Mixed Feelings at TJ Maxx - Great for the Family, Not So Much for Men's Fashion

I recently visited TJ Maxx with my family as we were shopping for clothes for an upcoming wedding and looking for some shorts for myself. The store was bustling with options, and my wife and kids seemed to have a great time picking out what they needed, which was a plus.

However, as a man shopping for fashion, I often find the selections at TJ Maxx (and many department stores, for that matter) to feel like an afterthought. The women's section is always expansive and varied, while the men’s section seems limited and less prioritized. This isn't a new observation, but it's consistently disappointing when you walk into a store hoping to find a wide range of options, only to find limited choices.

This visit reinforced my belief that if you're looking for something specific or of higher quality in men’s apparel, you might be better off at a specialty store. It’s a bit frustrating to feel overlooked in terms of selection and variety.

That said, the overall experience was positive for my family, and the store did provide good value and selection for them. So, while I might have to look elsewhere for my own needs, TJ Maxx remains a go-to for family...

I always get an adrenaline rush shopping at T.J. Maxx. It is my go-to place for reasonably priced, creative and attractive gifts for every member of the family. It's a treasure trove...infant, children and adult clothes, accessories, cosmetics, toys, games, kitchen and home decor; novel food, spices and teas; books and other non-conventional items galore. Clothes are clearly marked by size and unlike so many places that have stopped allowing you to try things on, their changing rooms are open and clean! I did not give 5 stars only because the quality of the clothing is a bit inconsistent and random, and they lack variety for large women. There were no winter coats for plus size women, only flimsy capes and such. Larger sizes often lacked style. There were zippo formal holiday wear for plus size which was very discouraging when noting all the cute things for...

This is the only TJ-Maxx location that isn't employed by uppity-snobs, istg. They're all moderately friendly and clearly enjoy their job and enjoy their teammates they work with, and I have never had to hunt someone down for the jewelry counter or gotten a rude comment from anyone at check out. It's a lot more relaxed of a vibe. I've started shopping here way more often than I ever have any other locations I've lived by- love it here. Always new inventory and the store is very clean and well lit. They're open rather late, too like 10pm, which is killer for those on third shifts just trying to get some shopping in like a normal person 🤣

My only problem is it's sorta a smaller store, so all the sections are like, half of other locations, but they still have a ton of variety in items, just overstocked a bit haha makes it a lil obnoxious to shop...
