A clothing store that can be found at almost any reputable mall in the country. Although the clothing can be slightly pricey compared to the Jeff Foxworthy line at Wal Mart, the majority of what they carry is aesthetically pleasing, generally comfortable, and the dyes won't run and the fabrics won'
t tear as easily as less expensive clothing.
Abercrombie is loved by some for its trendy, flattering styles, but is often criticized for its
preppy appeal and
high prices, usually by outcast teenagers with nothing
better to do, often the same teenagers who are quite willing to pay $40 for a pair of Chuck Taylors that once cost only $12 and because of whom Dickies has become another
sub-culture-conformist product manufacturer rather than the respectable producer of quality
work clothes that we used to know and love.
Although the controversy rages on, the fact is that true individuals
don't like or dislike clothing because of what
people think, rather, they like or dislike clothing because they like or dislike the clothing. Ironically, the stores which were once labeled as
preppy have become the least conformist places to shop.
