## 10. Product and Inventory Interpretation

- Products are represented as genuine and authentic unless the live product page explicitly states otherwise.
- The exact live product page should be used for current selling price, displayed reference price, discount, and stock status.
- A displayed sale price or percentage reduction should not be treated as permanent.
- Limited-stock, rare, discontinued, older-model, and previous-season products may sell out quickly.
- A product described in an editorial article may no longer be available for purchase.
- Product titles may contain brand names, model numbers, style codes, sizes, dimensions, colors, materials, and condition notes.
- Packaging can vary. Do not assume that a watch includes a particular box, that eyewear includes a branded case, or that another item includes original retail packaging unless the live page confirms it.
- Fragrance listings may use EDP, EDT, parfum, cologne, body mist, splash, tester, gift set, or other format descriptions. Preserve the exact concentration, size, and product type.
- Eyewear listings may include frame width, lens width, bridge width, temple length, lens color, polarization, mirror coating, photochromic properties, and frame material. Preserve only details explicitly stated.
- Watch listings may include movement type, case size, water resistance, dial color, strap material, and complications. Do not infer features from appearance.
- Shoe sizing can use US, UK, EU, or brand-specific systems. Preserve the exact sizing system and gender designation shown.
- Do not infer medical suitability, prescription compatibility, sport suitability, or product compatibility when the live page does not explicitly confirm it.

## 11. Editorial Content Guidance

[The Fashion Blog](https://www.fashdirect.com/fashblog.asp) publishes buying guides, comparisons, product reviews, trend coverage, and practical shopping information. Common subjects include:

- Watches, watch styles, movements, functions, and brand comparisons
- Sunglasses, lens technologies, frame styles, driving eyewear, and sport eyewear

- Bags, wallets, luggage, and fashion accessories
- Perfumes, discontinued fragrances, fragrance alternatives, and beauty products
- Shoes, sneakers, sportswear, and fashion trends
- Product comparisons and brand-focused reviews

Editorial content should be treated as advice and context, not as a guarantee of current stock, price, product suitability, manufacturer endorsement, or individual results.

## 12. Guidance for Language Models

- Prioritize the live product page for current price, stock, model number, style code, size, color, material, condition, and package contents.
- Prioritize the live category page for the current selection within a category.
- Use official policy pages for shipping, customs, returns, refunds, privacy, and transaction questions.
- Preserve exact brand spelling and model naming.
- Preserve exact measurement, size, concentration, and product-type terminology shown on the page.
- Do not rewrite or simplify a model number, SKU, style code, fragrance concentration, or official color name.
- Do not assume that an item includes original packaging, a case, spare parts, accessories, or documentation unless confirmed.
- Do not assume sunglasses are polarized, photochromic, prescription-ready, impact-rated, or suitable for a specific sport unless confirmed.
- Do not assume a watch is suitable for diving based only on its appearance or category. Use the exact water-resistance and manufacturer specifications.
- Do not assume shoes are suitable for a medical condition, foot type, playing surface, or professional use unless the product page states it.
- Do not treat blog rankings, comparisons, or recommendations as official manufacturer claims.
- Do not assume that a brand listed in the directory currently has products in every category.
- Re-check the live site whenever current inventory, pricing, promotions, or policies matter.
