Nice blog. I've been going through the old posts and ennijoyg them.I've been shopping at J. Crew for over 20 years. Back in college, I used to work at a store that was next door to a J. Crew and would pop in once a week. I have a shirt and a pair of shoes that were both purchased 10+ years ago that I still wear in fact the shoes became my regular office shoes last year after their predecessors gave out. I owned a lot of pieces from them in the 90s, but those are the only ones that I still own.I have 4 shirts that I purchased within the past 6 years, which is what I would refer to as current era J. Crew. The cuts are slimmer, the collars are shorter, and the cuffs are shorter. I like them and they fit well, and wear at least 2 of them once a week.I avoid their sweaters after owning 2 of their cotton-cashmere v-necks from back in 2007. The v-neck was cut very deep, the fabric developed a musty smell after a few washings, and the sleeves stretched out even though I stored the sweaters folded.I agree that the styling in their catalogs can be cringe worthy at times, though more so with the women's looks than the men's. I find that when I visit a store lately, the staff is way over stylized to the point of caricature.Anyway, that's enough of me ranting. Besides, I'll still be shopping there as it's ultimately decent quality at a decent price.
