Love BR and BR Factory - just don't try to file a claim for a lost package. It took their system 2 days to update so I could file my claim - even though it showed being delivered. Then the third party... See more

Banana Republic great sale items
I recently discovered Banana Republic online sales, and they are terrific! I have found sweaters, pants, blouses, v- necked long sleeved t shirts...all basic, build able pieces, high quality, great fit. If you're looking for cutesy, frilly, one season stuff, this is not your go to. If you like classic, well fitting, super low priced fashion that holds up and that's not going out of style, this is your place.

Not excited
Clothing has been quite mediocre and feels average in wear and design as of late, especially for the men's side. Their partnership with Synchrony Bank and their BR rewards program is good but yikes, their customer service is monotone and lackluster. You can tell they are there to do the bare minimum with no enthusiasm. Not excited to shop there as I used to.
The clothes are very long lasting…
The clothes are very long lasting designs and styles. Price is also very reasonable.
Gap and affiliates
Gap, Banana Republic and Old Navy have great prices but their orders are sometimes mixed up or lost. They are willing to replace or issue credit if needed so you can trust that they care about their customers. Only thing I wish they would do is make their rewards better for loyal customers. The representatives are very knowledgeable and willing to help.
Wrong items sent, poor solutions
Bought two items. When items arrived, one happened to be face masks instead of a sweater. I have to return the item to receive the refund and they won't send a replacement until they receive the item back. The item is now no longer on sale, I'm out of a sweater and stuck with 50 dollars of unused gift card.
Great quality and sales
Seamless shopping and returns experience. Always top quality and at a good price, especially during sales.
Poor shipping and customer service practices
I placed an order through the Banana Republic website on Nov 29 with "promised delivery" on Dec 11. The tracking through USPS showed "pre-shipment" on Dec 1, and then that they received the item on Dec 11. I contacted BR customer service twice and both times they blamed the USPS and basically said "if it doesn't arrive in a few days get back to us". Terrible! I'm not shopping here again. Expect shipping delays and poor customer service.
I love it when I order a piece and it…
I love it when I order a piece and it arrives promptly. That's equally as important as the price and quality. Thankfully over all my orders have arrived quite fast so cheers to that.
No money back for the confirmed retour!

I like them
From 2007-2011 I believe that I spent about $40,000 at Banana Republic. I even visited their luxe store BR Monogram in New York in 2008 and spent thousands. What I loved about BR was that they had a classic yet stylish look to their clothes. They gave you the classic fashionable edge that you couldn’t get from Ann Taylor AND the prices were in-line with the quality. I was fine paying higher prices for the brand. Some time after 2011 their style changed and the quality changed and the prices skyrocketed. I would walk into the store and walk out empty handed. After so many experiences like that I just gave up. After years of absence, last month I decided to order something online from them. I received my order yesterday and I really like the product. But, I can only buy items that are on sale because the prices are still a bit out of my budget and I’m not completely sold on the quality for the higher prices yet.
No customer service no response to emails!
No customer service at all! I have returned a piece of a merchandise a month ago via Canada Post using their prepaid shipping label and until now I have not received my money back! Tried to contact them via email, no response. Tried to call them and have been kept on hold for over an our, no success in getting through. Even though the tracking system shows they have received the merchandise and the message said I should get my money back 2 to 3 days after, I have not been issued a refund yet. Customer beware!
I've been a customer of BR for many…
I've been a customer of BR for many years before they had a wide presence in Canada. Anytime I was in the States, I would be sure to stop at one of their stores and stock up on office essentials (Khaki's, button-downs and sweaters). Then, they merged with Gap, or some other unholy alliance, and a noticeable decline in the quality of the clothing happened. Not so ironically, the quality went down and pricing up... just like the Gap model - low quality, high priced garments (wonder how that's working out for Gap & Co?).
Lately, I only buy from them when they have massive sales. The quality seems to have rebounded for some items - e.g. Khaki's - but the pricing model is crazy. At regular prices, a pair of trousers and a button-down would cost one a pretty significant chunk of change -$345 Cdn. Insanity! BR seem to think they're in the same league as high-end competitors, which they are not. I think they've forgotten their roots and with it their commitment to quality. Now with Amz in the clothing market with Amz essentials and Good threads lines offering decent quality mens clothing at sane prices mere mortals can afford, I hope BR makes some over due changes to their practices. One can hope anyway, and in the meantime it's good to have options.
Good customer service!
No complaints
I don;t like Gap and don;t go to their shop but I was at a loss to find something tartan for a Burns Night. Banana Republic came to my rescue with decent quality trousers and a matching jacket in good fabric with stretch and warmth. I ordered two sizes to try and the one I returned was promptly refunded. Only comment I would add is that it would have been considerably over-priced at the full price but fortunately I got it in the sale.
Banana Repulic has awesome clothing

Slow Shipping
Very slow shipping, No idea why it takes so long for them to dispatch an order? It takes a week to get your order sometimes!
Never again!
Will never order from this company again! I phoned them to find out what had happened to my order and was informed that they tried to deliver part of the order but there was no one in. No card had been left and no email from them informing me of despatch and a tracking number. The only reason I found out was because I had phoned up! Once I had received the tracking number I looked it up and not only had they tried to deliver but previous to that they had to turn back as they couldn't find my address! The company they use is Hermes who are totally useless. Banana Republic are at fault for not only using this company but also for not informing me when the goods are being dispatched I shop online a great deal and have not had this experience with companies like DHL, UPS and DPD or Parcelforce Even Yodel seem to have smartened up their act. However, Hermes are like something from the dark ages! Seemingly the courier has my full order now but won't be delivering it for another week. Unbelievable! A truly frustrating and time consuming experience and I'm still wondering whether I'll ever receive the items. Never again!
