Clothing retailer J.Crew has returned to Johnson County, roughly two years after leaving the area.

The company recently opened a new J.Crew Factory store — J.Crew’s slightly discounted counterpart —in southern Overland Park.

J.Crew Factory opened at Hawthorne Plaza shopping center

  • The store now occupies a space at 4949 W. 119th St., on the southern end of the shopping center.
  • Healthy eatery Eat Fit Go previously occupied the space.
  • The store neighbors Spruce Design Home and Paint Nail Bar.
  • It’s open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday, and from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday.

J.Crew Factory sells “timeless” American-style apparel

  • J.Crew carries multiple clothing items in a variety of brands, like dresses, blazers and cashmere sweaters.
  • Customers can also shop for shoes and accessories like jewelry, hats, gloves and scarves.
  • The company’s inventory offers items for women, men and children.

The company had a Leawood store before

  • J.Crew’s Leawood store used to operate nearby at the Town Center Plaza shopping center.
  • It shuttered at the beginning of 2022 after operating there for more than a decade.
  • Along with the Leawood store, the New York-based retailer closed several more locations at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.
  • On the Missouri side of the Kansas City metro, J.Crew has another store at Kansas City’s Country Club Plaza.
