The Five Four Club is one of the new emerging ways to shop for clothing. Instead of spending hours at a store, Five Four gets your measurements and clothing style choice and shops for you. Unlike other clothing subscriptions, the Five Four Club makes their own brand of clothing only available to their subscribers.
Five Four Club Review: How It Works
Five Four Club did a great job streamlining the process of joining up. Customers first step is to take a quiz that will allow Five Four to tailor their clothing specifically for you. The next step is entering your billing details and paying the $60 fee. The $60 gets you around 3 items each month based on the season. I was lucky enough to get 4 items for the first season I signed up for.
Customers can then exchange any of the items for different sizes if they don’t fit. Unlike Trendy Butler or Stitch Fix, Five Four doesn’t allow you to return items you don’t like. I’m not exactly sure how I feel about this. On one hand I am often tempted to return items with Trendy Butler because I have the option. So by removing that choice, I almost end up enjoying my Five Four items more. Check out what I received below and see what you think.
My Five Four Club Items
Check out the items I received below.
Five Four Club Akemi Pants
The Style
I couldn’t have asked for better pants even if I had spent all day trying on clothing. They had the thin legs and comfortable waist that I am always looking for. The color was a little darker than I would have chosen, but it does go well with the shirts that came this month. The only real negative I could find is that these pants are pretty thick and heavy. I live in SoCal so I might have to wait a month or two when it gets a bit cooler.
The Fit
I wear a 34 and the Five Four Club 34 fit perfectly. They hugged my waist nicely without putting any pressure on my stomach. The legs were just loose enough that I could move easily without fear of splitting my pants.
Five Four Club Zacharias Shirt
The Style
I will admit I felt a bit like a lumberjack wearing this shirt, but it seems like that is the current style. Again the clothing is a bit warm for the weather, but a lot of other cities in the US are already getting cooler. The cut is nice and my girlfriend says I look good so overall I am happy.
The Fit
Being tall and thin in the US makes finding button up shirts pretty hard. If the arms are long enough the belly is normally too large. This shirt had long sleeves and a nice thin stomach area. It was a great fit for my body.
Five Four Club Massi Shirt
The Style
I wasn’t the biggest fan of this shirt so I will probably be giving it to my girlfriend. I didn’t mind the pink color but it was a little too loose and baggy for me. I also prefer V-necks over the round front.
The Fit
This shirt was a little too big for my body. I felt like it was too baggy and loose. I might try to put it through the dryer on high heat.
Five Four Club Massi Shirt
The Style
I liked this shirt quite a bit. It isn’t a V-neck, but it did fit nicely and the color was a nice autumn brown. I look forward to wearing this out and getting a pumpkin latte.
The Fit
This shirt fit very nicely, giving me a tight fit with a large range of motion. I do worry that it might shrink a bit when I put it through the wash. I will wash it on delicate at first to be sure.
Five Four Club Review Summary
Overall Rating 9.3
I enjoyed my Five Four Club experience over all. I do feel like I got a good deal for the $60 I spent this month. 1 nice pair of pants and 3 shirts would have easily cost me over a $100 at the store. Everything fit nicely except for one shirt which I could send back for a different size or I might try to shrink myself. Shipping was free and it is very easy to cancel at any time. I will keep trying Five Four until my style changes.
