Ralph Lauren below retail: a pre-owned buying guide

This guide explains how the pricing works, what to check before buying and how each item is prepared before it is added to the store. The full breakdown of lines, labels and sizing is in the Ralph Lauren guide.

What Ralph Lauren costs in retail versus at leverene

The table shows the retail price of Ralph Lauren items next to the price at leverene.

Prices are set per item, up to 80% below the original retail price.

What to check before buying

Three things decide a good purchase: authenticity, condition and size.

Authenticity is covered in detail in spotting fake Ralph Lauren. Condition is stated clearly in each description, with one of four labels: Deadstock, Excellent, Good or Fair. What to check on each type of item, from the collar to the cuffs, is set out in Ralph Lauren items: what to check.

For size, the label is a weaker guide than the measurements. Each item is measured at four points: chest, length, shoulders and sleeve. With raglan sleeves there is no shoulder seam, so there are three measurements instead of four. Items shown on a model state the model's height and usual size instead of the four measurements. The method is explained in the pit to pit guide.

How items are prepared

Each item is inspected, authenticated, cleaned and measured before it is added to the store. Each step is described in How leverene works.
