An anonymous reader writes: Fans of male fashion rejoice, a growing and popular shopping startup is now your stomping ground. If you haven’t heard of Copious, you’re behind. The company is working to build a social commerce platform, fostering sales between real folks, not what it would call ‘strangers.’
Yes, it has strong Facebook integration. You can barely get rid of the app once you integrate it into your profile on the social giant.
Copious sets itself apart by focusing on your taste profile. As you might expect, the more you use the service, the more it learns from you; your preferences build, and Copious helps find what fits you like the proverbial elbow-high glove.
However, until now, half the human race has been all but shut out by the platform. No more. Today Copious is branching out its service to include a number of male-specific, or at least weighted, categories that should appeal to the lot of us who don’t wait in bathroom lines. Yes Barney, you can have the highest of fives.
I’m being slightly unfair, as the new product niches that the company is announcing today are more than simply male-specific, but it’s not had to see them as inclusive to a new sex. From its release, the new categories include “men’s vintage, new and closet items, as well as art featuring photography, home decor and design.”
