Haven't been over there in a maybe 6 years. Didn't realize the area around there was that way.

Unless you're in the Horizon's West, Winter Garden, Windermere, or Williamsburg areas of Orange County, most of it has become ghetto. But that's a conversation for another thread

A pretty flippant statement about an entire region without any basis.Unless you're in the Horizon's West, Winter Garden, Windermere, or Williamsburg areas of Orange County, most of it has become ghetto. But that's a conversation for another thread
Turnover is extremely low at Disney Springs. Since opening only a handful of stores have closed, and when they have, it has mostly been a collapse of the entire chain and nothing to do with the individual Disney Springs stores.

I lived there for 5 years until this June. It's entirely accurate and to believe otherwise is silly.

Saw 501's at Costco yesterday for $29.99... lol
He lived there for several years. Not to difficult to see that he was talking about real world experiences.
Yeah but they aren't the same as the higher priced versions sold at the Disney Springs store. Different materials.

And I've lived here for 16 years in an area that according to him is 'ghetto'. He's wrong.
It's fine to decide you don't like a city you live in, I've had at least one location in Texas I didn't like, but it's not okay to blanketly disparage the whole place (and therefore the choices others have made) because you didn't like it.
That's what I'm thinking. Not always the case, but same brand, low priced products are usually lesser quality and made specifically for outlet stores.
Yes that is absolutely the case.

This is pretty much the only brand of jeans I can find that fit me well - although they were a better fit back when they still sold "tall" length jeans that were a little longer with the same waist sizes since I'm pretty much a bean pole. I never bought jeans at the Disney Springs location, though, since I always tend to overpack anyway, but it was nice knowing that they were there if I somehow found myself in urgent need of another pair of jeans while on vacation. Wait, that doesn't sound right. . .

If anyone here would accurately know this, it's you.
I can admit when I'm wrong and you're word is enough for me to recognize that!

It’s all about the value. A $100+ dollar pair of jeans is a good buy if the quality of the denim and workmanship is there.

Having splurged a few times for expensive jeans....
I think I now know better. In the past year, I seriously bought $15 jeans that fit much better than the $100 pair I once bought.
Mind, sometimes quality is worth buying; sometimes it is a scam.
About 10 years back, I bought an expensive dishwasher that turned out to be a piece of junk. From day 1, it was lousy, then it completely broke within a year. (Repair guy said the model was overpriced junk; he'd seen many fail.) I replaced it with one that cost 1/4 the price and it has worked extremely well ever since.
Clothing brands in particular are often a product of marketing over actual quality.
The member have give feedback on actual sections of Orlando that were ghetto. Did you want him to break it down to an actual street address?
