01
Shopping
How do I know items are authentic?
We stand by the authenticity of all of our products — 100% guaranteed authentic product, every single time. We authenticate our inventory a total of three times while it's in stock.
Is an item still available? Do you have it in my size?
Almost everything we sell is 1-of-1 — one pair, one size. If the product page lets you add it to your bag, it's available in the size shown. If it says SOLD, it's gone. Use the size filter on the shop page or DM us on Instagram and we'll check for you.
How fast do you ship?
All orders ship within 48 hours, with tracking.
How much is shipping / what's my total?
Flat rate shipping anywhere in the United States — Standard shipping is $9.99, Express shipping is $19.99. Orders ship within 48 hours with tracking. Or choose free in-store pickup, available immediately.
We also ship internationally to 28 countries — international rates are calculated at checkout based on your destination and shown in your local currency, and any duties or taxes for your country are shown at checkout where they apply.
What if my package is lost or damaged in transit?
Once a shipment leaves our possession and is accepted by the carrier, we're not financially responsible for packages that are lost, stolen, or damaged in transit — including carrier mishandling — and orders the carrier marks "delivered" are considered complete.
If something goes wrong, start with the carrier in possession of your package and open a claim with them — but reach out to us too: we're happy to help with tracking details, proof of shipment, and documentation for your claim, and to help track down a missing package with the carrier. There's only so much we can do once it's in the carrier's hands.
We offer optional shipping protection in your bag before checkout if you want coverage; unprotected shipments travel at the buyer's risk.
Do you offer pickup?
Yes — free complimentary pickup in store at 20 S Front St, Columbus, OH 43215, available immediately. Choose pickup when you order and come grab it during store hours (Tue–Sun, 12pm–7pm).
What payment options do you take?
Credit/debit card through the website, and Afterpay — pay in 4 interest-free installments — at checkout.
What do your condition labels mean?
Deadstock = brand new and unworn, exactly as it came from retail. Like new = tried on or worn once or twice, no visible wear. Gently used = worn with care, light wear only, cleaned before listing. Used = visible wear consistent with use; photos show the actual item.
Can I return or exchange an item?
All sales are final — we do not offer returns or exchanges. However, we do offer to buy back products so we can resell them. Buyback offers are not a fixed percentage: they vary by the exact product, seasonal demand, and market price changes, and every buyback is treated the same as buying from anybody else. We don't pay out until the item is back in our possession and has been re-authenticated to make sure it's the same product we shipped out.
Can I cancel or change my order?
Once an order is placed, we do not offer cancellations or changes — including for the wrong size. All sales are final. Please double-check your size and item before you check out, and DM us first if you're unsure — we're happy to help you pick the right pair.
Do you offer sneaker cleaning?
Yes — sneaker cleaning starts at $29.99. Drop your pairs off at the shop and we'll get them clean.
02
Selling & trading
Do you offer trade-ins for store credit?
Yes! This is a very popular way for our customers to lower their total cost when shopping with us. Bring your items in for store credit today!
What do you buy?
Authentic sneakers (Jordan, Nike, Yeezy, New Balance and more), streetwear (Essentials, Supreme, BAPE, Denim Tears) and designer accessories (Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Dior) — new and used.
How can I sell if I'm not local?
Send us photos through the Sell form or DM us on Instagram. We'll make you an offer remotely. If you accept, we'll email you a prepaid shipping label. Ship your items in, and once they arrive and are authenticated, we pay you the agreed cash or store credit amount.
How do you decide my offer?
Offers are based on current resale market value, condition, size demand, and whether the original box is included. You can choose cash, store credit, or trade.
Do I need an appointment to sell?
No. Walk in during store hours (Tue–Sun, 12pm–7pm), or send the Sell form first to get an offer before you come. Remote offers usually come back within a few hours during store hours.
How fast do I get paid?
In store: paid the same day. Selling remotely: once your items arrive and are authenticated, we pay the agreed cash or store credit amount.
How can I buy bulk?
We offer pre-owned bulk sneakers and new streetwear to resellers across the country. Give us a call or DM us on IG to get started — or send a bulk inquiry through our Bulk page.
