care to explain the term "community-centered online apparel shop" as part of the report....
By stating that Threadless is a "community-centered online apparel shop", we mean that the company focuses on the community (ie. the users) using the website. It is similar to a democratic society where users voice out their views and the company acts on these feedback. Hope that answers your query. Good day! :)
