I love the quality and the look of the fashion at Banana Republic...as you look at the shirts, pants, jackets, etc, you can tell that they are well made and that they will last for a long time. I usually shop for sales and clearance items, when you can get even a better deal. Also, if you sign up for their emails, you get a welcome coupon and periodic offers..not a bad deal.....
Banana Republic is an upscale clothing and accessories retailer owned by the Gap.
It was founded in 1978 by Mel and Patricia Ziegler, who originally called the company "Banana Republic Travel & Safari Clothing Company". The original concept for the company was to sell items that complement a safari and travel lifestyle. In 1983, Gap purchased the company, changed the name to "Banana Republic," and rebranded the stores to achieve a more upscale image.
The company operates more than 500 Banana Republic stores in the United States (including Puerto Rico), 40 stores in Canada, and 61 stores beyond North America.
