J.Crew Factory Outlets at Loveland

I will be the first to admit it – I am completely smitten with J.Crew. In fact I am a total sucker for J.Crew. Really, they have whipped me into J. Crew submission. If I didn’t have a job, I would wait anxiously at my mailbox for the catalog to fall into my hands every month. Then I would hole myself away, flipping through the pages and thinking about tweed, argyle, and Italian shoes.
Anyway, it was a joyous occasion indeed when I discovered that there is a factory store within a 45 minute jaunt from my home.
Let me explain that the J. Crew Factory Store, like the Banana Republic equivalent, has a great deal of clothing that were made for the factory store (rather than irregulars or overstocks). What this means is it might not be completely up to snuff with the clothing from the regular store. I’ve purchased a lot (A LOT) and I have found that it is good quality but can lack some of the extra detailing that I admire in much of J. Crew’s goods. (e.g., a grosgrain ribbon trim here, silk piping there…) But I have gotten a lot of great clothing, so this is just a word of warning.
Also, they have no shoes or handbags *dots tears away with printed silk-​twill scarf* but their sale selection is always marked down even further from their already quite low prices.
