Do you buy your shoes at an outlet? Do they hold up as well as retail?

I find that the RL polos in the outlets don't hold up as good as the ones at retail.




This is what motivated this thread. I currently have a long sleeve RL polo tshirt on that was purchased from the outlet store in Gonzales. The quality actually seems to be no different than other RL polo shirts I have bought from Macy's, Dillards, etc..

I haven't bought a pair of shoes from anywhere other than zappos in at least 3 or 4 years..

Well, I did buy a pair of sperry's several months ago from Journey's in store.. But other than that.. I only go to Zappos.

You are obviously trying to make me look stupid, but at the same time you are actually making yourself look like a jackass. Jackass.

In most cases it is the same merchandise

No, the answer is because it's last season's merchandise that didn't sell or was left over. You are getting the "left overs", but that's not always a bad thing.

I guess Gap and Old Navy, its the same company right, but I think both have outlet stores..

They don't make any quality clothes so I guess it doesn't matter

It’s merchandise that doesn’t sell well are the original stores, out of style clothes, or clothes that aren’t in season. This isn’t complicated and not sure why you even need to ask

Also false for the most part. Most of an outlets stock are cheap clothes made particularly for sale in outlet stores.

Most of the stores at outlet malls are a ripoff and you don't get deals.
