Trying Frank & Oak Hunt Club / Select

My experience with Frank & Oak Hunt Club has significantly evolved since I first used it in 2012. Although the fundamental try-at-home service remains unchanged, a variety of new perks have been introduced over the years.

Understanding Frank & Oak Hunt Club

Not Just a Sale Site

Contrary to flash sale sites like GILT, which primarily sell excess inventory, Frank & Oak stands out with its unique approach. The team at Frank & Oak designs their clothing while maintaining direct relationships with manufacturers. This ensures both quality and affordability, with shirts typically priced around $45 and accessories at about $25.

Monthly Themes and Exclusive Clothing

Each month, Frank & Oak introduces a new theme accompanied by a fresh set of clothing. What makes it exciting is the exclusivity – once a set is retired, it’s gone forever.

The Hunt Club Membership

Membership Perks

In 2024, joining the Hunt Club costs just $20 for an entire year, and you can even try it risk-free for 30 days. The key benefits include:

  1. Personal Recommendations: Tailored to your style.
  2. Access to Exclusive Products and Prices: Unique finds that you can’t get anywhere else.
  3. Free At-Home Try-On: Available between the 1st and 7th of each month.
  4. Free Shipping Both Ways: Convenience at its best.
  5. Earn 4% Store Credit: On every purchase you make.
  6. Unlock Gifts: Accumulate points to receive special rewards.

My First Crate in 2012

I still cherish the shirt and bowtie from my first crate in 2012. The personal notes added a special touch to the whole experience.

Frank & Oak Select: A Step Beyond

Select: For Those Who Need Extra Help

Select, a complimentary service for Hunt Club members, is perfect for anyone who finds choosing clothes challenging. The process is straightforward:

  1. Answer Style Questions: About your shopping habits and fashion preferences.
  2. Choose Your Likes and Dislikes: In clothing styles and colors.
  3. Receive Personalized Selections: From a Style Advisor, including five items to try on at home.

My Select Crate Experience

I received a well-curated crate from Select, consisting of two shirts, a pair of pants, and two ties. While these items don’t necessarily create a complete outfit, they are excellent additions to my wardrobe.
