Like learning a foreign language, getting dressed takes a little time and effort, but goes a long way toward convincing Spaniards to let you perform their oral surgery. Take a fashionable path to foreign root canals with today’s Groupon for current fashions at American Apparel. Choose between two options:
- For $25, you get $50 worth of in-store merchandise at retail locations throughout Canada.
- For $25, you get $50 worth of online merchandise.
An American-named outfittery founded by a native Montrealer, American Apparel provides customers with an eclectic lineup of prêt-a-porter possibilities constructed to complement the carcasses of average clothes-wearing humans. Cram your closet with the company’s seasonless staples, such as a unisex long-sleeve jersey T-shirt ($23), to ensure an ample supply of comfortable classics that will remain fashionable long after closets themselves have been replaced by hydraulic pants-compression chambers. Fashionable femmes can find familiar pieces recast in new fabrics and colors with an assortment of new knitwear, such as a unisex knit cardigan ($74) and basic T-shirts ($14 and up) provide both guys and dolls with versatile torso packaging. Wool peacoats ($195) and polar fleece pullover hoodies ($55) serve as flattering flesh protectors during long summer staring contests with obstinate air conditioners.
American Apparel pumps out its stylish stock from a seven-story factory sprouting from the fertile earth of Los Angeles, California. An employer of over 1,000 Canadians, the company credits Canadian principles of fairness for inspiring its socially responsible, vertically integrated production model and its systematic aversion to waste, which allows American Apparel to staff its facility with highly paid, smile-wearing workers while keeping its prices low and its environmental impact to a minimum.
In-store prices may vary from those listed online.
