I bought men's sweatpants several (maybe 3 or 4) years ago. They have been washed many times and still look good.

ON used to be a very popular store when our kids were in school. DH and I would shop for ourselves sometimes too. The kids are all adults now and on their own. I can't remember the last time I was in and ON store or even looked at their website. Maybe I should take a look.

I buy all my basic modal tees there: nice quality, good wear and usually on sale.

I bought some tees for myself during the Fourth of July sale and I've been very happy with them. Washed in cold water and hung to dry, they're holding up well. Cute, too. (And for what I paid, it would still be a good deal even if they don't last forever.)

I buy lots of clothes from Old Navy. In general, the materials are thinner than other more expensive brands. And they don't last as long (maybe one or two seasons). They don't fall apart after one or two seaons, but they just look really worn and tired. So, I'll recommend buying them if you like them and the price is right, but don't expect them to last for many years.

I'm not really crazy about Old Navy, I find the quality of the clothing is sub par, I rather shop at The Gap.

I don't need my clothes to last and last, as I change my look, so that's not too important

but I have some ON stuff that's held up just fine,

I agree. ON sleeves run short. The Gap is much better, at least for me

I really like ON. They lean more towards teens overall, but I can still find lots of tees and sweatshirts that are good quality. I especially love their Rockstar jeans. The store isn't Macy's, but they have some great sales and their clothes are cute.

I like Old Navy. And I get tired of clothes long before they "wear out" so a few seasons or years is fine with me.

OLd Navy initially was just a low-end Gap but their quality seems to have improved a bit. I have bought several little sundresses and other summer things for my small granddaughters and they are very cute and some through the washer/ dryer just fine. Price is very good as well. Good sales online which I like also.

not a huge old navy shopper.

i find their clothes to last possibly one year, sometimes not even one year. the colors fade, the materials fall apart, and they stain easily.

they are priced accordingly though.

my children dont even shop there anymore.

When Old Navy first opened I thought their clothes were great quality and lasted. Now when I walk in the shirts are very thin and cheaply made. I purchase jeans there for myself when they have a good sale. I also purchase athletic type pants (not sweats) for my boys due to the sizing availability that Old Navy has which other stores don't. I have a very hard time finding 7/8 and 10/12 size pants for my boys.
