Before buying clothes online, there's a lot you need to know. First, determine your size. While it might seem obvious, many companies don’t provide this information. So you may have to guess.
Also, consider shipping costs. Shipping fees will vary depending on the product you are ordering. You should also know where your package is going. Some items ship directly to the manufacturer, while others go through third-party warehouses. Delivery times can be affected by this.
