StockX’s catalog runs deep, but there are some Hidden Gems within it that deserve to be uncovered. From basic essentials by AMI Paris to classic runners by Saucony, take a look at the products that we’ve come across combing through the many pages of StockX.

AMI Paris Ami De Coeur Boxy Fit Cardigan Beige/White

StockX doesn’t only cater to those interested in graphic t-shirts and hype-fueled brands like Supreme and Fear of God: our extensive catalog is home to a number of brands that even those with the most minimalistic style could appreciate, such as AMI Paris. AMI Paris was founded in 2011 by Parisian fashion designer Alexandre Mattiussi. The brand, with its signature Ami de Coeur logo, has drawn attention thanks to its modest, relaxed-fitting pieces, and collaborations with brands like GAP and Puma. AMI Paris has made its way to StockX with this AMI Paris Ami De Coeur Boxy Fit Cardigan being one of the many pieces offered on the site. The cardigan is made from a super-soft wool blend material, making it extremely comfortable and light enough to wear during moderate weather. Its boxy fit and v-neck design allow the cardigan to be worn atop a button-up or tee, whichever your fit may need. 

Saucony Shadow 6000 Megabyte

Retro Styles from the 80s and 90s are having a moment within the sneaker market. Brands like New Balance and Jordan have been leading the charge with their retro silhouettes like the 550 and Air Jordan 1. But there are other brands contributing to this resurgence, like Boston’s very own Saucony. The Saucony Shadow 6000 debuted in 1991 and remains one of the brand’s most revered silhouettes. The sneaker has a cult following and a number of collaborations with sneaker boutiques across the globe, like Bodega, ALIFE, and Billy’s. This pair in particular features a monochromatic beige color scheme and follows the aged aesthetic trending within sneaker culture. Beige suede and mesh uppers are constructed atop a soft, yet durable beige EVA midsole. Lastly, a reflective heel tab adds a design feature popular on most running sneakers. If you’re looking to stay on trend while simultaneously standing out from the pack, Saucony Shadow 6000s might be the best Hidden Gem for you. Not to mention, its price is less than most 550s and AJ1s.

Apple AirPods Max Green

The AirPods Max represent just one of the many innovative pieces of technology created by Apple. Although wireless headphones have been around for some time, Apple found a way to make their version the best of the best with the AirPods that were introduced in 2016. Last year included the latest iteration of their AirPods series, with the AirPods Max debuting in a variety of colors. The Apple AirPods Max Green provide a brighter and more vibrant color option than the typical Space Gray or Silver models. All AirPods Max come equipped with Bluetooth connectivity, Siri-voice command, and up to 20 hours of battery life. What makes this a Hidden Gem on StockX is the fact that it is reselling $50 below its original retail price, with other colors also reselling at even cheaper prices.

Louis Vuitton LV Initials Iconic Earrings Gold

On StockX, a lot of the attention is on Louis Vuitton’s iconic handbags and wallets, which LV has been perfecting since 1932. While the LV jewelry line is relatively young, an impressive list of creative directors, including Marc Jacobs, Kim Jones, and Virgil Abloh, have helped bring LV’s jewelry pieces to the forefront and made them some of the most sought after items from the fashion house. Pieces like these gold Louis Vuitton LV Initials Iconic Earrings are a prime example of Louis Vuitton’s evergrowing jewelry catalog. These earrings take Louis Vuitton’s emblematic “LV” logo and shrink it onto two solid gold studs. Reselling only a few dollars away from its original MSRP, these earrings are a perfect entry point for those new to Louis Vuitton or for those looking to stunt on a budget.

Olivia Rodrigo Sour Target Exclusive LP Vinyl Transparent Blue

This past Grammys ceremony provided another opportunity to show off what StockX has to offer for music lovers. One of the Grammys’ most notable winners was Olivia Rodrigo who won three awards for her debut album, Sour. Sour takes everything you might remember about your angsty teenage years and compiles it into an 11-track masterpiece. The Olivia Rodrigo Sour Target Exclusive LP Vinyl Transparent Blue comes with a limited edition Transparent Blue vinyl, exclusive poster, and new album artwork. Whether you’re a super-fan of the pop star, express interest in listening to the album, or are just looking to secure this vinyl before Rodrigo blows up even more, this vinyl is a great purchase at a solid price for such a decorated album.
