Designed for Adventures Near & Far

OUR JOURNEY

In 1978, Banana Republic opened in Mill Valley, Calif. as a shop for people with a passion for adventure and expedition wear from faraway places. Our founders were two progressive entrepreneurs who embodied the pioneering spirit of San Francisco. They loved to travel to collect the surplus clothing that outfitted the store and offered a unique, award-winning travel-oriented catalog referred to as a travelogue—to appeal to the “adventurer” in all of us.

In 1983, San Francisco-based Gap Inc. saw something special in Banana Republic and brought it into the Gap Inc. family, with a promise to keep its unique spirit alive.

Today, Banana Republic is a premier destination for timeless clothing with a modern twist, designed for adventures near and far. Rooted in our explorer spirit, Banana Republic continues to be an iconic global lifestyle brand, revered for its innovation and unique expression.
