What to know about Old Navy
Gap Inc.'s volume engine, not its premium line
Launched in 1994 as the value-priced sibling to Gap, it is now the group's largest brand by revenue, with $2.3 billion in net sales in one recent quarter.
Denim and tees do the work
Jeans and t-shirts are the core, and recent growth has been led by denim, activewear and kids rather than fashion-forward pieces.
A family store, not a wardrobe specialist
Alongside adult basics it carries kids and baby clothing, and is adding accessories plus beauty and personal care to roughly 150 stores.
How Old Navy fits
Overall fit
runs large
Old Navy is widely described as running large due to vanity sizing, so many people take a size smaller than their usual, while noting that fit can vary noticeably between styles and production runs.
Tip: Most shoppers do best sizing down one, especially in tops and denim, though it's worth checking each style since consistency varies.

By category
| Category | Runs | Shape | Size advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hoodies & sweatshirts | runs large | relaxed and roomy with dropped or generous shoulders | Take your usual size only if you want a very loose layer; otherwise size down. |
| Shirts & overshirts | slightly large | regular and slim options both tend to run fuller than the label suggests | Consider the slim fit at your normal size, or size down in regular fit. |
| Trousers & pants | slightly large | relaxed to regular through the thigh, with roomy waistbands | Size down at the waist if you're between sizes, and plan on hemming. |
| Jeans & denim | runs large | generous through waist and seat with clear vanity sizing | Try one waist size down, and expect some stretch-out in cotton-blend pairs. |
| Jackets | runs large | roomy and cut for layering | Size down unless you plan to wear heavy layers underneath. |
| T-shirts & graphic tees | runs large | boxy and relaxed through the chest and waist, even in styles labeled classic fit | Size down one for a closer fit unless you specifically want a loose, boxy tee. |
