THE COSTCO WHOLESALE WARDROBE

Caleb Empig

For my very last article of the year, I thought it’d be an interesting idea to put together a whole fit from the shelves of Costco. Especially in Southern California where I’m from, Costco is a haven for bulk deals, super cheap hot dogs and chicken bakes, and random clothes folded into organized piles in the center of the store. I remember on TikTok I saw a random Costco selling Nike sweaters for only 20 dollars. Considering the last hoodie I got from the Nike store set me back around 90 dollars, I’d say that’s a pretty good deal. So without further ado, here’s the outfit I'd be putting together.

First, we have the timeless, Costco Wholesale hoodie. It’s a great statement piece that immediately lets everyone know your preferred choice on where to get basically anything and everything you’ll ever need. The drawstrings make the hoodie adjustable, and the clean white color makes the hoodie a versatile fit for any occasion. Of course, the front pocket of the hoodie is just asking to be filled with trinkets and random junk. So what better to put in that pocket than the very next item?

This 1 ounce 24 karat gold bar will only set you back 2 thousand dollars! And of course, you need two of them, so you’ll be spending just over 4000 dollars on these beautiful, classy, absolutely necessary, gold bars. These gold bars are all the rage, with around 77% of Costcos selling out their stock. Nevertheless, they make a great fashion choice for a number of reasons. You’ll be able to be reminded of your status as a Costco member every time you hold one, and even more than that, you can use the gold bars to see your reflection! A handy mirror in your hoodie pocket is more than anyone could ask for. The next item is also a tad bit pricey, but it’s definitely worth it.

This LV bag goes for just under 5000 dollars, but it’s the perfect container for all the hot dogs, chicken bakes, caesar salads, and Very Berry smoothies that you can carry. In recent years, Costco has been the go-to for high fashion items from esteemed brands such as LV, Burberry, or Costco Wholesale Clothing.

Okay, now that we have the slightly pricer items out of the way, let’s complete the rest of the outfit with some Costco staples. Since it’s getting colder these days, the next item below is the Costco Hilfiger Jacket. Essentially, this is the perfect jacket to ensure you’re keeping warm. Even better, you can layer it over the Costco wholesale hoodie from before.

Now the last two items help to make this fit a bit more classic and stylish. First we have the Wrangler jeans, which go for only just over 20 dollars. And then last but not least, we have these beautiful shoes that are seen below. These mechanized massaging masterpieces make sure all your tension will go away from walking through the aisles of Costco. It may be a bit expensive, but you’ll forget all about the price when you’re basically floating on air with these bad boys.

In summation, I originally decided to write this article because I thought it’d be fun to put together a whole entire outfit from Costco items. To be honest though, I was genuinely surprised at how affordable a lot of these items are. On top of that, Costco has some pretty timeless pieces that anyone could benefit from wearing. If you’re lucky enough to be an esteemed Costco member, I’d run, not walk, to pick up some of these phenomenal items.
