Seller-declared grades, sterling with an approximate US dollar equivalent at £1 ≈ $1.33 (July 2026). What each grade means.
What holds its value across Armani
- Giorgio Armani, the main line, whose soft unstructured tailoring is what the house is actually known for and what holds its price
- Armani Collezioni, discontinued in 2017, which sat just below the main line and is now finite in supply
- Vintage 1980s and 1990s Giorgio Armani tailoring, which is collected for the deconstructed cut that defined the decade
- Emporio Armani watches and eyewear, which are made under licence but carry the eagle mark buyers search for
What pulls Armani resale value down
- Armani Exchange and A|X pieces, which are the high-street line and have very little resale value regardless of condition
- Unstructured jackets that have lost their shape on a wire hanger, since the whole point of the cut is the drape and it does not recover
- Shoulder pads that have compressed or shifted inside the lining, which is a tailoring repair most buyers will not pay for
- Faded black suiting, where repeated dry cleaning has taken the depth out of the cloth and left it reading grey
Identifying and dating yours
- The label names the line directly — Giorgio Armani, Armani Collezioni, Emporio Armani or Armani Exchange — and that name is the single biggest price factor
- Emporio pieces carry the eagle logo; the main line uses a plain typographic label, which is the quickest way to tell the two apart in a photograph
- The composition and country label sits in the inside pocket or side seam and is worth photographing, since the main line is made in Italy
What lifts any gloves, whatever the label
Gloves sell on material and whether they are a genuine pair, and leather condition is what buyers judge.
- Leather and cashmere-lined gloves
- Recognised makers with a following
- Supple leather with no cracking
- Complete matched pairs
And what pulls one down
- Cracked or dried leather at the knuckles
- Split seams between the fingers
- Odd single gloves
- Thin synthetic gloves
Working out what yours is worth
- Flex the leather at the knuckles for cracking
- Check every seam between the fingers
- Measure the hand size or state the marked size
What to state in the listing
- Size, and hand width measured flat
- Outer material and lining material
- Whether they are touchscreen compatible
- Condition of fingertips, seams and lining
Material, size and features: “Leather Gloves, Size M, Cashmere Lined, Touchscreen”. Touchscreen compatibility is a genuine search that is almost never stated. Leather, wool and synthetic are quite different price brackets.
Preparing and photographing it
- Check every fingertip and the seams between the fingers, which is where gloves wear through first.
- Confirm they are a genuine pair and both are the same size, and check any lining is intact.
- Test touchscreen compatibility if the fingertips have conductive thread, and say what you find.
- Both gloves laid flat together, palms down
- Both palms up, showing wear
- The fingertips and seams close up
- The label with size and composition, plus any hole, split seam or worn patch
When it sells best, and handing it over
October to February is the market, with a Christmas gifting peak. Leather gloves hold value best; knitted gloves are best bundled.
Cheapest possible postage. Send them as a flat pair in a padded envelope, and check both are present before sealing — single gloves are a classic packing mistake.
What buyers ask
Is Armani Exchange worth listing?
It sells, but as high-street clothing rather than designer. Price it against other mall brands and do not expect the main line’s prices, or it will simply sit unsold.
How can I tell which Armani line I have?
Read the neck or inside-pocket label. The line name is printed in full, and the difference between Giorgio Armani and Armani Exchange is most of what the piece is worth.
How much are Armani gloves worth?
Roughly £5 to £26 depending on condition, against £4 to £22 for gloves generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
