Men’s clothing used to be a sad affair, comprised of tiny corners in department stores and a few outrageously expensive bespoke tailors. Now, menswear arguably leads the fashion world: affordable startups are elevating basics like T-shirts and workout shorts, big-name stores are putting real effort into their men’s collections, and designers are making bold, adventurous statement pieces worthy of our hard-earned dough.
But, with this surplus of menswear, it can be hard to know where to start. To help make things easier, we’ve rounded up some of the best online clothing stores for men, including e-shops for everything from outdoor gear to sneakers to suits.
To find the best online clothing stores for men, we just went through our history: our editors source menswear from budget online clothing stores and online designer merchants alike, so we went back and rounded up some of the best online clothing stores for men that we end up returning to time and again.
Check them out below, along with our recommendations from each site.
Todd Snyder has managed to retain its old-school American charm while staying up-to-date with current trends. We love stopping by their online store for vintage-inspired shirts, sweaters, and collaborative pieces.
Once your career gets some traction (or you want to dress for that promotion), head to Mr. Porter. The online men’s shopping site has become a mainstay for designer menswear, with an especially good collection of stylish professional pieces worthy of any corner office.
If getting dressed often feels like a tug-of-war between fashion and function, check out Rhone. The brand’s flagship pieces, like these new Commuter Pro Pants, are designed to be functional enough to walk nine holes on a hot day at the golf course, but also pulled together enough for the office or date night. They also make some of our favorite workout shorts, if you’re in need of a refresh.
Some of the best online clothing stores for men now deal with resale items. Farfetch is one of our favorites with a mix of designer clothing and hard-to-find, sold-out items (like trendy footwear). Plus, everything is certified authentic.
After years in fashion jail, Abercrombie & Fitch has made a full comeback (no, really). Now geared towards stylish young professionals, the retailer is pumping out shockingly good off-duty button-ups, fresh graphic tees and sweaters, and jeans.
The department store model may be suffering, but Nordstrom is still keeping us outfitted. Great for office attire like dress pants and grown-up sweaters, as well as grooming products and casual staples, Nordstrom is a worthy place to do a full wardrobe spruce-up.
Whether you need a suit for wedding season or a new job — or you’re just the suit and tie type — Men’s Wearhouse remains tough to beat for value and selection. They have a large selection of suits from brands like Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein. If you’re confused by the dress code, Men’s Wearhouse even lets you shop by occasion.
Another department store that we like to check when shopping is Saks Fifth Avenue. They have a massive selection — and one of the most slept-on sale sections of any department store. Right now, we’re seeing dozens of brands like AMI, Ralph Lauren Purple Label, Prada, and Wales Bonner all heavily discounted.
Founded in 2010, Everlane has quickly made a name for itself as a go-to for essentials. Think well-fitted jeans, classic outerwear, tees, and Oxford shirts — all at very reasonable prices (their direct-to-consumer model means Everlane can charge us less).
Technical outdoor gear has been popping up on runways, in offices, and on the street lately (think Arc’teryx and North Face jackets, Patagonia shorts, and hiking boots). Whether you’re getting in on that trend, or gearing up for an actual outdoor adventure, Backcountry has a massive selection of all our favorite outdoor-ready pieces.
Another great source for outdoor gear and outdoor-inspired clothing is Huckberry. Compared to a shop like Backcountry, Huckberry features more pieces that work for modern offices as well as the great outdoors (think waxed jackets, casual shoes, and great shorts).
Lululemon has become much more than a store for women’s yoga pants. The activewear brand now makes some of the best workout shorts, tops, and athleisure pants for men, boasting premium materials and serious comfort.
Vuori is something like Lululemon’s younger brother who surfs, lifts, plays volleyball, and does yoga on his rest days. Workout shorts are the brand’s bread and butter, but they also offer high-tech layers that work great for sweaty activities or chill trips to the coffee shop.
UK retailer END. has one of the best curations of attainable designer clothing and footwear. You’ll find streetwear labels like Stone Island, casual staples like Acne Studios, and even some cult brands you’ve probably never heard of. Stop by their sale section to snag weekend attire upgrades.
SSENSE occupies a similar space as END. with an up-to-date collection of designer menswear and up-and-coming brands alike. Their collection is massive, so it’s great if you already know what you need (maybe you want a statement jacket or some new bold trunks).
It’s pretty incredible that Levi’s invented jeans and still dominates the market. Everyone and their mother seems to own a pair of Levi’s — no matter their bank account, lifestyle, or sense of fashion. Right now, we think the classic 501s are the Levi’s to get, showcasing a straight fit that’s neither too baggy nor too skinny.
Many of Nike’s most desirable shoes are only on resale websites, but we still check Nike’s website all the time for classics and new sneakers that may have flown under the radar. Plus, of course, Nike also has some of the best activewear and loungewear on the market — no matter your sport or personal style.
Some people just prefer stripes over swooshes, and we can’t blame them. From timeless tracksuits to go-to sneakers, Adidas is currently at the top of its game with footwear and clothing. Be sure to hit their sale section for some surprisingly good deals.
Gap’s grown-up brother, Banana Republic, is quietly making some great men’s pieces at the moment. Picture dapper grandpa style that works on everyone, with standout pieces like linen shirts, everyday chinos, and casual suits.
Buck Mason came on the scene just over 12 years ago, and they’ve been nailing the relaxed yet pulled-together look we’re typically going for these days. On the brand’s website, you’ll score casual shirts, premium denim, and even suits. Shop Buck Mason’s Latest Collection
A couple of years ago, J. Crew enlisted Noah’s Brendon Babenzien to turn their brand around. And we think Babenzien pulled it off. The famous retailer now boasts modern takes on some menswear classics. Head to their website for things like office-ready “Giant Fit” chinos, classic Oxford shirts, and other wardrobe staples at a reasonable price.
Amazon isn’t traditionally associated with great style, but the site shouldn’t be overlooked. Over the years, their selection has only gotten better, and while we’ve outlined some great basics you should scoop up immediately, it’s worth looking at their site for discounts on everything.
Uniqlo’s well-made, affordable basics have earned it a well-deserved cult following, and it’s still delivering. Head to the Japanese brand for things like tees, sweaters, and classic button-ups (that won’t put a big dent in your bank account).
REI isn’t just camping gear and sports equipment. The outdoor go-to also carries a great selection of clothing — including both day-to-day and outdoor apparel — plus shoes and cold-weather accessories.
Known for sleek, affordable pieces, Cos is great for slightly elevated essentials like slacks, sweaters, and polos. However, the London-based brand (part of the H&M Group) also has some solid statement pieces like this new suede jacket.
