Everything Vintage Stores Should Tell You — But Don’t
Everything Vintage Stores Should Tell You — But Don’t
You’ve got questions. We’ve got answers — and not the boring kind. This is your no-BS guide to shopping vintage online. Everything they forget to explain? It’s right here.
🧼 Are vintage clothes clean?
Absolutely. Every piece is washed, steamed, and inspected before it goes online. No thrift store smell. Just ready-to-wear fire.
Bonus: Orders over €50 get a free keychain — our way of saying thanks.
📏 Why does vintage sizing feel all over the place?
Because it is. A Large in 1997 might be a Small today. That’s why every product at Lyons Way has both the original tag (if available) and our recommended modern size — based on real fit, not guesswork.
🧵 What kind of “flaws” are normal in vintage?
Minor fading, small pinholes, cracked prints — these aren’t flaws. They’re part of the story. We’ll always show and describe anything major. No surprises.
👕 Are your vintage pieces one of a kind?
Yes. Every single item is 1 of 1. Once it’s sold, it’s gone forever. Even our Lyons Way Exclusive line is made-to-order. No mass production. No overstock. No clones.
💸 Why is vintage more expensive than thrift?
We’re not flipping $2 tees. We hand-pick every piece, clean it, shoot it, and make sure it hits. This isn’t bargain bin — it’s curated, wearable art. You're paying for quality, rarity, and the work behind it.
📦 Where do your vintage items come from?
We source globally from trusted collectors, deadstock archives, and vintage specialists. Each piece is chosen by hand and checked for authenticity, condition, and style. If we wouldn’t wear it, we don’t sell it.
🌍 Do you ship worldwide?
Yes. Wherever you are, we’ll get your order to you. Packed in 100% eco-friendly materials. Always.
🔁 What if something doesn’t fit?
Don’t stress. We offer easy returns on eligible pieces. Just reach out and we’ll help you sort it.
🔍 Is everything authentic?
100%. We check labels, stitching, tags, and construction. If we’re unsure — we don’t list it. Simple.
💬 Can I DM you with questions?
Yes — please do. Hit us on @lyonsway or email lyonsway.service@gmail.com. We actually answer. Fast.
