In a quest to replenish my black slack stash, I ended up at this outlet. Yes, they had the pants I wanted at the regular BR store but no, I was not going to pay $98 for it.
Turns out, this outlet had nothing that the store had. I know...seasons pass and outlets are suppose to have "out of style" items. But, even the material of the clothing I fingered here was suspect. I'd rather pay $98 for something of quality than $50 (not exactly cheap btw) for absolute rubbish.
I know that lots of outlets (Coach, Kate Spade etc) create a separate line that's sold solely at their outlets. I'm assuming BR does that too. Which is fine, except that the selection and quality of items here at this store is pure garbage. When the stitching of a BR garment is shoddy and the material used seems uncomfortable, sirens ring in my head. Banana Republic is my go-to store for my work shopping needs and this outlet is really sullying their dependability.
Close the store down or start having some kind of quality control here. Appalling.
