I'm so glad i don't own a piece of their clothing. If you wear their shit, you're a walking billboard, they sell almost NOTHING that doesn't have their name plastered on it somewhere. It's truly a disgrace.

My problem with all this argument is that they're not selling to college kids really. I just graduated from a relatively wealthy popluated Private college, the people who would have the money for abercrombie, and most of them didn't wear it. I knew lots and lots of people who wore it in highschool, but people were over it by college. I think their target market is the 14-18 crowd. Just look at the sizes, and styles they carry. Anyways, i just steer clear of the place, and that suits me just fine. If people want to pay too much, for pre-ripped clothing, and classless advertising, that's their perogative.

On a last note, i think that after clicking on that child thong link above, the racial thing is pretty disgusting as well. i just think the people who market/run that place are sleazy. what can you do, besides avoid the place?
