I think that old navy is an alright store, but I dont shop there, I had the chance to buy my boyfriend these hott pants from there and a zip up hoodie, but instead i got him something more from heart….why would you even bother to shop at Old Navy, Levi Strause, GAP, and Nike. Poor little hopeless families are getting paid maybe at the bare maximum of $9 a week, so we can have cool and hip clothing, think again, what if that was your child and your family in that third world country? would want them to have to sit there day in and day out making all these hella nice clothing and get a measly $9 a week?? I dont think so. So the next time you want to go get some cute jeans that make your ass look hott or that shirt that actually makes you look like you have nice boobs, think of the poor hopeless families that slaved to make those clothes for you and what they get paid to make them. We need to put a stop to sweatshops….

Thank you Estriata for the information about Calvert – that is very helpful because I try to shop more at socially conscious companies.

I also used to work at Old Navy, and the reason I write is simply because there’s a song that is stuck in my head from there summer in store CD. I don’t know what it’s called, but it’s kind of jazzy and fast, and the chorus is ” ’cause all I do is think about you.. all I do… is think about you.” I have already tried every combination of those 7 words to find it. It was on the same CD as Overjoyed I think. PLEASE HELP!!!!

Tell you what – You all need to find something else to occupy your time other than crapping on stores like Old Navy. If you’re SO concerned about the environment and labor conditions in other countries, why don’t you tear yourself away from your computers for awhile, get off your hippie asses and do something about it? You know why? Because you can talk and talk and talk and say how TERRIBLE everyone else is, and how you’re for these causes, but in reality, you’re just like the people you claim to despise. And if you don’t like the clothes that Old Navy offers, or you HATE working there enough to advertise it to the world, open your own damn store and make your own goddamn clothes. But just make sure you don’t get really popular, because you’ll be the next company that has to use people in third world countries to help you make all the shit you sell, you tree-hugging hippie bastards.

p.s. You’d better take a look at the clothes you’re wearing right now – chances are they’re made in the same conditions as any that come from Old Navy. I hope they are – and that you have to start walking around naked because you don’t support what clothing companies are doing. While you’re at it, I hope you starve because you just can’t eat ANYTHING that was once a living animal. Ooh, and at the same time deal with an unwanted pregnancy that you can’t do anything about, all while patting yourself on the back for having such strong convictions and making this world SUCH a better place just by being alive.

Oh, and if you’re going to post something on the Internet for everyone to see, learn how to spell. Come on people, at least try to mask your ignorance a little bit.

I would NEVER shop there. Style wise, yuck. It’s too Landsend for me (’nuff said). And with everyone else shopping there you end up looking like a clone. Too bland and indistinct.
