of wear, as they are pre-loved. We do our best to note any significant flaws and color variations in each product description and price them accordingly. However, minor imperfections like pilling, discoloration, small tears, pulls, or loose threads may sometimes be overlooked even after careful inspection.

We encourage you to embrace the character and history of vintage pieces, understanding that these unique qualities add to their charm.

To help you understand the condition of each item, we use the following descriptions:

• Excellent Vintage Condition: Near-perfect condition with minimal signs of wear, such as a loose thread or minor bobbling.
• Very Good Vintage Condition: Generally in excellent condition, with flaws that are not obvious when worn. Any such flaws are mentioned in the product description.
• Good Vintage Condition: Wearable but with visible flaws, which are always detailed in the description.
