There is little that you can't find on Amazon, and now you can even find J.Crew clothing there thanks to the debut of the new J.Crew Mercantile collection.
The J.Crew Mercantile collection is a first-ever partnership between Amazon Fashion and J.Crew. The new lineup will offer pared-down version of everyday basics for both men and women, including tees, denim, and J.Crew's famous chino pants. The pieces are described as "timeless classics, everyday necessities, and statement pieces that become your go-tos day in and day out." The collection will also be budget-friendly, with nothing running more than $300 and free shipping on all items.
With Nike, Calvin Klein, and now J.Crew available from Amazon, the ecommerce giant is set to eclipse Walmart as the number one player in the US apparel industry.
