The Discovery Clothing Company is a great store for budget fashionistas who live in the Chicago area. For less than 20 bucks, you can buy the latest fashion trends and wardrobe staples. What I like about the store is that it’s a viable alternative to the usual trendy budget shopping suspects- H&M, F21, Wet Seal, etc. Want a chain necklace like the one i’m wearing above for less than $10? They got it. Want a wide belt or pair of skinny jeans, but don’t want to spend a fortune? Discovery Clothing Company has them all at their 18 locations throughout Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana.

Hi!
First of all I want to congratulate you for the clothing you offer i’ts great.I want information on how to open a franchise here in Los Angeles California. I want to open a retail business and the first thing I though about is your cloth.One of the reasons is because I usually shop st your stores when I’m in Chicago and the cloth is great dont even mention the prices. Please get back to me if posible. Thank you

I LOVE Discovery. It’s Chicago’s best kept secret. Where else can you find jeans that look exactly like the designer brands for like $20 bucks! I shop there all the time.

I’m sort of confused because from the comments above it seems there is only Discovery fashion stores in Chicago. But there is a store named Discovery in the Milwaukee area so I was wondering is this the same Discovery store or there just happends to be two different amazing stores named Discovery that are not affliciated.

Discovery sounds amazing, but i’ve never been there. But i am trying to find the time to go. Other than that, my only problem is that i cant find a site where it accually shows and advirtises some of the clothing. I’m not sure if Discovery has one at all, but I would really like to see more clothing that they have before going there, if i get the chance to find the site before i find the time to go. And DiscoveryClothing.com doesn’t show too much….

I just love Discovery. Discovery and Dots were my big hits. Sometimes I’d scrounge around walmart.
But now I’m living in texas… I wonder, what are some places to shop here like discovery?
DISCOVERY, come to texas! I love y’all!

Has anyone heard about opening a Discovery franchise store ? I love the store & have a perfect location for a new one. I’ve tried emailing through the website but never got a response back. If anyone has please let me know.
Thanks

My sister and I randomly stopped by one of your stores today because we saw a grand opening sign out front and never heard of the store. Sooooo glad we did! We spent two hours just browsing, you have tons of stuff! Prices are great too! Thank you for coming to Appleton Wisconsin, I think you are going to do very well there 🙂

Hi! I am a discovery employee and have been for 3 years now. Thanks for all the positive feedback! Discovery is an amazing business but unfortunately Kenny n Jeff do not franchise. The company is expanding and now we have 1 store in Florida, 2 in Wisconsin, 1 in Indiana, and dozens in the chicagoland area. We appreciate every last one of you! Thanks for shopping with us. Become a fan on Facebook or follow us on twitter to receive special promotions and offers! 🙂
