So it's like a Members Only jacket from back in the day, but without the sweet sweet bragging rights of that logo?

BR Factory is not BR. Quality is trash, not a deal at any price.

Wish SD staff would stop posting this crap

Maybe, let people buy what they like? And not tell them what you think they should and shouldn't like? Wild concept, right? Bigger issue here is how is 30 for a light sweatshirt a deal? Not BR factory not meeting your opinion of acceptable clothing.

Nonsense. I bought a couple of jackets for 20 bucks, and they were a steal at that price. Are they worth their full $200 MSRP? Hell no. But they are a great for under $30.

Don't listen to people like that.

BR Factory is an outlet for past season items.
Are they worth sticker price? I'd say no but last time BRF had a clearance a few months ago I got some quality stuff for affordable price. Grabbed a nice winter coat too that was nicely marked down.

People like that saying BRF is trash must be a competitor, or overseas vendors who can't compete with BRF quality or its marked down prices.

Judging by the comments some people don't understand that banana Republic factory is not old season banana Republic...it's clothing made specifically for the factory. It's lesser quality than banana Republic. There's nothing wrong with that, but you do get what you pay for.

This is factually incorrect. As the poster above me also stated:
Long gone are the days where "Factory" (such as Gap Factory, BR Factory, etc.) outlets sell out-of-season or overstock merchandise. Now, it's all cheaply-made "fast fashion" that hides under the known branding but uses much more inferior components to their regular lines.

I got some great looking threads from their last sale a couple of months ago.
