I just went to list a vintage piece of womens clothing and all the sub categories after "clothing" have disappeared, my only choices are "gender neutral adults or kids clothing" or "western clothing" ????? Anyone else seeing this? I literally cannot list anything new as all the categories have different sappeared?
I see 7 subcategories: https://www.etsy.com/categories?segment=selling
I do normally, but my sub categories have disappeared both on my phone and ipad??
I have the same problem. I knit baby clothing and am trying to list a rich pink hooded jacket with flower decorated buttons. I can't get any category other than gender neutral or western (what on earth is that?!!!?). So I can't list at all, it's sitting in my drafts.
OP, western clothing means items generally worn in the Western Hemisphere, such as suits, dresses, jeans, sweaters, tops, etc. The opposite would be items worn in the Eastern Hemisphere such as saris, hijabs, kimonos, etc. I don't know why Etsy would change these categories, but maybe it is because Etsy expanded into the market in India.
Etsy: clothes for genderneutral cowpersons.
