    Why are the prices of J. Crew jackets so much lower at an outlet mall? J. Crew offers different types of jackets at its outlets. Many assume that the j. crew factory mainly sells unwanted, old stock at a heavily discounted price. J. Crew outlet store sells knock- offs of its jackets and creates a different line of lot ver quality jackets that look similar to that found in the main retail store. They offer huge discounts offers of their jackets to clear the glut of unsold jackets that failed to be bought by their core customers. These discounts led to selling jackets cheaper than similar items in the outlet that are designed to be lower cost. Items sold, both online and in the stores, often use the same print as full-priced, but the fabric is marked differently. J.crew is destroying the quality of its product jackets, and thus so many customers are fleeing from the brand. The outlets are struggling since the sales have dropped in recent years. The firm was also bankrupt.
