    Thank you for sharing the info. It's something that my friend shared with me the other day. There are people that gatekeep the information for selfish purposes but sharing what you learned and what's helped you will in turn help us. There's enough bad ass pieces to go around.

    So helpful 😍 thank you so much I’ve been collecting vintage items while thrifting and had enough to post a UA-cam haul which I just posted and was totally lost on how to identify and figure out the era this was a God send!

    I loved this video! You provided so many essentials to identifying vintage. I don't have much experience with vintage t-shirts and I had no idea that Michael Jordan for Hanes was the start of tagless in 2002! I sell vintage on Poshmark, eBay and Etsy and love following you on Instagram. I just started youtube last week and love watching your channel already!

    Well hello there. I have been resseling used videogames and consoles and I realized that there are also some videogame clothing that are rare and can actually make me even more money so I decided to do a search for vintage clothing and ended up here. We have a really great app here in Europe called vinted where we can buy and sell clothing, as well as other stuff. I never been interested in clothing before, but at 1:53 minute on this video and I might even be more interested now I'm other stuff rather than just videogame themed cloth. So thank u for that:)

    I know this video isn't exactly recent but I wanted to give you props for these great tips! I've been paying attention to RN/CA numbers as I thrift and have noticed some garments have both the RN and CA numbers. Is one better than another to refer to for finding an estimated decade? I found a nifty RN calculator that guesses the year but haven't been able to find one for CA numbers. Thoughts/advice? Thanks so much for your helpful video!

    I heard that most stores throw anyways new clothing just because they couldn't sell them by a certain time. Plus I know one thrift shop that throw away a lot of their stuff just because they couldn't sell them. I think its really sad that people throw away some much clothes.

  • @katiefyock9607

    Also go by measurements and not by the tag size sometimes because sizes changed through the years.

    I’m quite confused with “ vintage “ thrifting. Are clothes made in 19s to 20s means vintage? Like these days, there are also thrifting shops which sells second handed clothes, are those also called vintage ? I’m really into clothing which are made in the 19s.

    I hope that with ppl finding vintage fashion exciting I also hope and wish you would educate a bit more. The fact that you said for those of you that don’t know who Gloria Vanderbilt is……Really? If they don’t know who she s but they know who Anderson Cooper is tells me they are not a true lover of vintage wear

    I’m not interested in what sellers refer to as “trendy” vintage…it’s more of quality, design for me. Trends come and go, however, quality, beautiful materials (buttons, closures, zippers, stitching); these things cannot be replicated. Finally, I prefer to search out my my own clothing in little known areas. It seems people have jumped on the so called vintage train and the pricing is absolutely vulgar. Take your time research before you hunt for true quality vintage items(clothing and accessories.) it will prevent you from being “priced gauged.”
