Once I let an old Navy guy put his Republican banana in my gap. Does that count?

:Q

You've just got to be too good for a republican banana!

Well, since my wife is a manager of an Old Navy store, my whole family wears nothing but ON stuff (well, except for my Levi Jeans).

BTW, "Mickey" Drexler is neither as of last night. The Gap CEO resigned amidst two years of continued disappointing results.

BR, although I haven't bought anything in a while....saw some pants that were on sale from $98 down to $39, but I figured that I have enough nice pants already.

But today, I got a pair of Diesel slip-on shoes (shoes w/o the heel part) for $29! w00t.

Ssshhh! My wife reads these sometimes.
Oh, okay, I am changing my story. It wasn't an old Navy guy. It was an Army Sourpuss.

Well, I wear dress clothing all freaking day, so most of my clothing money goes that way, but I'm a Banana Republic guy when I can.

I buy all my clothes at the Good Will and Salvation Army Stores. Or I get tons of free T-shirts at Career Fairs.

never bought from the Gap, never from Old Navy.

Used to get occasional stuff from BR, and for that matter JCrew.

Used to be into Eddie, but not for last 5 yrs, same for Nautica, same for Tommy, same for Kenneth Cole.

Always been into LandsEnd when needed, and Ralph Lauren, Armani, and BrooksBrothers.

Ok. I admit it. I'm a clothes whore : (

I buy mostly Kenneth Cole. As far as shirts go, nothing beats Banana Republic Stretch Classics though.

i know a lot of people complain about old navy being of poor quality but i've never had any of my clothes from ON wear out or anything. They seem to be of the same quality of at least Gap??? what are you guys talking about??

I buy clothes from all three. If I can get the same t-shirt at Banana Republic for 50% cheaper at Old Navy I have no problem doing that.

some of the clothes i've bought at Target have lasted just as long as anything bought from one of those three. if i would guy clothes from any of those three i would buy some from old navy or the gap outlet store we have down here. i refuse to pay more than $25 for any shirt or pair of pants i buy.

I'm more of the old navy guy. Since i'm usually always at the sale rack. I seldomly buy anything at retail price, UNLESS its a shirt that looks really nice and theres only a few of them in my size, if not, i usually wait till they go on sale.

actually, i rarely have to buy ANY clothes, i get enough clothes from my wife/kids/mother-in-law for birthdays, father's day, christmas, anniversary etc that i really don't have to buy very many
ditto probably 95% of my closet is made up of gifts from my gf or my family. BUT, out of all my clothes, i'd say there's an equal amount of Gap and BR clothes, but the only thing from old navy i own is a cheap fleece jacket and some socks....

all 3, but I only buy stuff from any of them when there's a sale of some sort, or when I have a gift certificate... sometimes the Banana Republic stuff can get as cheap as Old Navy stuff. that's when I buy it.

I don't buy any of them. I wear Dockers pants/shorts and they are always on my christmas or birthday gift list so I don't pay for them.

None of them sell clothes big enough for me - not that I would voluntarily enter any of those consumers' ghettos...
