What is in a Name?
For all of the spelling aficionados out there who have been wondering why Skiviez is spelled the way it is, there is a very simple explanation: why be ordinary when you can be extraordinary? Skiviez is a unique spelling for a unique and modern company. Skivvies? While technically it is spelled correctly, it is not memorable. Skivies? A small misspelling, but a big bore.
Besides, there is a lot to be said for spelling things phonetically. 2xist, for example, doesn’t waste any time or energy with the spelling of their hip name, and the logo looks much better on waistbands than “to exist” would. Go ahead – sound it out. “Sss…kih…veez.” I don’t hear an “s” sound at the end of that word.
When all is said and done, however, it doesn’t matter how you spell greatness – skivies, skivvies, or skiviez – Skiviez is the only place you’re going to be able to find the great selection, customer service, and prices that you’ve come to expect.
Skiviez Now Supports Google Checkout
In addition to allowing you to checkout with Visa, Master Card, American Express, Discover, and PayPal, we’ve just finished adding support for Google Checkout. It’s just another one of the incremental improvements that we’re making to our Web site to better serve customers like you.
There’s no additional fee for using Google Checkout, and using it is fast and easy. You’ll still receive helpful notification e-mails from our Web site but won’t have to re-type all of your personal or financial information during checkout. In fact, in our tests most customers can complete checkout via Google Checkout in less than thirty seconds!
If you have suggestions for improvement for our Google Checkout integration, we’d love to hear from you. Just shoot us an e-mail at info@skiviez.com, and we’ll be happy to take your suggestions.
Thanks for shopping at Skiviez!
UPS shipping options are now available to many countries
You asked for more shipping options, and we listened. We’re proud to announce that we’ve integrated UPS shipping methods into our Web site and have made them available to many countries around the world.
Some of our customers had told us that they prefer one carrier over another, and so now we give you options—in fact, our United States customers have a whopping nine shipping options to choose from.
Our international customers can now choose a UPS Worldwide Expedited option, and Canadian customers can choose the UPS Worldwide Saver option as well.
Happy shopping (and shipping)! Check out our shipping page to see what shipment methods are available for your country.
Welcome to the new Skiviez Web site!
You may have noticed a few changes on our Web site. We’ve been listening to your feedback over the past year, and we’re excited to unveil the latest revision of our Web site, which incorporates much of your feedback.
The most obvious change is a new design for the site. We think that this design makes the site easier to read and navigate since we’ve removed a lot of clutter and lines from the interface.
Another major improvement is a simplified and streamlined checkout process. We admit that the old checkout process could be a little confusing—depending on whether or not you were a new customer or a returning one, you saw a different sequence of checkout pages. And many people didn’t like being asked to log into their account straight out of the gate. We feel we’ve addressed both of these issues in the new checkout, which we think is faster, simpler, and easier to understand.
You asked for alternative forms of payment, so we’ve added PayPal as a payment option. Even though we store all customer and payment information in a secure environment according to industry-accepted standards, we understand that some customers can get nervous over the idea. When you use PayPal, all of your financial information stays at PayPal, and you save time because you don’t have to re-enter all of that information on our Web site.
We’ve also made a boatload of small improvements to various areas of the site. These changes include prominently displaying fabric compositions and origin information on product pages and displaying discontinued products within search results. We’ve also added this blog, which we’ll use to let you know about Web site upgrades as well as upcoming sales. We’ll also answer some questions that our customers commonly ask us, such as why a particular product is so frequently backordered.
Finally, we’ve made a host of behind-the-scenes technical improvements to the site. While you can’t directly see the results of these changes, you’ll notice an overall performance increase in the Web site.
If you have any questions or are experiencing a problem, please contact us. Have questions about some of these changes, or have some ideas for a future revision? Send us feedback, or shoot an e-mail over to blog@skiviez.com.
