25 Basics That Are So Good Nordstrom Can Barely Keep Them in Stock (2024)

25 Basics That Are So Good Nordstrom Can Barely Keep Them in Stock (1)

Here's a shocker to no one: I'm a frequent Nordstrom shopper. During my weekly—often daily—visits to the retailer's site to shop for products I want to feature in my stories (or even treat myself to a little wardrobe update), I've become well-acquainted with their wardrobe basics. So well-acquainted, I might add, that I tend to notice when the stock starts to dwindle on certain items or when they sell out entirely. I decided to put all my knowledge of these best-selling Nordstrom basics to work in this roundup. To no surprise, they all happened to be the ones that come highly rated by Nordstrom shoppers, proving that they really are quite versatile and—above all—affordable.

Based on my findings, I thought it would be silly not to share these popular pieces with you. You might even recognize a few of the T-shirts, tanks, jeans, and shoes you see here since I also have the intel that many WWW readers have bought them, too. The order histories and amazing reviews don't lie. These 25 basics are the real deal. But don't just take my word for it—scroll through the below list to discover them all, and then click in to read the reviews and you might just find yourself so inclined to place an order, too. Happy scrolling (and shopping)!
