I have several GAP items in my 18 month son's wardrobe.
These items always wash well and right up until they go onto the 'grown out of' pile they always look as good as new.
However, recently I watched a television programme about 'Sweat-Shops' in the third world and the main culprit was GAP which uses Indonesian workers to make all of their garments, for adults and children. It has left me with a bit of a bitter taste in my mouth. GAP pay PENNIES for their items to be manufactured, yet continue to charge the earth for the same items.
I also find the choice is somewhat limited - you can buy a pair of socks in every colour of the rainbow, but are limited to a choice of two or three types of shoe.
I think it is time GAP reviewed their manufacturing process to be more in line with the prices they charge.
