Actually, stores like Marshalls, TJMaxx, etc, they get clothes from other retailers for many reasons: damages, defects, last season, overstock. Typically a line is drawn so that you know it's not brand new, and the company sometimes does it right after it's made. I saw Abercrombie jeans with a stamp on the label there once. It said defective or damaged, i don't remember.


It's not a big deal. The clothes are still okay to wear and everything.
