How does SASOM define "Brand New" Apparel?

SASOM defines “Brand New” apparel as follows:

✳ Unworn and in flawless condition.

✳ No modifications or alterations.

✳ For brand-new apparel that includes older styles or vintage items (over 10 years old), there may be some signs of shelf aging, such as discoloration in white t-shirts. However, they should show no signs of being used.

SASOM continually updates the authentication standards to ensure smooth transactions between trading parties and to establish more balanced authentication criteria. Please refer to the latest authentication standards before proceeding with a transaction.

All products sold or purchased are shipped only after SASOM's professional authentication team has thoroughly checked the product's condition and approved the authenticity.

Precautions regarding apparel:

✳ SASOM performs basic quality checks and authentication. However, as an intermediary, SASOM is not responsible for the manufacturer's warranty for each product.

✳ For questions about product functionality or other product-related issues, please contact the manufacturer directly.

✳ For apparel authentication, the sealed packaging is opened during the authentication process.

In addition to the criteria outlined by SASOM's authentication standards, products that are not recognized as defective by the manufacturer for the reasons listed below, or products that cannot be clearly identified based on our authentication standards, will not be considered defective. As a result, purchase cancellations will not be allowed for these reasons.

✳ Missing or missing parts on product tags, components, etc.

✳ Issues that may arise due to the manufacturing process, distribution process, or material characteristics.

Regarding ambiguous product conditions, non-specific product conditions, and individual differences due to the manufacturing process of a specific model, the final decision will be made by the authentication center manager.
