A brand which sells horrible shirts but nice jeans. If you're really skinny, like me, you will know that its difficult to shop for jeans as the ones that fit your waist are too short. Well, in this store I have found jeans that fit me perfectly and thats a plus for them.
I'd like to quote kewltrunkz, the second definition for this word. She says "A retail line where if they suddenly decided that breathing wasn't cool, half the people in this world, especially the preps, would die." I want to make this clear: preps don't wear Abercrombie and Fitch. They may have the occasional item, but they seriously don't shop there. That's quite an error.
The shirts, I will agree, are overpriced. You can get much more elegant and well-fitting shirts in better stores for the same price (eg. J. Crew)
A thing I find funny about this store is the hype that surrounds it. If you go to Fifth Avenue, New York, across from the Tiffany's store, you will find a big wooden-like building with the shape of a box and, on festives, a line that goes around the block. I find this amazing. Do people really queue to enter that average store on their few days of vacation in the amazing city that is New York? What a mentality.
Summary:
1. Jeans are perfect for skinny people
2. Shirts are a rip-off
3. Don't do the queue

Preppy 1: Look, I bought some Abercrombie and Fitch jeans.
Preppy 2: They look great on you! But I have to say, that store sells some horrendous t-shirts and hoodies.
Preppy 1: I agree.
8-year-old girl: Mummy! Mummy! Please take me to A&F, all my class is wearing it!
Mother: Okay sweetheart, we'll check it out sometime.
4 years later, the girl is a slut wearing too much make-up and jean-knickers (in A&F they call them shorts!)

Abercrombie and Fitch is the mother brand of the A&F Company, which includes Hollister co., Abercrombie Kids, and Gilly Hicks.
A&F hires and recruits good looking, attractive, young people (usually college students) as “models” to work at their stores. When recruiting, they look for All- American girls that are slim/ slender, have a pretty face, and look "effortlessly beautiful" -- girls that are all-natural, meaning no make-up or only minimum, natural make-up is permitted. Guys should be All-American, have a strong jaw, build/muscular, tall, good looking. Personality-wise, they look for cool, outgoing people. The "popular kid in school" is what they want. "Models,” previously known as Brand Representatives, aren't real models. They do the same tasks regular sales associates do, such as cleaning, folding, fitting rooms, etc. A&F floor models are called models because they are the only advertisements for the brand, which entail them to be considered "models." A&F doesn't make any commercials, nor do they advertise.
Abercrombie and Fitch is a trendy brand that targets college students ages 18-22. Abercrombie and Fitch is expanding internationally, opening in big cities with big population to better promote its popularity. A&F is club-like: dim lights, good loud music, good looking staff, and nice, casual clothing – why wouldn’t cool, young people (the target customers) want to come here? Truth is: The stores help attract attractive, young people.

"Where can I get cool, casual, everyday clothing is that trendy and fashionable nowadays?"

A display case for pictures of men with hairless chests, and a hint of pubic hair right above their tight, crotch hugging jeans.... Oh yeah, and Abercrombie and Fitch has some clothes in it.

a once "outdoors" store that now sells clothing aimed at upper-middle class teenagers and young college students. the clothing may be a bit overpriced, but it is definitely not other stores/brands such as the buckle, urban outfitters, lacoste, le tigre, or lucky brand. they advertise with a slogan of "casual luxury," which, indeed, it is. the clothes are generally very comfortable and fit well.
since it is targeted towards an OLDER audience than most "brand name" apparel, the clothes are made to fit misses sizes and young men.
abercrombie generally has a "mountain-range, yacht club" atmosphere, and it's younger counterpart, hollister co., has more of a "beachy" feel.
hollister is also owned by abercrombie, much as hot topic, old navy, and the gap are all owned by the banana republic.
hollister is significantly cheaper than abercrombie because it is targeted towards a younger audience that generally does not produce its own income.
contrary to popular belief, hollister is no more expensive than american eagle and pacific sunwear (pac sun); in fact, most of the items there are cheaper. some may argue that american eagle is THE BEST THING SINCE EVER, but i personally find that their clothes stretch out way too much after a only couple of wears, and their jeans have had a noticeable increase in price over the past few months (ranging from $29.50 which is a very good price to $59.50 which is the same as the most expensive hollister jeans available atm). while american eagle does have a great sale rack, hollister does, as well, and you can also find some pretty nice things at abercrombie.
abercrombie and fitch carries clothing that will last for a great amount of time. i, personally, have a purse and several shirts that have lasted me since the 8th grade (i am now a senior in high school). they also seem to have very friendly service.
some individuals get beyond too carried away with the idea of being able to wear "high quality merchandise." these are usually, but not always, the kids who you see with popped collars, aviator sunglasses, and those annoying, "i am better than you" attitudes. this is not to be blamed on the store, but rather, the individuals and their love for shows like laguna beach. they tend to take things a bit too far, and yes, i agree, end up making themselves look moronic.
the truth is that if you don't like abercrombie and fitch or hollister, you DON'T have to wear it. no one is forcing you to do that. holding a grudge against individuals who do, simply because they are wearing a brand that you don't like, is immature. brands are brands; let people live with them.
