The Best Brands for Vintage Clothing

The Best Brands for Vintage Clothing

From timeless designs to iconic logos, the best brands for vintage can be seen from the likes of Nike, Adidas, Harley Davidson and more. Some of these brands are often expensive but when they become older, they make for cheap vintage

In this blog, we will cover the best in vintage and what makes these brands so archetypal. 

Nike

Beginning in 1964, this iconic brand is infamous for its timeless vintage. In a range of stylish tees, shoes, socks and jackets, nothing pairs better than a piece of vintage Nike. A few of our favourite pieces include this Nike Sweater in striking baby blue, perfect for pairing with a shirt underneath for a preppy look and these Block Colour Crew Socks.

Adidas

Originating as a sports shoe manufacturing business, the timeless 3-stripe brand offers the ultimate in sports attire. Showcasing the trefoil, this logo is intended to symbolise diversity and international appeal, paying homage to the three major land masses where the Adidas shoes were originally sold - North America, Europe, and Asia. Gaining popularity over the years, the Adidas demand has never lost traction; from tracksuits to trainers. This Adidas Sweater boasts a contrasting colourway, perfect for pairing with jeans, chinos, or a mini skirt. 

Harley Davidson 

Founded in Milwaukee in 1903, this timeless brand is an American motorcycle company that has gained major traction with its merchandise clothing – mainly tees. Many people style these pieces in a punk-esq vibe, usually paired with denim and open jackets to showcase the classic logo. Pop on this Vintage Tee with a pair of light denim for a motor look that never goes out of style. 

Tommy Hilfiger

Launching in 1985, the TH brand is the ultimate vintage style. This iconic logo features red and white which is the International Code of Signals' flag "H" ("Hotel") – used alone translates to "I have a pilot on board." In the case of their logo, it stands for Hilfiger. Simple and classic, this Tommy Hilfiger Sweater in an XL is perfect for oversized style. 

University Tees

Although not a brand, rocking a university t-shirt never goes out of style. Whether you want to pretend you went to Harvard or you simply like the logo, a few of our favourite college pieces include this Vintage Colorado College Sweater and this Vintage Savannah State College T-Shirt. 

One Thing In Common

Although each of these brands has their own story and own style, there is one common variable amongst them – they are timeless.

Whether you want to style a traditional vintage look, sporty-streetwear or simply just want a piece to enhance your own original vibe, Official Vintage has the item for you.
