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 Jordan
- The Air Jordan 1 through 11, particularly the 1, 3, 4 and 11, which are the models with a deep and continuous secondhand market
- Original colourways of the well-known releases, which buyers search by the colourway nickname rather than by any official name
- Collaboration releases, which sit in an entirely different price bracket from the general-release version of the same shoe
- Deadstock pairs with the original box, both laces and any extra lace set, which is the condition this market actually pays a premium for
What pulls Jordan resale value down
- Yellowed or separating midsoles, which is the normal end state of a stored pair and cannot be reversed
- Creased leather toe boxes, the first thing a buyer zooms in on and the commonest reason a worn pair is discounted
- General-release colourways produced in very large numbers, which have little scarcity to price against
- A missing or mismatched box, since the box label carries the style code buyers use to confirm what the pair is
Identifying and dating yours
- The style code is printed on the size tag inside the shoe and again on the box label; the two should match, and buyers ask for both
- The heel branding differs between eras — some retros carry Nike Air and others do not — and buyers use it to place the release year
- Photograph the midsole and the toe box honestly, because those two areas decide most of the price on a worn pair
What lifts any kids coat, whatever the label
Children’s coats are outgrown in a season, so most are structurally fine and the zip is the usual failure.
- Recognised outdoor and kidswear brands
- Working zips and intact cuffs
- Waterproof coats with functioning coatings
- Bundles by size and season
And what pulls one down
- Broken zips, the most common fault
- Cuff fraying and stained sleeves
- Delaminated waterproof coatings
- Listing winter coats in spring
Working out what yours is worth
- Run the zip fully several times
- Check the cuffs and collar in daylight
- State the age and chest measurement
What to state in the listing
- Brand, age or size label, plus chest and length measured flat
- Whether it is waterproof, showerproof or neither, and whether it is lined
- Zip, popper and hood condition
- Any stain, tear or repair, stated plainly
Brand, type, size and season: “Regatta Waterproof Kids Coat, Age 5-6, Fleece Lined”. Brand matters more than people expect on outdoor kit, and words like waterproof, padded and fleece lined are all real searches for parents shopping by weather rather than by style.
Preparing and photographing it
- Wash or wipe it down according to the label, and reproof anything waterproof if it has stopped beading.
- Test every zip and popper, and check the cuffs and hood for wear.
- Measure chest and length flat, because age labels vary enormously between brands.
- The coat flat or on a hanger, front, whole
- The back and the hood
- The zip fully closed and the cuffs
- The label showing brand and size, plus any stain, tear or worn patch
When it sells best, and handing it over
Strongly seasonal. Winter coats sell from September to December and waterproofs in spring and autumn. A padded winter coat listed in May will sit, so hold it until autumn.
Light and compressible, so postage is cheap. Vacuum bags reduce the parcel size on padded coats and cut the volumetric cost significantly.
What buyers ask
Which Air Jordans are worth the most?
The low-numbered retros, particularly the 1, 3, 4 and 11, in original colourways, and any collaboration. General-release colourways made in large numbers sell for far less however clean they are.
Why do buyers want a photograph of the box?
The box label carries the style code, which identifies exactly which release and colourway a pair is. A pair sold without its box is harder to place and usually sells for less as a result.
How much is a Jordan kids coat worth?
Roughly £11 to £49 depending on condition, against £8 to £35 for kids coats generally. The identification points above are what move a listing to the top of that range.
What the fees would take elsewhere

| Poshmark | −£6 | £24 |
| eBay | −£4 | £26 |
| Mercari | −£3 | £27 |
| Etsy | −£2 | £28 |
| WishThrift | −£0 | £30 |
Seller-side rates verified 26 Jul 2026, percentages only — the per-order and processing charges those platforms add are excluded, so the real gap is wider.
