I don't like their prices (I am lucky if I spend $15 on a pair of MY pants - I am not going to spend that plus some on a pair of kids pants that is going to get stained, possibly torn, quickly out grown, etc).
Their stuff looks too "big kids" to me - I don't want my kid to look like a mini 16 yr old to me (honestly - this is mostly the boy's outfits they put together for ~ $70 each). Their boy baby stuff is better, but they still have the "16 yr old" outfits for outrageous prices
I also don't like the way they layer some stuff - not for Texas - in my hometown in NY it would be different. And the few times I have given the store a chance in my mall it hasn't changed my opinion.
The Gymboree stuff we have was all free and it is none of the stuff I dislike and all Texas appropriate. The Gymboree sweaters and other heavy stuff lives in boxes for the one cold day we are out in the winter.
Oh, and I like the Target stuff too - The some of the circo brand stuff lasts longer than others. AJ has been in the same shorts for 2 years in a row. I also like Osh Kosh when we can get it at a discount store (Ross, Marshalls, TJ Max)
