Have you heard of JackThreads? I discovered them recently and I think they’re worth checking out.
Much in the same vain as Gilt, JackThreads is a members-only shopping community that provides sales at deep discounts. The catch, naturally, is that these pieces are only available for a limited time (or until they run out) so you have to be quick.
The focus on JackThreads seems to lean on the more casual / streetwear side of fashion, though they are getting more and more grown-up casual pieces and brands, which is nice to see.
Once you sign in, you can browse through their collections. These links won’t work unless you’re signed up, (keep reading till the end for more info), but I’ve seen some nice pieces by Sabit, Howe, 191 Unlimited, Nuco, and Premium Lounge. Caulfield Preparatory is another brand to watch out for; they were carried on JackThreads recently but their sale must have ended.
I can’t recommend everything personally, since I don’t own all this stuff, and like I mentioned, some pieces are too “street” for my taste. Admittedly though, if you take the time to look, there are some nice items that you can work into your more classic wardrobe. The prices are also a lot more manageable compared to other sites. You’ll probably notice that as you browse around.
All in all, I suggest giving JackThreads a look-see and visiting regularly, as you might find some great deals for a ridiculous discount.
Here’s how you sign up and get a sweet ass deal!
The folks at JackThreads were nice enough to provide my readers with a special deal. If you sign up through this URL:
http://www.jackthreads.com/gent
You get to bypass the whole wait list thing (because, be honest, waiting sucks), and you will get a $10 credit that goes towards any purchase! Not to mention, you also get your own special referral URL once you sign up. So if Billy Bob signs up with your referral URL and makes a purchase, you’ll get a $10 credit! Not bad, right?
(Disclosure: signing up at http://www.jackthreads.com/gent does not get me a $10 credit. It doesn’t get me anything, actually. But it does get you, dear reader, a sweet $10 credit in YOUR account. Not me, you! So make sure you sign up through that URL! And enjoy.)
Happy shopping! And let me know what you end up getting.
