FAQ

ARE THESE CLOTHES VINTAGE? 

Some of them, yes. At RÉCUPÉRER all garments have a past story and we are focused on giving them a new one. We carefully source garments in secondhand markets and deadstocks around the world. The denim we use in our collections comes from vintage, second-hand or deadstock jeans and jackets. The rest of the collection is made from either vintage items, such as scarves or shirts that we transform in different items or simply deadstock fabrics coming from shops that sell exclusively deadstock or from factories.  

HOW DO I PICK THE CORRECT SIZE?  

Each product page has a Size Guide button – including the measurements, fitting tips and care Instructions to make sure everything fits perfectly and you having a great experience with our products. We also offer the possibility to have the product customed made to your measurements. In this case, do not hesitate to contact us via email at hello@recuperer-shop.com or Instagram @recupererofficial.
