JazX,
what have you got against BR?
Besides the fact that I worked there for over a year part time, they make clothes that far less people wear than Abercrombie.
They make clothes that in many cases you have to be confident to wear, in that it's much easier for someone ignorant to fashion to wear the Abercrombie/ American Eagle/Gap/Old Navy look than it is for them to even think of getting in something that fits well and looks respectable.Man, I saw it so many times there, the girlfriend bringing her boyfriend in because she'd like to see him wear something nice and he gets frustrated because he can't find the cargo pants and the logo shirts.
It's hilarious watching unfashionable guys shop when you know their foremost thought is, "Oh my God this will make me look gay."
Sad to say, honestly, that nice clothing still has that stigma for men.But anyhow, I was in BR last week for the first time in a while and it's some of the coolest stuff they've ever had. Really nice suits (finally) best jeans they've had, the shoes are all terrible now, though, and their work shirts and ties are the best yet. And still plenty of decent casual stuff.
look at their web site if you must:

fashion is all subjective and wearing sheer tight shirts is queer. And that is what they have at Banana Republic.

yeah besides, they don't wear that pussy shit up in milwaukee, isn't that right mrdobolina? i sort of look at being in "fashion" like i look at rollerblading.. no matter what you do, you're going to look fruity.. so why bother?

word up, tfs.
those tight turtleneck shirts are weak and phony like a sideshow freak.
I like to look nice, but that trendy shit sucks. I enjoy the classics.

I dont know why some people think its cool to wear it,
If I see somebody sporting that brand than chances are he or she has no brains.
They are paying a lot of money just to advertise their name, and the clothes arent even good..yup, no brains.

Wait Meeklo, are you talking about Abercrombie or BR?
- Meeklo0
Im talking about A&F.
But I dont see the beauty in BR either, but if you would come to me sporting that brand, I wouldnt think you have no brains, just that we have diff tastes thats all
