Hollister is a cool store, but it rather kills your senses:
HEARING-Loud Blaring music
SMELLING-An entire store doused with fragrances coming through the airvents
SEEING-Dark, batcave like
Although taste and hearing remain intact.
Also, be sure to watch out for long lines and angry parents with rising credit card debts due to their little daughters who tell them to buy a "Cute outfit" for them, when they then get into fights with other parent because they are sick of waiting in sometimes very long lines!
Be aware not to wear your clothes sporting "Hollister" to the state in which it represents CALIFORNIA!!
You might just get beat up...

a town on the central coast of california, inexplicably the namesake of the latest A&F brand clothing store. Home to two McDonalds, a target, and more pot smokers than chico, hollister is one of those smalltown suburban black holes that saps your soul until you finally escape
"Oh, I'm from Hollister"
"No Way! Do you have a Hollister store in Hollister?"
"Dude, we don't even have a mall in hollister"

Hollister is a preppy southern california looking store that sells every color clothing except black. Sells, ripped/vintage clothing, and is owned by Abercrombie, but targeted at people between the ages of 15-21.

A clothing store that is owned by Abercrombie & Fitch. It has a "West Coast feel" and is actually a great store. It targets teenagers and recruits good looking college kids to work.
I do understand some hate it and think its a cult, but I worked at one and the people are amazing and it actually is exactly what the haters say. An overpriced place to buy torn jeans, but hey here's a thought...why not buy the non torn jeans for $30 and do it yourself like most of the workers do at the store.
The clothing is of better quality than most the of the stores out there and is cheaper than A&F.
AND its not only for white people, I am hispanic and worked there and we had blacks and asains there too!

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!

a store owned by abercrombie that markets west coast inspired styles appealing to mostly junior high and some high schoolers. the clothes are of decent quality, though i would advise you that if you are wide shouldered like me, dont wear thier tank tops. its about the same price as american eagle, less exspensive than a&f, and the same price as abercrombie kids. if you are tired of american eagle, like abercrombie, but dont fit into the kids clothes and dont want to pay 34 dollars for a teeshirt at a&f, hollister is the store for you.
