Etsy Finds: Make More Men's Clothing, Please

When I first discovered Etsy, I thought to myself "how brilliant, I can shop online for cool handmade clothes and I'll never have to set foot into another department store or mall ever again." Unfortunately, this isn't the case at all. Etsy is saturated with women’s clothing and jewelry, but when it comes time for a dude to go shopping for, let's say a pair of denim jeans, well — guys, you may not have a huge range of options. However, I do like these Men's Organic Denim Tight Boot Cut Jeans from justbeorganics.


I did a bit of research and found a few items that I believe are suitable for my style, although I would LOVE to see more variety in the men's clothing section on Etsy. With that in mind, I am encouraging everyone I have met through Etsy who sells clothing to begin targeting the men... Who knows, this might be a better niche that you have ever dreamed of. (Make men's clothing! I repeat, make men's clothing!)

Those zombie shoes are pretty amazing.

I thought the skateboard guy was shaving his under arms.

I was like wow, he doesn't look like a metrosexual.

But I enlarged and saw the real deal. Very insightful.

I love the zombie shoes, although I am not too fond of being bitten on Facebook from zombies.

The skateboards were awesome! I am considering getting one, maybe through alchemy though just to have a special design I have in mind.

of course men want more jewelry. I am not much of a jewelry person, but I know many guys who love watches, necklaces, bracelets, wrist cuffs, rings, etc.

Yeah, the belt buckle rocks!

Thanks for all of your comments!

I agree....more dude stuff....I have started a few pieces of man jewelry. I have many more ideas. I keep *my men* (2 boys & hubby) well accessorized...it's my goal to offer to everyone else on etsy too. I love custom work...convo me with your ideas! I am a glass artist as well and love to combine metal with the glass for cool one of kinds (leather too!)

Thanks~

I love the idea of making something for a guy too. I make jewelry, but I think I will try my hand at some belt buckles. I have always liked them and both sexes can wear them! Thanks for the idea! Kathy
