GAP
GAP is possibly one of the most understated brands and stores around. The designs are simple, featuring clean lines and timeless wardrobe staples, but with an underlying elegance. In much the same way you keep on wearing that ten-year-old shirt, GAP is also about convenience, functionality, and being right at home. Browse through GAP on ZALORA today to find casual wear for men, women, and kids, such as basic tees, graphic shirts, sweaters, hoodies, joggers, jeans, dresses, and more.
History Of GAP
Gap begins in 1969, when Don and Doris Fisher opened their first store on Ocean Avenue in San Francisco after Don struggled to find a pair of Levi’s jeans that fit properly. Named after the “generation gap,” the store originally sold just two things: Levi’s jeans and vinyl records. By 1974, Gap began creating its own Gap-labeled clothing, shifting from a denim reseller into a true fashion brand. The major turning point came in 1983, when Millard “Mickey” Drexler joined as president and refined the brand’s identity around clean, wearable American staples: 100% cotton T-shirts, denim jackets, hoodies, and classic khakis.
By the 1990s, Gap had become the uniform of everyday American style, turning simple basics into cultural currency through polished stores, famous khaki campaigns, and its signature “wall of denim.” The company also expanded its reach with Banana Republic and Old Navy, creating a retail empire that covered everything from budget basics to elevated workwear. After facing an identity crisis in the 2000s and 2010s, Gap has recently leaned back into its heritage under CEO Richard Dickson and Creative Director Zac Posen, reviving its 1990s spirit with modern denim, premium essentials, and a cleaner sense of casual cool. At its best, Gap proves that a white T-shirt, a good pair of jeans, and the right khakis can still say plenty.

What Does THe GAP Stands For?
Real estate Investor Don Fisher established a store in San Francisco aimed at teens and kids in 1969, offering Levi's blue jeans as well as records and tapes. Fisher originally planned to name the store Discs, but his wife came up with the winning name:"The GAP", shorthand for generation gap.
