Get the abercrombie mug.Contrary to popular belief, Abercrombie is not a preppy store. Its patrons may choose to say otherwise, but its display of cheaply-made clothing and provacative advertisements all point to the opposite end of prep spectrum.
When the true definition of Prep is thought of, it is not usually connotated with a thin t-shirt that has blatant innuendo written across the chest, which is what Abercrombie excells in. Abercrombie is, in summary, a sad excuse for a Prep store where those who desperately want to be the epitome of Prep spend their money which they, in most cases, got from their parents.
It is important to remember, however, that Abercrombie was not always in such ruin. When it first started in 1892 and before it became, essentially, a place for sexually-repressed teenagers to buy conforming (in both senses of the word) clothing, it was a "store that outfitted wealthy businessmen for their outdoor pursuits". In just a little over a century it has a gone from businessmen pursuing the outdoors to teens pursuing the fastest way to be considered cool by their peers.
When Abercrombie is thought of as preppy, it makes the true preps shutter.
Even the children's version, abercrombie sic, albeit not as sexual, is just as shocking. abercrombie sic which carries Girls' sizes 7-16 and boys 8-20, has shirts with messages that are so rude and egotistical it is not unusual to want to smack the kid that is wearing it. An example would be "The party starts when I arrive" (a Girls t-shirt) and "Once a winner, always a winner" (found in the Boys' section) make the adults of our society involuntarily gag. This spoiled attitude is what they fought for in 3 wars? It's truly enough to make anyone vomit, or as The Official Preppy Handbook puts it, yawn in color.

Absera

• ABERCROMBIE AND FITCH
• abercrombie
• abercrombie & fitch
• Abeer
• aberzombie
A peculiar specimen which infest college campuses and upscale suburban high schools across the North American landmass.
Nominally a human being, the Aberzombie is easily identifiable by large advertisements worn on its chest and buttocks. It tends to come from wealthy stock, drives an SUV and mates exclusively with other Aberzombies.
The musical taste of the Aberzombie is limited to bands like Dave Matthews and O.A.R. Its SUV is typically emblazoned with a sticker reading "DMB" so as to communicate its bland taste in music to potential mates.
The Aberzombie is not without its natural enemies, however. Most prominent among them are independent thought and a sense of style. The Aberzombie will go to great lengths not to face such horrific ideas, most often by associating only with fellow Aberzombies. In the rare case that it is exposed to outside ideas/free thought, it will utilize its only defense mechanism: complaining that others are envious and simply cannot afford Abercrombie clothing.

Get the Aberzombie mug.A store in which insecure folk whom are mostly of the teenage prep demographic go to buy ripped jeans and shirts which advertise "ABERCROMBIE" on them because they are too lazy to rip their own jeans or write their own advertisement. But the cost of the clothes is unimportant because their daddy is paying for all of it.
Prep 1: Lets go buy stuff at Abercrombie
Prep 2: First let's go throw up in the bathroom.
Prep 1: Good idea that way I can fit into something most 8 year olds can't fit into.
Prep 2: But first I'm gonna go give my four boyfriends a blowjob so I can go buy the clothes.
Prep 1: No need my daddy gave me 1000 dollars for whatever I want.

Get the Abercrombie mug.It is a clothing store for teenagers. They sell very comfortable clothes, really soft, but are super expensive. They are mostly preppy clothes. usually when a person is wearing all abercrombie, many say they are rich. as much as I LOVE their clothes they are much too overpriced. I think their bags cost more to make then there simple cotton shirts. Abercrombie and fitch is the more adult store. Sizes 0-12. The child store is 8-16. THe clothes are very tight fitting. they are made for skinny people, which everybody thinks is a little bit unfair, but if you are like me and really abnormally skinny then this is probably the only store that will be able to fit you. The clothes are quality made, they last me a long time. pros: comfy, durable clothes, cons: too expensive, sizes are too small.
