Hollister Co. is a clothing line brought to you by Abercrombie & Fitch. The Hollister store is all about setting and imagery. Every store entrance is sheltered by a small spanish tile roof that appears to have been weathered over the years of tropical storms, and the golden bake of the sun.
Stores are filled with tropical florals, mostly palmish faux plants that give you the feeling of being whisked away to a far off place with sandy beaches and good times. Depending on the season the store always has a fresh aroma hovering over its apparel giving off a sense of lush cleanliness and exclusivity.
The lighting is dim inside the surfer hut where various clothing items are emblazened with golden spot lighting. A plethera of pop culture magazines and happy go lucky albums are lined in small cubby's along the front of the counter, and surf boards are hung behind the cashiers on the sea blue wooden tounge and groove walls.
Loud music plays throughout, and there are plenty of plump leather arm chairs to sit in simply to relax and enjoy the experience. The seating area closely resembles a seating arangement in a cabin around a warm fire, with plush plaid blankets flung over worn leather chairs and aged southwestern rugs strategically placed along the painted hardwood floors.
Hollister Co. is a personal get away, where you can experience the feel of coastal culture in your own suburban backyard. Just a few minutes in the store will give you the feeling that you've just reached your vacation destination where you can let loose and enjoy the layed back life style.
All of the clothing items have a worn in weathered look to them like they've all been hand washed with nothing more than sea foam and a bar of hand soap. With truly unique fittings and styles... Hollister tends to be a trend setter when it comes to lifestyle clothing brands. All clothing is made of top notch material for durability and quality.
Some are turned off more by the staff than by the actual company itself. Hollister advertises a certain youthful sexiness that sadly attracts a less than humble crew to stock shelves and stand around idly in self absortion while you roam around in the store and soak it up for yourself. However, if you can see past the mild sense of vanity that plagues the staffers... you will most likely find that Hollister is a quite enjoyable place for the youthful shopper.

A store owned by Abercrombie and fitch which tailors to the "surfer" image. They sell their shirts tight, their shorts big, and all of it is just a bit less expensive than Abercrombie and Fitch. They have some nice stuff- their jeans and shorts and shirt are durable, and most everything I own from their is very comfortable to wear. They do cater to guys and glas who like to keep good care of themselves, but I don't know a single girl or guy who shops at Hollister and is gay. The Gay ones that I know all shop at Urban outfitters, Gap and Banana Republic.
Guy: I like this polo. A&F has one like it for 20 bucks more.

Girl: I like this skirt. Who cares if someone doesn't? I'm not the one dressing them.

Hollister Co. is a crappy store that makes evryone who shops there feel like crap. Normal girls cant barley even fit there because they are not skinny enough. It's a store where there is smaller than small but not larger than large. They make people feel bad about there looks and their sizings are all wrong.If you arent a size small its like they are saying "your not good enough to shop here". Plus they are really expensive.You better be anorexic to shop there.
average sized girl- "I wear a size med. in every other store but I can't even fit in Hollister Co.!"

Company owned by Abercrombie and Fitch that is taken off of the actual city, Hollister, California. (I would know, I live here...)
Cheaper than Abercrombie, still hella expensive, but honestly-- who gives a damn?

If you're really that materialistic to be caring what other people are wearing, then you have serious issues. Let the people wear what they effing want to wear. Do I wear Hollister? Not particularly. Do some of my friends shop there? Yes. Do I care? No. Should I? No. If I find something cute that I like there that doesn't cost too much should I get it? Yes.

Honestly people. They're JUST CLOTHES! I can't believe you people are discriminate of people because of their clothes. How effing retarded can you get?
Stupid emo kid that hates everyone and everything: "Oh my gawd, what a lame ass. They're wearing HOLLISTER..."
Real Person: "...and...?"
Stupid emo kid: "WHAT A LOSER!"
Real Person: "...and you care, why?"
Stupid emo kid: "Because! They shop there!"
Real Person: "O...kay..."
Stupid emo kid: *runs off crying* "I hate Hollister people! WAAAAH!!!"
Real Person: "...moving on...!"

The way i see it, the clothes at Hollister are pretty cute. although some of the clothes may seem a little skimpy, its all well intended. Its not like its unatrctive or anything. The thing that buts me is when people who shop there think they're better than everyone else. Its cool to be confident and not all self-depricating but theres a point where you're going too far and just plain being snotty. I mean, look at deffinition 15. its just plain MEAN! How can you even make a definition like that? Ouch. I mean, yeah its true theres porbably some "Hollister haters" out there who only hate on people who wear hollister because theyre affraid they wont fit in it and i used to be one of them. But they arent all like that. So lets break this Hollister hater vs. Hot topic hater and all LOVE EACHOTHER!I <3 hollister clothes AND hot topic clothes. CANT WE ALL JUST GET ALONG???
girl in nirvana shirt: Hey, I like your skirt! where did you get it?
girl in hollister outfit: Hollister!
girl in nirvana shirt: its really cute. would u mind if i borrowed it sometime?
girl in hollister outfit: sure, as long as i can borrow your shirt. I <3 Nirvana!

A brand that people who say they don't care about clothes hate... And the same people who "don't judge based on appearance" hate anyone who wears Hollister or Abercrombie. Its interesting that you can have your own styles and yet it apparently makes you a bitch to shop at hollister. Did you know that fasion is considered an art form? It is in the metripolitan museam of art: "Fashion." So why can't people care about what they wear and that includes wearing whatever clothes they want to: vintage shops, goodwill, target, nordstrom, zoomiez, pacsun, ae, abercrombie, hollister, urban outfitters, ann taylor, thisisit, small boutiques, ANYTHING. And people have a right not to be stereotyped for what they wear, and that includes people who wear Hollister.
"I dont care about what people wear... unless they wear hollister or abercrombie: then I hate them!!!"

(is there a contradiction there?)
