Gap

I decided to write a review on Gap after visiting the Birstall branch at the weekend. It was rammed, people were literally queuing out of the door and most of them waving a piece of paper in their hands... more on that later! I've shopped at Gap for a good few years, mainly using the Meadowhall or Birstall stores and one of the most redeeming factors is that you can clothe the whole family there. Baby Gap / Gap Kids I am gutted that my son is moving swiftly into the Gap Kids section now as opposed to Baby Gap, he really is growing up! Baby Gap is fab, lots of neutral colours and organic vests and bodysuits which are perfect as ...  Read the complete review

Gap is another easily recognisable brand and retailer which is on many high streets around the Uk and even the world. Originally from America it is classed as a clothing and accesories retailer. Currently there are well over 3000 gap stores worldwide with over 350 in the UK. In the Uk the stores are split into Gap (for adults) and Gap Kids and Baby Gap. The original founder Donald George Fisher passed away just a few days ago on September 27th. He founded the company with his wife Doris in 1969.

While good quality, the standard retail price of Gap trousers and ...  Read the complete review

Overview ------------ The Gap is a worldwide brand with stores in most large towns and cities in the uk. they also have a number of outlet stores across the uk.

I have got to admit, before starting to write this review, I have had a quick flick through some of the other reviews for Gap: I just wanted to see what other people thought of it, and sure enough I was right - Almost everyone else thinks it's the bees knees. Well sorry, but not me. I've been inspired to write this after I went in there again today after a 'gap' (haha) of several years. The first time was around 3 years ago when I went to the large Gap store in Meadowhall Shopping Centre, as I had been recommended their dark denim jeans by a friend. I was with my daughter , who at that time was still in her major buggy (for those who ...  Read the complete review
