At Threadless we are always looking for opportunities to make our apparel selection more inclusive to all body types. Back in March, we announced the launch of our feminine-cut Scoop Neck Regular T-Shirts. Now, we’re happy to introduce our new unisex Classic Fleece Sweatshirts, Pullover Hoodies, and Zip-Up Hoodies, available in sizes up to 5XL! If you have an Artist Shop, you can immediately add these new products.
Making your shop size-inclusive is important for a variety of reasons. First off, it allows more people to wear and support your art. Secondly, it improves the shopping experience for customers who may have a hard time finding apparel they know will fit them comfortably. When you add Classic Fleece to your shop, be sure to tell your followers the good news—but first learn about what makes Classic Fleece so special. Read on for product education on each style, as well as a quick run-through on how to add these products to your shop.
A Closer Look at Classic Fleece
You don’t need us to tell you that fleece is a year-round essential. Chances are your customers have at least a few sweatshirts and hoodies they wear on a regular basis.
Our Classic Fleece offers warmth during brisk, early morning walks around the neighborhood, and are great for layering under a jacket in cold weather. They’re even cozy to wear around the house, especially if Mr. Freeze keeps cranking up the AC. Consider this kind of messaging when you’re crafting your next Instagram post telling folks about the new product in your shop! Learn more about our three new fleece styles, made from a comfortable blend of cotton and polyester.
