Abercrombie is now hugely successful again by making billowy clothing for people in their thirties

Oh I get it now

Millennial culottes

Culottes for boys

I admit to buying this long airloft winter parka that is super light but also keeps me really warm. I can go in the -30 Canuck winter and not feel cold.

That was a rather boring infomercial from the OP.

Everything screams “Bay Area tech” (aspies like baggy, unfussy clothing, and the muted colors are a Bay thing)

R4 I thought it was fascinating

Especially since I only clicked the link to see if they would show more of the guy on the right with the huge tits

(He did not appear)

They did well to keep going when you think of what's been exposed about them and the fact that - while they're not the same company now - their name will be forever associated with that.

I had a look at their website and the prices don't seem bad, plus some of the clothing looks decent.

One thing I did notice is that most of their models aren't white. Before anyone complains, I have zero issue with that, I'm only saying it because almost all their models used to be white (which they were rightly criticised for) but now they've gone so far the other way, it's obviously engineered. It's a bit like when companies adopt the rainbow flag during Pride month when they don't care any other time.

I lived in Columbus during the hey day of Mike Jeffries

My friend has Jeffries personal manager

My other friend was a designer and the men’s small fit model

A&F corporate was a snake den of bitchery and the dead eyed

Used to wear A&F in middle/high school, but abandoned it thereafter. I “came home” to the brand over the past couple of years, and have been pleasantly surprised as everything I’ve bought has been quality and looks good. It’s a little trendy without going overboard (nothing too billowy here).

The polo shirts are still $40! Some things never change.
