Update your wardrobe with these 9 must-haves from Amazon
Another day, another industry conquered by Amazon. Last year, Walmart was the no. 1 seller of online apparel, but Amazon dethroned it. Wells Fargo’s research found that Amazon’s footwear and clothing sales shot up by 15% in 2020, outpacing Walmart by around 20%.
Altogether, apparel and footwear sales netted Amazon around $41 billion, the report said. And those numbers are just from January to June. It’s estimated that Amazon will rake in a total of $45 billion from apparel sales alone by the year’s end.
Its success is largely due to the high-quality items that appeal to many consumers. If you plan to grab some clothes or shoes, try Kim’s five insider pro secrets to making the most out of Amazon. We also put together some of the best apparel items you can buy on Amazon, so you can spend less time scrolling through the endless options and more time grabbing the goodies you need!
