Why is it called Old Navy?


When we say Old Navy here, we are talking about the clothing store and not one of the branches of the armed forces.

To us, Old Navy looks and feels a bit like The Gap. The difference is the name on the clothing and the prices on Old Navy clothing are lower. In fact, Old Navy was first called Gap Warehouse.

Anyway, why is it called Old Navy when it has nothing to do with the Navy? Once upon time, the founder of Old Navy was in Paris, France and came upon this bar or cafe named Old Navy. The founder simply liked the name and that is why he named the clothing stores Old Navy.

PS. Old Navy is not that old. Old Navy was established in 1994.
