OUR STORY Quince was started to challenge the existing idea that nice things should cost a lot. Our mission was simple: create an item of equal or greater quality than the leading luxury brands and sell them at a much lower price. OUR VALUES EVERYONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO AFFORD NICE THINGS. Quality shouldn't be a luxury. We're proud of our mission to bring the world's highest quality goods to people at affordable prices. QUALITY IS MORE THAN MATERIALS. True quality is a combination of premium materials and high production standards. WE FOCUS ON THE ESSENTIALS. From the perfect crewneck sweater to hotel quality sheets, we're all about high quality essentials that bring enjoyment to daily life. WE'RE INNOVATING TO MAKE UNREAL PRICES A REALITY. Our uniquely developed factory-direct model lets us offer exceptionally high quality goods for much lower prices than our competitors. ALWAYS A BETTER DEAL. We believe in real price transparency, for both our customers and factory partners. This way, everyone gets a better deal. FAIR FACTORIES. We are committed to working with factories that meet the global standards for workplace safety and wage fairness.
