How We Authenticate

How Do We Authenticate Streetwear?

Every piece is inspected in front of you at the counter.

Streetwear fakes are everywhere. We check brand-specific details before making any offer:

  • Tags & Labels — font, stitching, placement, wash tag details, season codes
  • Materials & Construction — fabric weight, zipper hardware, print quality, embroidery
  • Brand-Specific Markers — Supreme watermarks, BAPE camo patterns, Chrome Hearts hallmarks, Moncler badges & NFC chips
  • Packaging — bags, stickers, receipts when available (not required)
  • Cross-Reference — we compare against known retail releases, season lookbooks, and resale databases

If it doesn't pass, we'll tell you why. If it does, you get a cash offer on the spot. No pressure, no obligation.

Which streetwear brands have the best resale?
Supreme box logos, Chrome Hearts jewelry, vintage BAPE shark hoodies, and Off-White collabs consistently hold the strongest resale value in NYC.
Do you buy vintage band and rap tees?
Yes — single-stitch vintage tees, 90s rap tees, and tour merch with authentic tags and prints. Value depends on rarity, condition, and print quality.
Do you buy Chrome Hearts jewelry?
Yes — rings, bracelets, chains, pendants, and leather. Chrome Hearts is heavily faked so we inspect hallmarks and construction carefully.
Does the season or year affect value?
Yes — older Supreme seasons, early BAPE releases, and discontinued collabs often carry premium. We check season tags and cross-reference against known drops.

Yes — Supreme camp caps, BAPE bags, Chrome Hearts accessories, and other authenticated hype items with resale demand.
What if my item is from a collab or limited drop?
Limited collabs and exclusive drops often command premium pricing. Bring documentation or tags if you have them — not required but helps.
