DEI at Threadless

Diversity & Inclusion

We are dedicated to creating an anti-racist and inclusive environment for our employees, artists, and community. We understand that this is an ongoing process for us as a company, and we continue working towards making Threadless a welcoming place for everyone, regardless of their race, gender, sexual orientation, or ability. Some of the practices that help us create a more equitable environment include prioritizing underrepresented artists and hosting DEI workshops for our employees.
