Okay this needs a good definition. For starters the clothes aren't even close to expensive, however they are overpriced. Also they aren't preppy what so ever. So if you go there and think you are awesome, preppy, or rich you are wrong.
1. You are not awesome because you like to fit in with everyone else
2. Preppy is NOT tight fitting clothes that are poorly made and have words written all over it. Preppy is lacoste, vineyard vines, jcrew, raulph lauren, sperry top sider. Sorry to ruin it for you but you are the opposite of a prep.
3. Abercrombie is a VERY cheap brand. The reason anyone would think it is expensive is because you havnt seen the prices at vineyard vines, lacoste etc.

Get the abercrombie mug.A store that only people who are absolutely jealous would criticize. The sad truth is that most all of the people that bitch about Abercrombie are the goths, punks, outcasts, and people who just plain can't afford it anyway. You are NOT being unique by wearing something from K-Mart. And, if you are goth or punk, you are not being unique either because you all wear the SAME THING TOO. I guarantee most of the people who posted negatively fit into one of these other groups. Abercrombie isn't prep. It's stylish. Vintage. Comfortable. A sign of a lifestyle a person has. THe only people I would say I hate who wear Abercrombie are the ones that wear it just to fit in, not because they like it or they have the lifestyle Abercrombie says about them.
Table of goths, druggies, and punks at lunch: Dude, look at those Abercrombie kids. They are soooo not unique. I mean, really, everyone at our table is wearing a completely different shade of black. We're really unique.
Table of popular Abercrombies: Dude, who gives a rip about those people over there? We're cool and we get lots of "action" so who cares? Let them cut their wrists and wish they were rich. Haha. Next subject.

Get the Abercrombie mug.An American lifestyle brand aimed at those aged 18–22, Abercrombie & Fitch (often shortened to Abercrombie) has over 300 locations in the U.S. due to its extreme popularity.
It operates under a theme of outdoor adventure. For example, the "canoe store" look, and outdoorsy photos employ this tactic. Always in grayscale, Abercrombie & Fitch idealizes the fit, young, and sexy, making use of near-pornagraphic photos — a tactic which has governed controversy. Electronic dance music is played at sometimes 90 decibels, and lighting is always dim in-store.
Abercrombie & Fitch markets itself as an upscale retailer, after opening its Flagship store on Fitfh Avenue. The use of high-grade materials and "body conscious" clothing have spawned the slogan "Casual Luxury," which is reflected in the clothing style and its prices.
Other divisions of Abercrombie & Fitch include:
abercrombie: The children's brand of Abercrombie & Fitch, aimed at those aged 7–14.
Hollister Co.: The Southern California-themed brand, aimed at those aged 14–18.
Gilly Hicks: The Sydney, Australia-themed brand, specializing in women's underwear, aimed at those aged 18 and up.
Ruehl No.925: The post-collegiate brand, aimed at those 22–35. Now defunct due to poor sales.
