Paul Smith Resale Value Guides

56 guides to what used Paul Smith is worth — the price at each condition grade, which lines hold their value, and how to date or identify what you have. Paul Smith is a British tailoring house whose resale rests on the cut and the linings. The signature multi-stripe is the detail buyers look for, and the tailoring is what holds its price.

Which Paul Smith pieces hold their value

Tailored suits and jackets, which are the core of the business and are genuinely well made
Pieces with the signature multi-stripe lining or trim, which is the house detail buyers recognise
Shirts in the distinctive prints, which are made in smaller runs than plain stock
Leather shoes and accessories, which are well constructed and repairable

And what pulls the price down

Altered tailoring, which limits a jacket or suit to buyers of that exact size
Shine on the elbows and seat of worsted suiting, which is permanent wear and cannot be pressed out
Faded linings and prints, which lose the colour the pieces are bought for
Missing spare buttons and suit bags, which buyers of tailoring expect

Identifying and dating yours

These are the checks that decide which end of the range a piece sits in, and they are the facts a serious buyer will ask for:

The interior label names the line, since the main collection and the diffusion ranges sell at different prices
Photograph the lining, because the multi-stripe is the detail that identifies the house at a glance
Measure the chest, shoulder and sleeve flat, as tailoring is bought on measurements rather than labelled size

WishThrift does not authenticate or inspect anything. Condition and origin are described by the seller against five grades — what each one means — so photograph the markings above rather than asserting them.

Frequently asked questions

Is used Paul Smith worth buying?

It depends far more on the line than the label. Paul Smith is a British tailoring house whose resale rests on the cut and the linings. The signature multi-stripe is the detail buyers look for, and the tailoring is what holds its price. Each guide below says which Paul Smith lines hold their value for that item and which have almost none, so you are comparing like for like rather than paying for the name alone.

How do I check a piece is genuine Paul Smith?

The interior label names the line, since the main collection and the diffusion ranges sell at different prices. WishThrift does not authenticate, inspect or grade anything — condition and origin are described by the seller, so ask directly and expect an answer. A seller who has the item will send a photograph of the marking in minutes.
