Clothing brand, for people who enjoy the (just got back from the beach) look. Not for people who want to look down on walmart buyers or any other less expensive brand.
I agree there is some people out there that do, use a&f, and hollister as a way to do that, but not every one who shops there does it for that reason. Some people shop there because they like the style. Personally i see it from all sides i shop every where if something looks good on me i buy it, and yess a&f and hollister are some of my favorite stores. But i also like hot topic and sure walmart once in a while. i dont care all stores are great. And you can weigh over 110, im pretty sure the models all weight over 110. i know i do. im 119. I think this whole deal with the brands is crazy, shop at what ever stores you want and where ever you want.

I have written extensive explanations of each of the Abercrombie & Fitch areas, but before you read them, I wanted to say this: I am currently an employee of A&F and enjoy my position very much. I do not like to hear or read negative things about my place of employment, which is why I have written so extensively. I have just graduated from high school and yes I was the "popular kid", no I didn't play football, but I was a "prep" and not afraid to admit it. I believe in what the Abercrombie label stands for and that is why I purchase their merchandise and work in their store. I was not however, just friends with people who wear Abercrombie and Hollister. I was friends with the people I played sports with, most of whom wore Volcom, Hurley, Fox Racing, etc. I also graduated in the top 5% of my class which contained 450 students. This is why I wanted to clear up that not everyone who wears A&F clothing is "dumb, rich, a conformist", or otherwise. My position at A&F is "model", which I see as a huge responsibility. I have to represent our lifestyle as best as possible and I do so with pride. If you do not like the Abercrombie & Fitch lifestyle that is perfectly fine and up to you, but I do ask that you respect those who do find that this lifestyle is a way they would like to live their lives.
Abercrombie and Fitch is the most successful specialty retailer in operation today. The casual, classic, all-American lifestyle brand of clothing is synonymous with quality. Although they specifically target college students between the ages of 18-22, their appeal is universal.
The A&F Culture is one-of-a-kind. They design, merchandise, market - and live - the Abercrombie & Fitch brand. They are their best customer. A&F's brand powered momentum is fueled by additional lifestyle reinforcement. Every aspect of their stores - the music, the marketing and photos, the overall aesthetic - has made the in-store experience more potent than ever.

Overpriced clothing store sometimes referred to as Abercrombie and Bitch... Guys who buy clothing from there are metrosexuals who want to look as pretty as girls. Girls who buy clothing from there are prissy and rich and wicked skinny.
1) "Cara, doesn't your boyfriend shop at Abercrombie and Bitch?"
"Ugh, gosh Amie... just because you're too poor and fat to shop there, doesn't mean you should bash those of us that CAN!"
2) Xtina realized that she now weighed 110 lbs, and had to put shopping at Abercrombie to a halt. Where's the maternity stores again?
