I have been shopping there lately as their clothes fit me well, are affordable and look good. Well, they're affordable at the factory outlet store in Grand Prairie anyway.

I noticed though that most shoppers in there are pretty young. Is it supposed to be a young persons store? I don't really care, but just wondering.

Just have to look at the advertising/marketing too see who their primary target audience is.

Congrats on not being a lolfat as an adult. My wife and I can still shop there too.

It is a store for 90 lb soy betas and their anorexic girlfriends who are under 25 or olds who think they are still cool.

I did have to go one size up on some things, but generally the fit is pretty good.

Music really loud? No? Then not a young person store.

You're shopping at an up-scaled Gap, which is an up-scaled Old Navy.

But if they sold XXL fishing shirts would you shop there?

Can you please go through and list any major life decisions you've made up until now. I want to make sure I don't make any of those same mistakes; I'd hate to end up shopping at outlet stores and needing Mexican dental work when I'm your age.

I always laugh at their way overpriced men's dress clothes while my wife shops BR Outlet when we go to Tanger.

I don't shop at all, but the BR Outlet is a lower quality product than the main BR stores. Same goes for J.Crew vs. J.Crew Factory.

I always laugh at people who don't know this. It's pretty obvious - enjoy your polyester dress clothes!

I buy all my husbands dress shirts there. He likes the slim fit.

Side note: I shop there occasionally so I'm not an lolfat!!

I haven't been there in forever, but it used to be Old Navy was for 12-15 year old range (and poor white trash adults), Gap was for 16-22 year olds and Banana Republic for young adults.
