Historic Thread

Connect a collection

If you have many pieces, forms are the wrong tool. Publish a feed of your garments in the Historic Thread format and the database reads it every hour: new pieces get threads, chapters update, nothing to re-enter. Tell us where the feed lives, or what you have and we will help you make one.

How it works

Your site publishes one JSON file listing your garments and their chapters. Historic Thread fetches it on a schedule, gives each piece a permanent thread page at a short code, and links back to your listing. Update your file and the threads update. Sell a piece and its thread goes with it.

No developer?

A spreadsheet works. Send a CSV with one row per piece and we will turn it into a feed for you while the tooling catches up.

What it costs

Nothing. Reading is free for everyone, always, and so is connecting while the database is young.
