FAQs

What is ThreadLab?

ThreadLab is an online men’s personal shopping service designed to make life easier. We use a combination of data-driven technology, super-friendly customer service, the best menswear brands and a network of style savvy shoppers to get you the clothes you need, at awesome prices, effortlessly. We offer on-demand orders and subscriptions plus free returns/exchanges to keep your life simple and easy.


How does ThreadLab work?

1. Sign up

Signing up for ThreadLab is free and takes about a minute. We ask for basic information like size, weight, age, desired price ranges, brands you like and the colors/patterns you wear. This helps us understand your sizes, preferences and budget. You can update this information any time in Your Account.

2. Place an order (any time) or set up a Subscription

Simply select the Product Categories you need and how much you’re looking to spend, and we’ll find the best products for you. We offer an optional Order Preview by email if you’d like to see the items we’ve selected for you. You can edit the selection before we ship. If you prefer a surprise assortment of items, you can opt out of the Order Preview. We are flexible and customer-friendly.

3. Shipment arrives

  1. Try everything on (minus the socks and underwear.)
  2. Returns must be in new condition with tags and no signs of wear.
  3. Check out by logging into Your Account and clicking on your order in Order History. Request exchanges and provide feedback on any items so that your future orders will be even more precise.
  4. If you decide you need to return, or exchange something, no problem. We always include a self-sealing pre-paid UPS label.

4. Give feedback that makes the service even better for you

Provide as much feedback as possible on every item. We give you a chance to provide feedback at Order Preview and once your order arrives. This way our system learns more about you and the clothes that will work best, making your future ordering even easier. Additionally, you can always give us more details about your preferences by refining your Product Preferences or Brand Preferences in Your Account.

What type of guy will benefit most from ThreadLab?

Our service works best for the guy who simply doesn’t have the time, patience or interest to think about fashion or clothes shopping.

If you find clothing boring and frustrating, ThreadLab will benefit you.

If you know you need new clothing, but have zero interest in shopping we’ll help you look great and make life easier.


What brands can I expect?​

After you sign up, you can go into Brand Preferences in Your Account to see the brands we carry. You can also eliminate brands so that we only send you brands that you like to wear. We source from a wide variety of brands – large name brands found at Nordstrom and Macy’s such as Levi’s, Ben Sherman, Original Penguin, Brooks Brothers, GAP, J.Crew, UNIQLO, Polo, Calvin Klein and Bonobos.

We also include smaller up and coming brands that offer great quality and value such as Jumper Threads, Pistol Lake, Big Star, Boast and Canvas. We will help you discover the best brands for your body type, fit preference, lifestyle and budget.


How is ThreadLab a more effective shopping experience?​

We make getting your clothes fast and easy. You don’t have to browse through hundreds of items or waste time stuck in the crowds at the mall.

We take the time to make sure the brands and items we offer are good quality and that each item will work for your body type.

To top it off, the more you use ThreadLab, the faster and easier your shopping will get. Your feedback and preferences are taken into consideration on every order and over time our system evolves to know your preferences.

You’ll spend less time, less money, and end up with better fitting awesome clothes.

When will my credit card be charged?

We charge your card when you place your order. This helps simplify your ThreadLab experience and also allows for better pricing and 365 days to return items.


What is the return policy?​

Return anything you don’t need within 365 days (unworn and tags on) and we’ll refund you for the value of those items in Store Credit or ship an Exchange.
