About the Banana Republic brand

The Banana Republic brand was founded in 1978 on the initiative of Mel and Patricia Ziegler, a couple interested in traveling. Their designs were very much related to their travels and their shops were set up in a safari style. A few years after its founding, the company was bought by the GAP concern, to which it belongs to this day. Then Banana Republic underwent rebranding, becoming a mainstream luxury brand. Today, the company is extremely well-known and has an extremely large number of locations - 500 in the United States alone, another 40 in Canada and over 60 outside North America. The brand will enjoy well-deserved success and millions of people around the world are die-hard fans. Below, we have prepared detailed size charts of Banana Republic for you, both for men and women.

The history of the Banana Republic brand

The first Banana Republic boutique was opened in 1978 in California. The brand's specialty was clothing combining fashion and functionality, perfect for travelers, but also suitable for everyday occasions. In 1983, the rights to the Banana Republic trademark were acquired by the Gap Inc. group, leaving the current owners to the position of chief designers. Inspirations from distant trips translated into a universal safari chic still appear among the Banana Republic offers for women, but the brand also offers clothes and accessories suitable for every occasion - from a business lunch to an evening at a fashionable club.
