I have been a happy Banana Republic customer for many years.

Why? I bought a pair of pants at their outlet store in the middle of nowhere, only to find that they were defective after wearing them once - the side stitching was falling apart.

Sunglasses aren’t clothes, but as accessories, they fit into the purview of this site.
I’m looking to buy some new glasses as my old ones (a pair of Polaroid sunglasses) recently broke. I wore them almost everyday for the past three years so I they were definitely worth the seventy or so dollars I spent on them. I tried to fix them with super glue, but it didn’t work.

American Apparel is a clothing company based in Los Angeles, California. They pride themselves on being “sweatshop free”.
They company was founded by Dov Charney, a grandchild of immigrant grandparents. I just visited their website and a farewell letter dated September 1, 2009 from Dov to employees of American Apparel. The letter made is sound like they employed many illegal immigrants, but I’m hesitant to assume it as true. Perhaps the employees had temporary work visas which have just expired.
