Old Navy was founded in 1994 in San Francisco and is part of the Gap Inc family of companies. The company was started as a way for Gap, Inc to capture a lower budget market. Other companies in the family of brands include Gap, Banana Republic, Athleta, and Hill City. After a few rebrandings, Old Navy is now a one-stop family clothing shop with affordable but stylish apparel, bringing in the most revenue of all the Gap Inc companies with a loyal customer base.

The Good

  • Loyal Customer Favorites
  • Convenient Shopping
  • Affordable Prices and Frequent Sales
  • Caters to Diverse Body Types and Shapes

Loyal Customer Favorites

Loyal Old Navy customers rave about the company’s line of workout clothing, as well as its school uniform options for children. Our reviewers claim that the quality and fit of these items rival those of much higher-priced brands. Customers especially appreciate the savings on children’s uniform items, considering that those items must be replaced often as children grow.

Convenient Shopping 

Old Navy has more than 1,000 retail locations, as well as an easy-to-navigate website that allows customers to purchase from the other Gap brands at the same time and pay all at once. Old Navy also has a robust app that allows you to shop and choose to ship or pick up items at your local store, as well as store your receipts and your credit card information. 

Affordable Prices and Frequent Sales

Our reviewers love Old Navy’s affordable prices. The company caters to customers who love a good deal, and Old Navy delivers. Loyal customers who return often will benefit from the Old Navy Cash program, where customers receive store credit for a purchase at a later date, usually within the next month. Customers who purchase items that go on sale shortly after don’t have to worry about buyer’s remorse. The company offers a one-time price adjustment within 14 days of purchase.

Old Navy offers frequent sales and markdowns and is known for seasonal sales such as Black Friday, including doorbusters. Clearance items are regularly reduced, offering out of season or surplus items from prices starting at .99 cents, and many basic items such as jeans are frequently marked down 50 percent (in the $15–$20 range).

Caters to Diverse Body Types and Shapes 

Old Navy offers a wide variety of basics, including styles, colors, and fabrics that complement each other and comprise wardrobe staples. Customers appreciate the brand’s established line of plus size women's clothing. Shoppers can find clothing designed to fit both tall and petite frames. Jeans and pants are available in slim or curvy fit to appeal to customers with a variety of shapes.

The Bad

  • Return Policy 
  • Complaints About Product Quality

Return Policy 

Old Navy offers a 45-day return policy. Some frustrated customers do not feel this is enough time, especially because other stores such as Walmart or Target offer 90-day terms. Also, if you don’t have a receipt or items lack tags, customers only get store credit and at the sale price if the item has been marked down. 

Although this policy is problematic to some customers, other clothing retailers like Ross have similar policies, so it isn’t out of line with industry precedents. To mitigate issues with returns, customers can link in store receipts to the mobile app to avoid any reduction in return value.

Complaints About Product Quality 

Several one-star and two-star reviews mentioned that customers were disappointed with the quality of some Old Navy products. Customers mentioned issues with fabric pilling and rapid deterioration of the items during initial use and wash. It’s possible that the company’s dedication to a low-price point may mean sacrificing quality of materials. Customers who appreciate the company’s brand can look for higher quality items — at higher-price points — at the Gap and Banana Republic, both of which are part of the brand family.

The Bottom Line

Old Navy is one of the best options for family apparel. The brand offers an impressive selection of products at low prices. There is something for everyone in the family, and many shoppers enjoy purchasing matching or coordinating outfits for multiple family members for special occasions such as Christmas pajamas, holiday outfits, and family pictures. The company has excellent options for school uniforms, workout apparel, jeans, and plus size clothing. 

For the best deals, take advantage of the company’s frequent sales and promotions. Customers should also pay attention to the return policy and option for one-time price adjustments. If you are looking to invest in quality pieces that will be in your wardrobe for years, you may want to look at the Old Navy’s higher-end family of brands, including Banana Republic. But if you’re looking for a great price on wardrobe basics, you definitely want to take a look at Old Navy.

My go to apparel store for years and years. First and foremost, I'm a terrible shopper. I HATE to shop! Old Navy, however, make it bearable for me. The way the store is organized and the items are displayed is stressless, I don't have to dig and go thru gazillions of carousels and stands. I can see most of the styles right in front of me. Fabrics - are almost always nice and natural - I don't do Polyester, only cotton, and Old Navy are really good about it. Sizing - My size is always the same across the different departments at the store, which also makes it easy to order online. The styles are updated and fun, yet classy and timeless. Lastly Prices! - there is always a good deal on something!!! And if not, you still don't have to break the bank.

Old navy has simple good fitting clothes. Subdued colors and earthy tones that I like. Their kids line of clothes and shoes are durable and practical. You get a good value for your money at old Navy and they always have sales and promotions. I love their Fourth of July clothing . No other clothing store promotes as many patriotic selections as old Navy.

I prefer shopping at Old Navy for their pretty customer service and all the affordable clothes. Last week while visiting my Grandfather I bought a shirt for him from Old Navy. And it was just perfect and he was very happy. I usually bought all my summer clothes from there. They offer me the good products that I can afford peacefully. I loved Old Navy.

Old Navy has been my go-to store since I was three-years-old, I am now 20. The deals are more than affordable and they have pretty much everything such as khakis for school clothes, summer dresses for summer parties, and nice blouses for the workplace. Old Navy has always had nice and kept stores, regardless of location. Every time I need to go school shopping or shopping for work clothes, I always visit Old Navy because the prices are great.

Love the Old Navy website. Easy and quick. The local store, not so much. It's very messy, clothing tossed everywhere, display tables are an exersize in "where's waldo". Associates are not available on the sales floor. They are only found up at the registers. On the rare occasion when you do find an associate in the wilds of the sales floor, they are helpful, kind and willing to help.

I really like Old Navys website. I like how easy it is to navigate and all of the options available. I like the consistency in their clothing and sizes, that is not always the case. I can usually find something for my whole family. They offer tall options online, which is nice for my husband who is well over 6 ft tall. I also like that it is easy to return anything to the store that we don't want. There are always sales or discounts offered for online purchases as well.

Oh Old Navy... where do I begin. ON has recently been seriously killing it. Their fall and winter releases are adorable. I shop for myself, my husband, AND my baby there. My favorite cardigan in the world is from ON. Their denim selection is solid and I LOVE that they have petite lengths. Some of my favorite ankle boots are from ON. Their sales are fabulous. If I could pick one store to shop at for the rest of my life, it would be this perfect place. If it were a person, I would marry it.

Old Navy has been one of my favorite stores for a number of years. One of my favorite things is the sales that Old Navy has at the end of each clothing season. I have been able to buy up to 9 items for $70. That is amazing! I have purchased many jeans from the website and I have loved them. I have also purchased them for my fiancé and they are a nice-looking jean that fits well. I love the quality of clothing provided and have never had a problem making returns when they were necessary. I would recommend Old Navy to anyone who is looking for clothes on a budget. Go right after the season is finished and the sales will be amazing!

Old Navy is hands down the best place to find jeans. With hundreds of different styles and sizes, this is the perfect place to find pants that fit just right. I have very long legs and regular pants hit above my ankles. When shopping at Old Navy though, I can easily purchase "tall" in a variety of colors and styles for a very good price.

I absolutely love Old Navy. I buy all of my work pants from there. They always have great deals for someone like me....who has to buy like 4 and 5 pairs of pants at a time for work because of how much I work. Their pants fit great on me too! I always recommend them to my employees when they are where to find khaki pants or shorts for work!

Old Navy clothes fit my family. The physical fit, and the style fit are both winners. We are able to update items seasonally and also have favorites in jeans or workout clothes. The prints and details are great and current. The whole family coordinates are a blessing. And the sales are fabulous! A lot of boxes checked for us! Thanks Old Navy.

I love Old Navy because you can buy clothes online or in-person they always have sales. What I don't like is that the boy's shirts are too short, it needs to be a little bit longer especially when buying large or XL but otherwise than that it's a great store.

Reliable old navy. When I’m looking for something specific especially basics I go to old navy first either online or in store. It usually never fails me. It’s good for kids clothes that are changing every time and price and sales always a plus. I wish there was ship to store because there’s rarely availability to pick up for me or it’s at many different stores it’s not worth it. Or free shipping would help.

I love old navy so much. It is the perfect place to buy clothes for my kids. I don't have to break the bank, I get so many clothes for a killer price, and though they do shrink and they may be a little bit more cheaply made (you get what you pay for) I love that! I don't want to put super nice clothing on my kids who are going to play and wear the heck out of them. They're the perfect play clothes and they are cute to boot!

Old Navy is my go-to place to shop for my children. Their clothes are not cheaply made, and based on the material can be worn for years. Old Navy is considerate of parents and families, by always having deals on kids wardrobe, shoes and other accessories. My children loves their pajamas in particular because they are very warm and comfy, but also stylish. They always have alot of options for us to choose from in all areas, and I love the holiday time when they have the best pajamas and the best price.

love there online as well as the local store i love things a bit on the long so you can get ladies tall shirts and its amazing. the kids clothing online is also priced so reasonably when you have kids that go from one size to the next and it feels like overnight it seems they put out quality stuff that can be passed from one child to the next not looked washed out if you follow label instructions and being i have boys they do a number on there clothing but it can still be passed on for at least two more kids. thank you

I love shopping on the website at Old Navy for Jeans! I can find just the right size and color and they can be shipped right to the store for free! I already know that they fit and I can order the right length. When I walk in the store they are already in the bag with my name on it ready to be picked up saving me time and money. Did I mention the price? It's fantastic! I am always getting compliments from friends about how good they look!

I shop online and in store at Old Navy quite often. In general I like their website and huge selection of items. I do find that they are often sold out of what I am looking for, but their value can’t be beat. I have found darling items for every member of my family at such affordable prices. I like the fact that they have options online for tall people as I have one daughter who is quite tall. They ship relatively quickly and almost always have some free shipping promotion going on.

This is one of my all time favorite stores. Especially when it comes to finding dresses and short shorts. Great price always has a good selection! They always have sales going on which makes shopping there even better! Good styles. Checking out is pretty fast and they are easy to work with. I had to return some stuff that I got online and it wasn’t working and they made sure to fix what was going on and to give me the right amount of money back!

Old Navy is an excellent value for the money. We shop at their stores and thru their website several times a year. I think it is wonderful that I can order from my home in a small Alaskan town, and have stuff delivered to my door within several days. I put in an order this month, and I honestly feel that I receive good quality clothing for a very good price. When I visit retail stores, I feel that the employees are helpful and it is very easy to make returns if necessary. I will continue shopping there.

Old Navy is one of the best clothing ones out there. Your prices are streaming portable and there are many deals year-round. The organization in their stores and their customer service isn’t the best, that makes up for the ease of access to clothing.
