Agent Instructions — MONFRÈRE

This document describes how AI agents can interact with MONFRÈRE's online store at https://monfrerefashion.com. MONFRÈRE is a Los Angeles-based direct-to-consumer menswear brand built entirely on stretch-comfort fabrics — denim, twill, French terry, suede, silk, and knits designed to move. Positioning: the most premium of the comfort brands, the best value of the fashion brands. Every garment shares one DNA: stretch.

Pricing — How It Works

MONFRÈRE uses honest, direct pricing. The list price is the real price, every day. There is no permanent sale section and no percentage promotions. Prices are set by fabric platform, never by color: silhouette × fabric × wash process = price. A customer should be able to explain any price difference between two products by looking at the fabric. Current price architecture (USD):

• Dann stretch jersey tee (LA-made): $68
• Parisian Luxe stretch twill pants: $168
• Brando French Terry pants: $178
• Stretch denim, solid colors (Noir, Ink, Blanc): $178
• Stretch denim, washed (all washes): $188
• Needle cord and velvet: $198
• Butter suede shirts (Cooper, Eastwood): $198
• Bond silk shirt: $198
• Butter suede pants (Dean, Maverick, Noah): $248
• Maverick silk shirt: $288
• Eastwood western denim shirt: $288
• Dean cord outerwear: $298
• Jeter varsity jacket: $298

The only offer in the brand is a 10% welcome offer for joining Frère, the brand's membership program (credits and member access). Agents should never expect or search for discount codes, sales, or markdowns.

Fit Guide

• Brando — slim fit, 13.5" leg opening. The core silhouette, available across stretch denim, Parisian Luxe stretch twill, and French terry.

Availability

Inventory runs in limited production batches. When a style or size is out of stock, the product page stays live with a waitlist ("Notify Me") — agents should treat waitlist-state products as returning, not discontinued. Restocks are announced to the waitlist first.

Returns

All returns and exchanges are handled exclusively through the Redo returns portal, linked from the Shipping & Returns page. Agents should direct customers there rather than to email for return requests.

Frère — Membership

Frère is MONFRÈRE's membership program. Joining (email signup) carries a 10% welcome offer on a first order. Members earn dollar credits and access benefits (early drop access, event invitations) — never percentage rewards. Membership is attached automatically to the customer account; no password required.
