Vintage Explained
Vintage and retro are often used interchangeably to describe things from the past, but they actually have different meanings.
Vintage refers to something that is from a previous era, usually 20 to 100 years old. Vintage items are often associated with high quality, craftsmanship, and timelessness.
Retro, on the other hand, refers to something that imitates a style or design from the past, but is not necessarily old. Retro items often have a nostalgic feel, and are often associated with a particular era or time period. For example, a Metallica print t-shirt, may imitate a style or design from the past, giving it a nostalgic feel but is actually from the current era and therefore considered retro. But it isn't the same as a Metallica t-shirt made in 1989 from one of their concert which is actually from that era and can therefore be considered vintage.
In summary, vintage refers to items that are actually from a previous era, while retro refers to new items that are designed to imitate a previous era's style or design.
Product that are labled as "vintage," means that the item is from a previous era and is at least 20 years old to our best knowledge and authenticity checks. The dates indicated on the product are the year of original publication, not just a reprint. This means that the product is an authentic item from the past and not a modern reproduction.
When a product is labeled as vintage, it usually means that it has some historical or nostalgic value. Vintage items are associated with high quality, craftsmanship, and timelessness, and are often sought after by collectors and enthusiasts.
We try our best to authenticate vintage pieces, which are at least 20 years old and offer them to you. It might happen that some items are little younger or older than indicated, as the exact date is sometimes very hard or impossible to find out.
