Get the hollister co. mug.A store where young teens who want to look the same waste all their money. The clothing comes in many different colors but all say the same thing. It is also a store that is technically not designer. Just a wannabe. Teens also think that the clothing is worn by rich people but truth be told real rich people buy clothing that's hundreds or over a thousand dollars like Chanel, Giorgio Armani, Ralph Lauren, etc.
Hollister is in fact a Low-end chain store.

Get the Hollister mug.Related Words
An overpriced, heavily perfumed store commonly found in malls, that attracts various perfect-looking teenage girls (and sometimes boys) that like to shop for shirts that advertise the store across their boob area, and hundred-dollar pre-ripped jeans with quality that can also be found at other stores, for less money. Abercrombie and Fitch, who owns the store, is more expensive, but most times, not by much.
Hollister brand clothing is used in public schools to define your wealth. It is the uniform of the stereotypical rich teen girl. If you don't own any Hollister, you must be poor, and therefore, uncool.

Get the Hollister Co. mug.Hollister, California is a small town located in San Benito County. It has one High School called San Benito High School, where most of the kids in San Benito County go. Most people refer to it as "The High School."
As of 2010, the population was 34,928. It was 65.7% Hispanic or Latino, 29.1% White, 0.7% African American, 0.3% Native American, 2.4% Asian, 0.1% Pacific Islander, and 0.1% other.
West Side and Northside are where most of the poor people live and where most of the gang activity takes place. EastSide is where the lower income-middle class live, some gang activity occurs there. And SouthSide is where the rich people live.
Hollister does not have much to do for young teens without transportation, most just walk target like it's a mall.
Hollister is often confused with the store Hollister Co. People will always ask if it's a beach town. When you respond no they will then ask if there is even a Hollister store in Hollister. Hollister Co. ad Hollister, California HATE eachother. Hollister Co. wanted Hollister, CA to change it's name even though Hollister CA has been here WAY longer. Rediculous.
Hollister is a very beautiful place. It is almost surrounded by mountains and has a lot of open fields. Agriculture is a big thing in this town.
Becausue of Hollister's high Hispanic population, it has a ton of delicious authentic taquerias, panaderias, super mercados, etc.
If you move to the right area of Hollister, I'm sure you will love it there. Kind of.

Get the Hollister Co. mug.Hollister, fully named Hollister Co., is a designer brand that is made by Abercrombie & Fitch. It has a strong California surfer vibe throughout the store. The actual storefront is very unique: it has a huge bamboo roof and gates on either side of the door. It does not say Hollister on the storefront. Inside, it is dimly lit, many compartments, and it is scented with there cologne. It sells polos, camis, logo shirts, babydoll shirts, workshirts, henleys, sweaters, sweatshirts, leggings, skirts, jeans, cargo pants, sweatpants, shorts, summer dresses, jean jackets, winter jackets, flip-flops, bags, legwarmers, armwarmers, and hats. They also sell CDs from the music played in the store and surfer magazines. Unlike some people may think, Hollister is not just for preps. Hollister is for people who just want to look cute. If you have ever worn cheaper brands and then bought something from Hollister, you will see how much softer and more relaxed it is. Hollister clothes are very comfy and casual. Yes, they do market logo tees, but they also have some fancier, yet still causal shirts. They are mainly famous for their ripped jeans. I can understand why people from the actual city of Hollister would hate that store, but I cannot understand why you would hate that store for no particular reason whatsoever. If you want to shop at Hollister, than great, shop at Hollister. If you don't like it, that's fine, but you don't have to publicize your hate for it either. There clothes can be a little expensive sometimes, but there logo tees are usually only $15.50 and there's always clearance. It is generally less expensive then Abercrombie. It is very mainstream, like Abercrombie. If you dont want to spend $30 for a tee in Abercrombie & Fitch, and you can afford but can't fit into the clothes at abercrombie Kids, then Hollister is the store for you.
Stella - I just got this new tee from Hollister
Massie - I like Roxy more
Jordyn - Hot Topic is my favorite store
Stella - That's fine, if you like it then you should wear it
Massie - Want to go to the mall?
Stella & Jordyn - Sure!
