Puma Sportswear DVSN MCMXLVIII Sherpa-Lined Zip-Up Hoodie
Puma · Clothing & Accessories > Men's Activewear > Hoodies
Era / Decade
Early 2010s. The 'MCMXLVIII' (1948) branding and specific inner neck tag style were prevalent in Puma's 'Sportlifestyle' collections during this period.
Material
Likely a Cotton/Polyester blend shell with a synthetic polyester fleece (Sherpa) lining. Thick-gauge flat drawstrings and metal zipper hardware indicate standard mid-tier sportswear quality.
Condition
Good to Very Good. The outer fabric shows moderate pilling and dust accumulation (typical of navy cotton blends). The Sherpa lining is somewhat matted/grayed from wash and wear. No visible tears or stains.
Demand Level
Moderate. Demand peaks in Autumn and Winter. While Puma is a strong brand, this specific older 'sportlifestyle' line is common and doesn't carry the high resale value of their rare collaborations.
Resale Value
Estimated Resale Value
$18.00 - $35.00
Estimated Retail Value
$65.00 - $80.00
Comparable Sales
Similar pre-owned Puma Sherpa hoodies typically sell for $20-$30 on eBay and Poshmark. New-with-tag versions can reach $45.
Description
Stay warm in this classic Puma Sportlifestyle zip-up hoodie featuring a deep navy blue exterior and a plush cream Sherpa fleece lining. It includes a screen-printed 'Sportswear DVSN Puma' chest logo, MCMXLVIII (1948) inner branding, heavy-duty flat cream drawstrings, and a full-zip front. Two front kangaroo pockets and ribbed cuffs/hem.
Key Features
Heavyweight Sherpa lining for cold weather; classic collegiate-style graphics; recognizable brand; versatile navy and cream colorway; functional 'outdoor' aesthetic.
Authenticity Indicators
High confidence. Authentic Puma tags present inside the neckline and at the lower side seam. Correct use of Roman numerals for Puma's founding year; consistent stitching quality on the labels.
Flaws to Note
Surface pilling on the outer cotton fabric; minor matting of the internal Sherpa lining; fading on the printed chest logo gives it a 'distressed' look which may be intentional or from washing.
Selling Guide
Where to Sell
Mercari, Poshmark, or Depop for a quick sale. Facebook Marketplace for local pickup to avoid shipping costs on a bulky/heavy item.
Selling Tips
Use keywords like 'Sherpa Lined', 'Borg Lined', 'Heavyweight', and 'Athleisure'. Use a fabric shaver to remove pilling from the exterior before photographing to increase perceived value. Photograph the lining clearly to show it is clean.
