"Transparency is at the core of the Archive. Every pair is unique, and we meticulously grade all our pre-loved shoes so you know exactly what you're getting."
01PREMIUM
— Near DeadstockOur highest tier of pre-loved footwear. Premium pairs exhibit minimal to zero signs of wear. Uppers are virtually flawless, midsoles are pristine, and outsoles show barely any usage. These are pairs that have been worn perhaps once or twice, indoors, or extremely carefully.
What to expect:
- Zero or barely visible creasing on the toe box
- No scuffs, tears, or stains on the upper material
- Original insole logos are typically fully intact
- Outsole treads show 99%+ of original traction
02EXCELLENT
— Great Shape, Lightly WornExcellent pairs have seen very light previous use but maintain a fantastic overall shape and appearance. They might show minor signs of being worn, but nothing that detracts from the aesthetic or structural integrity of the shoe.
What to expect:
- Very faint, natural creasing on the upper
- Midsoles are clean with perhaps a tiny, unnoticeable scuff
- Insoles may show slight wear
- Outsoles are in excellent condition with over 90% tread life remaining
03VERY GOOD
— Visible Minor WearVery Good pairs are the perfect balance of quality and value. These shoes have been worn regularly but cared for well. They have visible signs of wear but are still in great overall condition with plenty of life left for your rotation.
What to expect:
- Noticeable but acceptable creasing on the upper
- Minor scuffs or slight discoloration on the midsole
- Insole logos might be faded or rubbed off
- Outsoles show normal wear but no critical drag or balding
