Every J Crew tag I've ever seen has a style number and a season/year code listed on an interior tag . Style code is five digits, 1 letter and four numbers. Older style tags are five numbers. Season/year code is typically listed as follows: SP20 - Spring 2020 SU21 - Summer 2021 FW19 - Fall/Winter 2019 If you see "HO" that is basically short for "Holiday" and means Fall/Winter. Hope that helps. Answer from Deleted User on reddit.com

r/preppy on Reddit: J.CREW Tag Database?
November 22, 2023 -

Since I've officially renounced cheap sweaters (and the majority of women's sweaters under $300 are crap now) I've been scouring Poshmark for vintage JCREW and LLBEAN. In fact I just scored an amazing wool oarsman for $50 that I'm in love with.

But there are so many different J.CREW tags out there and the bit of online history I've found only covers a few of the tags from the 90s and early aughts.

Was thinking someone has or should catalog all of the JCREW tags to create a good reference. I'd be happy to do it if someone can give me an idea of how to start. Do the inside tags have a date code?

Anyone?

J.Crew Fashion Brand - Guide to Value, Marks, History | WorthPoint Dictionary
In 1989, J. Crew opened its first store in Manhattan and created two distinct collections with two different catalogs: "Collections," which used finer fabrics with costlier price tags, and "Classics," which was traditional J. Crew ready-to-wear for both work and play. Unlike other companies, J. Crew never veered from its original aesthetic. Geared toward upper-middle-class customers, it was classically sporty with an East Coast feel. Dresses were often vintage-inspired but made with modern fabrics.

r/Depop on Reddit: Anyone familiar with J Crew Tags?
June 22, 2022 - searched and found a few that said 90s, but like you said people do it regardless of the year. if your really worried maybe label as vintage + put a disclaimer that you believe it’s from the 90s but not sure. wouldn’t think too much on it imo, it’s not like your tagging a 2012 shein piece as vintage. but good on you for being so specific! ... I’m leaning towards 90s but keep second guessing. I looked at some modern stuff and it looks like as far as jeans go jcrew has gone away with tags for their logo and started screen printing or heat transferring on to the waistband like other modern companies.

Before J.Crew had Joan Smalls, Hilary Rhoda or Arizona Muse, they had Dawson's Creek. Sure enough, the Fall 1998 catalog features the baby-faced cast cavorting around some picturesque, East Coast landscape in simple (albeit nondescript) casuals.
