I didn't know how much I needed a J.Crew Factory store nearby until this store opened. The staff is very nice and always ask if I need any help and want to help as opposed to other stores around that mostly want you to know that they are making sure you don't shoplift without saying the actual words. The store is clean and organized.
Like most factory stores these days, the main retail line is different from the factory. You also have to look beyond the price tags and do the math of what the actual current price is after promotions.
The factory store has the same aesthetics as the J.Crew stores but more practical and reliable. I really like it for basics that I wear everyday like Tshirts and jeans. I find the J.Crew factory quality to be much better than Old Navy, Gap Factory and Banana Republic factory.
Tip: you can get free shipping to your house if you order in store or if you order at home, you can have the items shipped to the store for free. Look out for sales, especially when they have 70% off online sales and use this store as your free shipping option. read more
