A charge from Menitself.com on your credit card or bank statement is a payment to an online men’s clothing store based in Thornton, Colorado, that sells shirts, accessories, and other apparel through its website. The store’s terms state that “all purchases are one-time purchases,” so the charge is not a subscription or auto-renewal; it almost always traces back to an order placed by you or someone with access to your card.1menitself.com.

Why the Charge Might Not Look Familiar
Billing descriptors rarely match the name you remember from checkout. Online stores can appear on statements under a shortened URL, a parent company, or the payment processor’s label. Before you treat the line item as fraud, check with anyone else who uses the card and search your email for an order confirmation from the store.
There is one other possibility worth knowing about. Stores running on the WooCommerce platform, which Menitself.com uses, are known targets for “card testing,” where automated scripts push small transactions through a public checkout page to see which stolen card numbers still work. These charges tend to be small and arrive in clusters, and they are initiated by outside actors rather than by the store itself.2WP Tavern.

Customer service can confirm whether the charge matches a real order and start a refund if it does not.3menitself.com. Shipping Policy
If the charge is tied to an order you placed and want to return, the store accepts refund requests within 30 days of delivery, as long as the item is unused and unworn with original tags and packaging. Sale items, gift cards, and anything marked final sale are excluded. Approved refunds go back to the original payment method within 10 business days. If an order never arrives within 30 days or the stated maximum delivery window, you can request a free replacement or a full refund.4menitself.zendesk.com. I Would Like to Get a Refund for My Order
Dispute the Charge With Your Card Issuer
If the merchant will not resolve it, file a dispute with your bank or credit card company. The Fair Credit Billing Act protects cardholders against unauthorized charges and billing errors, including goods never delivered or items materially different from what was described.5Federal Trade Commission. Using Credit Cards and Disputing Charges
To keep full legal protection, your written dispute notice must reach the card issuer within 60 days of the date the first statement with the charge was mailed. Include your name, account number, the transaction date and amount, and the reason for the dispute. Certified mail with a return receipt is the safest way to send it, though most issuers also accept disputes through their app or website.5Federal Trade Commission. Using Credit Cards and Disputing Charges
Once the dispute is filed, the issuer has to acknowledge it in writing within 30 days and finish the investigation within 90 days. You are not required to pay the disputed amount or related finance charges during that window, and the issuer cannot report it as delinquent.6HelpWithMyBank.gov. Disputes and Unauthorized Charges Federal law caps your liability for unauthorized credit card charges at $50.5Federal Trade Commission. Using Credit Cards and Disputing Charges
Debit cards work differently. Notify your bank right away. Report the charge within two business days and your liability is limited to $50 or the amount of the unauthorized transaction, whichever is less. After two business days, that cap can rise to $500. The bank generally has 10 business days to investigate and must issue a temporary credit if the review runs longer.7Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

If Nothing Else Works, File a Federal Complaint
Two federal agencies take complaints when the merchant and the card issuer both come up short. The FTC accepts fraud reports at ReportFraud.ftc.gov or by phone at 877-382-4357; it does not resolve individual disputes but shares reports with more than 2,000 law enforcement partners.8Federal Trade Commission.
