Well of course I am

I don't understand why Gap hasn't tried here, lots of hoodies and t-shirts and the like that that kiwi's like to wear!

Mind you, they are opening stores in Melbourne and Sydney in the next few months...

There will apparently be a massive influx into Australia of US & UK stores over the next 12-18 months. Most of these brands have stores already throughout Asia and it's the success over there that has made them also want to expand to Australia. So Gap, Banana Republic, Top Shop, Zara, H&M are all confirmed coming, and M&S are even rumoured.

Would imagine that they would also look at NZ too - if Country Road and Polo Ralph Lauren can survive, then no reason why Gap wouldn't.

The only gap I like, is the gap between me and NZ,

I have just received my first order from Banana Republic (same company as Gap...so they deliver here too). I got a heap of clothes for the same price that I would get a couple of tops and a pair of trousers at Country Road. Quality is heaps better, and I know it will last a lot longer than the stuff you can buy in NZ.
What is wrong with wanting to look nice for work, and at the same time getting better value for money? I certainly will be ordering again from them in near future!
