2. Product Information

Cold Wash specializes in:

  • Vintage apparel

  • Archive sportswear

  • Secondhand garments

  • Deadstock and collectible items

Due to the nature of vintage and pre-owned products:

  • Items may show signs of age, wear, fading, distressing, cracking, or minor imperfections

  • Measurements may vary from modern sizing standards

  • Colors may appear differently depending on screen settings and lighting

We do our best to accurately photograph and describe all items.

All items are sold as-is.


3. Sizing Disclaimer

Vintage sizing varies significantly by era, manufacturer, and country of origin.

Customers are responsible for reviewing all listed measurements before purchasing. Cold Wash is not responsible for sizing or fit issues.


4. Vintage Garment Disclaimer

Due to the age and collectible nature of vintage garments, Cold Wash does not guarantee future durability, lifespan, or wearability of any item.

Natural aging, fabric deterioration, cracking, fading, or material weakening may occur over time.

Purchasing vintage items acknowledges acceptance of these risks.


5. Authenticity

Items are sourced and represented in good faith based on our experience, research, and sourcing practices.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, Cold Wash does not provide third-party authentication certificates or guarantees.


6. Pricing & Availability

All prices are listed in USD.

We reserve the right to:

  • Change pricing at any time

  • Correct pricing errors

  • Incorrect shipping addresses provided by customers

  • Customs delays or import fees on international shipments

  • Delays caused by shipping carriers

If an item arrives significantly different from its description, customers must contact us within 72 hours of delivery.
