    I have one a&f but i don't wear it.
    First reason is d4 snobheads are the scum of the earth follewd by scumbags, fact. I do my best to avoid them. Im not saying all a&f wearers are d4 heads, just most of them.


    Gang of Jocks on one side of a street, gang of Skobes on the other, you have to walk down the street and its a busy road, who'd you rather have to walk past?

    and if you say Skobes, you're a liar, sorry :pac:

    Aw well I'm not a snob, but I go to school in D4, hang out with people from D4 and have a slightly milder version of the accent (which becomes more pronounced the drunker I get).

    I'm in a very similar situation, but accent doesnt really get pronounced when I drink, just kinda slurred :D

    I'd rather walk by the scobes, who wouldn't?;)

    I'm saying d4's less likely to stab you but on a whole the 'scanger' type are genuinely nicer people.
    I suppose its minorities on the both sides that bring each class down. Having said that I prefer the generally nicer scangers to the generally snob d4's.

    I agree with the whole unoriginal/expensive for what it is brigade.

    I've been in the library lately and there is a shocking amount of it, but its mostly just a plain item of clothing with the brand name.(For lads anyway, I've been told they do nice ladies clothes but I havent seen any yet!)

    Most decent hoodies are comfy FFS!

    Im sure there may be some clothes they do that I'd like, but I don't see the point in getting a plain T-shirt with just a name like this, but thats exactly what you see most people wearing.

    Just seems to say "Look I have an A&F Tshirt!"

    Fake tan doesn't suit me at all, I'm too naturally pale so I don't bother.

    Me too, though due to my general shunnage of jumpers from around march onwards, reduces the paleness :D




    (I would say, i'd shudder to think of men wearing fake tan, but I have seen it :()

    I totally agree, they are wearing the brand not just a hoodie or shirt.

    nooope.
    I wouldnt wear it ever. Ever.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 529 ✭✭✭rhapsody!


    I personally hate Abercrombie because EVERYONE wears it and it's unbelievably dull to see everyone wearing the same old tripe :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,398 ✭✭✭MIN2511


    I think i like Hollister now, but Hollister, AE and AF are all the same! Shops in the states look alike too, we really are whores for fashion :D

    Hollister are owned by A + F who are suing AE if I recall rightly.

    I have a limited experience of A&F, I've got one men's t-shirt I use as jammies :) Based on this experience, I can't say that the clothes are so stupendously comfortable/attractive as to warrant half the under 25s in the country wearing it and little else. It is a bit weird walking through campus and seeing twenty people wearing it, I don't generally like clothes that display the brand so obviously


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,001 ✭✭✭p1akuw47h5r3it


    Yeah although it was a present so...

    I love how everyone disqualifys themselves by saying it was bought for them! You're still wearing it! :pac: Ever had anyone ask who bought your clothes?

    I bought a good whack of it for myself, sure I prolly look like everyone else but do I care? Do I fuck.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,794 ✭✭✭JC 2K3


    Why start the topic, so?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,481 ✭✭✭✭cson


    Same reason you started the text speak and grammar one in AH ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 184 ✭✭burgess1


    Nope. I was, however, unfortunate enough to endure half an hour in their fallout shelter in London with my sister in the summer.

    Fascinating, please continue with this sooth-saying.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,481 ✭✭✭✭cson


    Indeed, quite the extensive research was conducted in arriving at said conclusion...:pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,699 ✭✭✭Brian


    I find the A + F thing quite funny. They were huge when I lived in the USA back in 2002, then it's taken them 5 years to get over here, and their clothes are still the same overpriced crap.
    I don't own any of their clothes, nor would I want it. I would like an Applecrumble and Fish T-Shirt though.

    AE isn't bad. But A and F/Hollister is ARGHHH YA DURTY PONCE!

    Thats not random. That was a genuine question.
    If I wanted to be random I woulda included 3 jars of peanut butter, 4 fried eggs and a lifesize plaster cast of liza minelli


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,590 ✭✭✭Pigwidgeon


    don't own any abercrombie or whatnot..
    i don't care how comfy the hoody's are, i can get big comfy hoodies in dunnes/penneys for a fraction of the price, i'm not one for wearing hoodies on a daily basis, just at home so can't justify spending loads on one.
