    Well A&F clothing is basically a label. People buy the stuff for the Abercrombie label thats why their clothing sell. Dont get me wrong they do have clothes that are cheaply made but they also have clothes that aren't cause I have a few things that I've had for over 4-5 years. You just have to find the clothing that's made with better quality. So you just have to be smart on the stuff you pick. That's like anywhere though. Anywhere you shop has clothing that's made differently or better than others. Even stuff that's REALL expensive. Like a $200 dollar pay of shoes you might but...and you go out dancing or walking somewhere and the heel brakes off. I myself love A&F...I'm 8 months pregnant right now so I haven't really enjoyed wearing their clothing but before I was pregnant I loved them. Hopefully My body will go back to a decent size so I can wear their clothes. I love the style...casual, and cute dressy. You can go so many styles in their clothing, thats why I love it so much. Just be smart on the items you pick, thats all!

    i saw a short sleeve sweater-kind of material shirt with a ribbon on it for $75

    ^i would never pay that much for that top

    their stuff is cute, and i think their quality of fabric is really good (i love how all their stuff is really soft :] )...but i think it is the manufacturing of the clothing that is poor (seams, stiching, etc)

    A&F knows that teens like their clothes because they think they must wear them to fit in, so they know that even if they charge a crapload, teens will still buy stuff from there. I'm not really one of those teens. I buy a few things there, but it's not my entire wardrobe or anything- I like to mix it up. :)

    Why are you asking others that question when that's "pretty much" what YOU wear.

    We should be asking you, apparently.

    It's absolutely ridiculous.
