Abercrombie & Fitch Ordered to Pay Big in Autism Discrimination Case

In 2005, helpful big sister Brittney Maxson tried to enter an A&F dressing room at the Mall of America to assist her younger sibling, 14-year-old Molly, who is autistic.

She was confronted by store staff, who said that hollister clothing policy didn’t allow more than one person in a dressing room at a time in an attempt combat shoplifting. The girls had encountered the same policy at another store, but they allowed the sisters in the dressing room at that store after they understood the situation.

At abercrombie outlet, Brittney explained her sister’s special needs, but was still refused. Their mom, Beth, tried to talk to management and the girls were still refused. Beth even called a customer service hotline while at the store and the request was still ignored.

Abercrombie and Fitch Goodness graciou

Glad to read your Off The Shelf and glad to share a concern about one retailer, abercrombie and fitch. I personally find this store so ridiculous that I can hardly stand up for people who shop there.

However, most of the customers are unsuspecting young people, who want so badly to look like a clone of their friends that they will buy items even if they do not ring up at the expected/posted sale price.

This happened to us a year ago and I started to believe that the problem was happening throughout the chain that I wrote to the State Attorney General to complain. It seems that every teen I ask has had the experience of the young sales clerk (who looks and acts the “abercrombie outlet” image that the teens desire to emulate) saying “if it doesn’t ring up on sale, it is not on sale.” This of course is bogus in most cases, but the teen shoppers are sucked in by it if they don’t know the law.

I want to see more young people standing up for their rights. I am also curious to know how often this happens at the more expensive clothing stores.

Abercrombie & Fitch moves to 2nd-qtr loss on charges related to Ruehl closing

NEW YORK — A chastened abercrombie and fitch. said Friday it is actively lowering prices and trying to catch up with fashion trends such as dresses as the retailer reported a fiscal second-quarter loss and its third straight quarter of double-digit sales declines.

The preppy teen retailer entered the recession determined to wait it out, maintaining its relatively high prices and investing internationally. But consumers have abandoned abercrombie and fitch for lower-priced options such as Aeropostale Inc. and American Eagle Outfitters Inc.

In response, the company has cut jobs and shuttered its even higher-priced Ruehl chain aimed at 20- and 30-somethings.

CEO Mike Jeffries said the company made a misstep with Ruehl.

“The biggest learning from Ruehl is that as a company, we don’t do ‘mature’ well,” Jeffries said in a conference call with investors.

Jeffries said the company has introduced lower prices and will lower prices even more in coming quarters.

“We continue to be confronted with very challenging conditions during the second quarter,” Jeffries said. “Consumer spending patterns domestically continue to be dictated by cost and value propositions, and this is clearly a headwind for our premium brands.”

In the quarter ended ended Aug. 1, abercrombie and fitch loss totaled $26.7 million, or 30 cents per share. That compares with profit of $77.8 million, or 87 cents per share, a year ago.

Quarterly results included $24.4 million in charges for the Ruehl closing and store asset impairment charges. The company would not provide a per-share loss excluding the closure. However, Thomas Weisel Partners analyst Liz Dunn estimated the loss excluding one-time items would be about 8 cents per share.

Analysts forecast a loss of 7 cents per share. Analyst estimates typically exclude one-time items.

Sales dropped 23 percent to $648.5 million, but that topped analyst expectations of $646.5 million.

New Albany, Ohio-based abercrombie and fitch., which operates of namesake stores as well as abercrombie, its children’s apparel brand; surf-themed Hollister; and intimate apparel store Gilly Hicks, said sales in stores open at least one year, a key retail metric known as same-store sales, dropped 30 percent. Same-store sales fell 27 percent at namesake stores, 29 percent at abercrombie and fitch stores, 33 percent at Hollister and 31 percent at Ruehl.

Known for preppy offerings such as jeans and polo shirts, Abercrombie said it is working to improve its fashion offerings, particulary for women. Dresses and belts have been selling well.

“We are always pushing ourselves … but have admittedly missed some of the fashion opportunities that drove the business in the spring,” Jefferies said.

Prices are also in flux. The company said the average prices will be lower in the third quarter and upcoming quarters than the second quarter.

“We are planning to deliver greater reductions in (average unit retail price) for the fall season, but we’ll continue to review pricing on an ongoing basis,” Jefferies said.

The company slashed marketing, general and administrative costs during the quarter, down 19 percent to $88.7 million from $109 million last year.

The closing of Ruehl, its store focused on handbags and other accessories and aimed at older shoppers, should be complete by the end of the fiscal year.

Jeffries said the company’s Gilly Hicks intimate apparel brand, which was skewing older, will now be aimed at the company’s 20-year-old target market.

“We are young, we’re sexy, we’re controversial at times,” Jeffries said. “That’s what we know how to do, and that’s the business that we own here and are comfortable that we can around the world.”

Abercrombie had “pretty decent results, better than we expected,” said Keybanc Capital Markets analyst Ed Yruma. “They’re getting traction on changes in their promotional strategy, including being more focused on denim and on opening price points.”

Shares rose 99 cents, or 3 percent, to $33.95 during morning trading.

Abercrombie moves to block Beyonce's fragrance

Superstar Beyonce has been hit with a trademark infringement lawsuit from bosses at clothing firm abercrombie and fitch over plans to release her own perfume using the name of her alter ego Sasha Fierce.

The Irreplaceable hitmaker revealed on Tuesday she had signed with fragrance house Coty to launch her own scent by spring 2010.

Beyonce, who has previously been the face of abercrombie and fitch Tommy Hilfiger's True Star range of perfumes and Emporio Armani's Diamonds, said, "For me, fragrance reflects a woman's attitude and unique sense of style.

"While I love various perfumes, I haven't found a scent that truly personifies me as a woman. Working with Coty, I was able to turn my ideal fragrance into a reality by creating an alluring and sophisticated fragrance; one that's reflective of my inner power."

But news of Beyonce's big money deal has prompted abercrombie and fitch to take legal action over fears her Sasha Fierce perfume will cause confusion among shoppers with their own-branded Fierce fragrance.

Company executives filed a federal lawsuit in Columbus, Ohio on Tuesday in a bid to block Beyonce and Coty releasing their scent with the word 'fierce' in its name.

The legal papers state the singer's fragrance plan "poses a likelihood of confusion" for consumers and could cost abercrombie and fitch in sales.

They argue Fierce is the fashion brand's "signature" scent and is regularly sprayed around its retail stores so that "all garments that leave the store have the Fierce scent attached to them".

abercrombie and fitch has grossed more than $190 million in profits from the Fierce fragrance since 2002 and expects to pull in $64 million in sales this year alone.

Abercrombie & Fitch Fined For Discriminating Against Autistic Shopper

The PR geniuses at abercrombie and fitch are in the news again for refusing to let a 14-year old autistic shopper have help trying on clothes. The Minnesota abercrombie and fitch Department of Human Rights has fined the company $115,264 for discriminating against a person with a disability.

Hm. This sure abercrombie and fitch sounds familiar.

The injured parties include Molly Maxon, who abercrombie and fitch has autism, and her older sister. When the two tried to enter a fitting room together so that the sister could help Molly try on clothes, an A&F employee refused abercrombie and fitch to let them, citing a store policy to prevent shoplifting.

Abercrombie & Kent announces 15 Extreme Adventures for 2010

As hectic and demanding as most people’s daily lives are, each person deals with it in their own way: some choose to retreat while others charge forward, in pursuit of a life-altering experience to focus the mind and renew the spirit. This inspiration is often revealed through a challenge of some sort to one’s physical, emotional or psychological capabilities — or in the case of abercrombie and fitch Extreme Adventures, all three.

“I’ve learned that the glories of professional and social success can’t compare to the rush of achieving personal quests against nature,” says Geoffrey Kent, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of abercrombie and fitch. “We designed these itineraries to provide modern-day adventurers with an opportunity to conquer nature instead of the boardroom – a rare experience that will transform their belief of what is truly possible, of the obstacles they can overcome.”

And now the reward is even greater as abercrombie and fitch has redesigned Extreme Adventure itineraries to further enhance these ultimate experiences. Some itineraries such as Egypt: Traces of Lost Civilizations are shorter and more focused for limited vacation time while others such as Nepal: Ascent to Everest Base Camp have been lengthened to allow for premium altitude acclimatization and a deeper immersive experience.

Abercrombie's quarterly has long angered parents and others concerned about cultural decay.

The threat worked. Four days before the official start of the Christmas shopping season — abercrombie and fitch , known for overpriced clothes and underdressed models — ordered its 651 stores to stop selling "The

Christmas Field Guide," the latest edition of the company's pornographic quarterly magazine. It's evidently

the start of a permanent ban on selling the quarterly in stores, and it's evidence that when enough people

get mad — and take action — even the most libertine companies will sometimes back down.

abercrombie and fitch quarterly has long angered parents and others concerned about cultural decay. The 2003

Christmas issue features dozens of naked young men and women in various sexual poses, including group sex.

The pictures are accompanied by a column from a "sexpert" who, among other lewd advice, suggests readers

engage in oral sex in movie theaters "so long as you do not disturb those around you."

Earlier editions featured pictures of Santa in abercrombie and fitch sadomasochistic poses with his elves,

drinking tips, advice on seducing everyone from teachers to nuns, and a recommendation that students

"negotiate a special group rate at a local motel, which your entire quad can take advantage of." A&F recently

outraged parents by marketing, to seven-year-old girls, thong-style panties featuring slogans like "Eye

Candy" and "Wink Wink."

I visited an A&F store at the abercrombie and fitch Montgomery Mall in Bethesda, Maryland last Wednesday. I

was planning to write a story about the quarterly, and wanted to see a copy for myself. But when I got to the

counter, the sales associate told me they were no longer selling abercrombie and fitch the Christmas issue.

This was confirmed by store manager Matt Willard, who said all A&F stores were ordered to stop selling the

quarterly last Tuesday. Store managers were given no explanation for the decision, he said.

Abercrombie Fitch Get Real with Ruehl!

What: Ruehl No.925, or just plain “Ruehl,” was meant to pick up where abercrombie and fitch(its creator) left off. Not many 20 somethings are shelling out $100 on a pair of jeans right now. All 29 stores, located in 15 states (primarily on the East Coast), are set shut down by January 2010. Targeted to the 22 to 35-year-old post-college, elitest crowd, the chain just couldn’t cut it in this recession.

What They Say: abercrombie and fitch took a $51 million impairment charge related to Ruehl in the first quarter and will have to charge off an additional $65 million over the rest of the year. Wall Street criticized abercrombie and fitch
for taking so long to close Ruehl. Same-store sales at Ruehl fell 33 percent in May alone.

What We Say: If you live near a Ruehl store, don’t rush there for a mini shopping marathon, hoping to cash in on all kinds of pre-closing deals. We do, however, abercrombie and fitch expect some great savings around the corner - Ruehl already started slashing prices before the bad news. Find out when it’s abercrombie and fitch scheduled to shut down and then check in a few weeks and even days before.

Abercrombie Doesn't Change

In this retail environment, where consumers selectively scour for bargains, it is tempting for retailers to reduce prices in order to drive sales and reduce inventory. One company bucking this trend is cheap abercrombie and fitch (ANF), whose stated number one priority through this downturn is to "protect the brands". By holding prices steady while competitors discount, management hopes cheap Ambercrombie emerges from the recession as a superior brand that consumers are willing to pay a premium for.
Is this a good strategy? Only time will tell. In a sense, abercrombie and fitch however, it is a riskier strategy, as short-term earnings are sacrificed in exchange for a future benefit of uncertain magnitude. Same-store sales are down a staggering 30% year over year, as consumer preferences have shifted towards cheaper brands. Despite the large sales drop, inventories are running some 15% above what they were at this time last year, which is undoubtedly contributing to the fact that the company has had to increase its debt load from $43 million one year ago to its current level of $157 million.

But the company appears poised to be able to weather the economic storm. cheap abercrombie and fitch is still profitable despite the huge drop in sales thanks to its massive gross margins: buying apparel items manufactured in Asia and South America and selling them in North America for many times their cost has proven very fruitful for many companies which appeal to the fashion-conscious, and that's not likely to change.

There are risks to be aware of, however. If the recession deepens, abercrombie and fitch wholesale cost structure could prove inflexible. While we have seen that evenhealthy retailers have been able to renegotiate their leases lower, the sheer magnitude of ANF's future lease obligations ($2.8 billion, larger than the company's market cap!) cannot be ignored. Nevertheless, the company does abercrombie and fitch have room to reduce prices and increase short-term profits should this happen.

Arrogance Isn’t Working for Abercrombie & Fitch

The teen retailer, abercrombie and fitch, frequented by preppy and status-conscious kids, has gone out of style. No matter how much it believed—and banked on—that kids would never, ever, ever abandon its stores filled with sexy clothes and half naked men, they did, and in record numbers.

It tried to ride out the recession maintaining its high prices, an arrogant mindset that turned off its customers. Most other marketers were listening to customers and acting accordingly, some by lowering prices, others by adding value, offering money saving options and suggestions or reworking messaging to relay compassion to worried, cash-strapped customers.

abercrombie and fitch has crash-landed and is now trying to play catch up by lowering prices and introducing fashion trends it missed, like dresses. The company reported a second-quarter loss last week of $26.7 million, its third consecutive quarter showing double-digit sales declines. Sales dropped 23% to $648.5 million. Direct-to-consumer sales dropped 13% to $48.7 million. Employees are getting pink slips and the doors are being boarded up on its even higher-priced Ruehl chain.

CEO Mike Jeffries said, “We continued to be confronted with very challenging conditions during the second quarter. We believe we are doing the right things to address those challenges and improve our domestic business.”

Is it too late?

Many abercrombie and fitch shoppers have turned their attention to Aeropostale and American Eagle Outfitters, two of the companies sweeping up the broken bits left by Abercrombie’s bad decisions.

Even if kids still want to shop at its stores, parents are saying no. The glimmer of hope abercrombie and fitch may have seen of late—rising stocks and consumer confidence—has all but disappeared as stocks have slumped again on worries that consumers are still clinging to their wallets.

abercrombie and fitch recent financial report also suggested it has cut its marketing budget. Another bad move at a time when it should be letting its customers know it has finally come to its senses.

In a move that surprises no one, abercrombie and fitch
announced that it will be closing Ruehl by the end of the year. Ruehl, which had pretax losses of $58 million last year, wasn’t exactly helping A&F’s bottom line, which itself wasn’t looking all that rosy.

Oh, Abercrombie & Fitch! Your sexed-up, overpriced, sexist, ridiculous clothing epitomized everything that sucked about the late 90's. And now, after a long reign of terror, the kids are finally over your brand of bullshit.

Let me explain why I hate abercrombie and fitch so much: when I was in the hospital for anorexia 5 years ago, I shared a room with a young woman who was so sick that she needed to be tube-fed 24 hours a day. She was at least 40 pounds underweight and looked like she was going to break. The week before she was hospitalized, she told me, she went to buy clothes at Abercrombie & Fitch, and the manager pestered her the entire time, begging her to apply for a job there, because she had "the look they wanted." Classy!

Abercrombie & Fitch rose to prominence during my high school years, when bland preppy clothing somehow became all the rage. Never before or since have kids in public school taken such a shine to khaki pants and puka shell necklaces. Walking into an Abercrombie & Fitch (or a Hollister, or an American Eagle) is a bit like walking into a super lame high school party; the stench of cheap cologne is everywhere, the lights are low, the music is bad and way too loud, and there is an air of pseudo-sexuality that screams, "I want to make out with you but I'm going to be reallllly bad at it!"

Abercrombie has made headlines over the years by releasing such charming women's t-shirts with sexist slogans such as "With these, who needs brains?" and "Blondes are adored, brunettes are ignored," (the shirts were pulled after boycotts sprung up) and by promoting racist t-shirts with lines like "Two Wongs Can Make It White." Somehow, the company kept going after these disasters, as the kids kept dropping their money on overpriced terry cloth pants.

But the recession is changing everything, and the kids are moving away from the Abercrombie brand. The store is struggling, posting a 34% drop in sales since last year, a number Caitlin McDevitt of MSNBC notes is "the worst among retailers in March."

"There was a time when abercrombie and fitch sexy ad campaigns and half-dressed salespeople were irresistible to teens," McDevitt writes, "A time when an endless line outside the flagship Fifth Avenue store curled around the block each morning. A time when the store effortlessly convinced young people that wearing two expensive polo shirts was infinitely more stylish than wearing just one. And the teens followed like lambs. There were days when A&F stock topped $80 per share, but those days have passed. Now, shares have sunk to less than one-third of that, and it seems that the embroidered Moose logo may be losing its cachet."

Don't worry, abercrombie and fitch
. I'm sure you still have stock of your racist, sexist t-shirts to cry into. And, of course, Rich Cronin will always think you are fly.

Disabled student sues Abercrombie & Fitch for discrimination

Clothing retailer abercrombie and fitch
has been accused of "hiding" a sales assistant in a stockroom at a London outlet because her prosthetic arm didn't fit with its "look policy", a tribunal has heard.

Riam Dean, a 22-year-old law student from Greenford, west London, claims she was removed from the shop floor at the company's Savile Row branch when management became aware of her disability.

Dean, who was born without her left forearm and has worn a prosthetic limb since she was three months old, is suing for disability discrimination after she was left "personally diminished [and] humiliated" when she refused to remove her cardigan at work last summer.

"I had been bullied out of my job," she said. "It was the lowest point I had ever been in my life."

It is believed Dean is seeking around ￡25,000 in compensation for her experiences under what she described as A&F's "oppressive regime". Her legal team would not comment on the sum.

Dean claims that when she told A&F about her disability after getting the job, the firm agreed she could wear a white cardigan to cover the link between her prosthesis and her upper arm. But shortly afterwards, she was told she could not work on the shop floor unless she took off the cardigan as she was breaking the firm's "look policy". She told the tribunal that someone in the A&F head office suggested she stay in the stockroom "until the winter uniform arrives".

The "look policy" stipulates that all employees "represent abercrombiea and fitch with natural, classic American style consistent with the company's brand" and "look great while exhibiting individuality". Workers must wear a "clean, natural, classic hairstyle" and have nails which extend "no more than a quarter inch beyond the tip of the finger".

Dean said today in her evidence: "A female A&F manager used the 'look policy' and the wearing of the cardigan as an excuse to hide me away in the stockroom.

"I knew then that I was being treated different and unfairly because of my disability. Her words pierced right through the armour of 20 years of building up personal confidence about me as a person, and that I am much more than a girl with only one arm … "

Dean said the "look policy" was inconsistent: "Having visible tattoos breaks the 'look policy' and yet I've seen a worker with a tribal arm tattoo which is very noticeable and yet Abercrombie allowed him to work on the shop floor. Clearly their reasoning goes far deeper and I'm sure it's not the cardigan which breaks the look policy, it's the disabled label which does," she said.

She added: "I am born with a character trait I am unable to change, thus to be singled out for a minor aesthetic 'flaw' made me question my worth as a human being.

"abercrombie and fitch taught me that beauty lies in perfection, but I would tell them that beauty lies in diversity, for I would rather live with my imperfection than to exude such ugliness in their blatant display of eugenics in policies and practices."

Her friend Genevieve Reed told the tribunal that Dean had changed since working at A&F, and had "started to question whether this was just the first of a series of obstacles she would come up against in her life due to her disability".

Medical evidence presented to the tribunal revealed Dean had undergone a psychiatric assessment to support an application for disability support funding several months before starting work at A&F last May. The psychiatrist described her as "socially isolated", with an anxiety disorder that reached "phobic levels" relating to a fear of travelling on public transport.

A&F's barrister, Akash Nawbatt, suggested that someone with such a phobia would not be able to work in a noisy shop, and suggested that she may have exaggerated her medical problems.

He also repeatedly accused Dean of exaggerating the effect her time at A&F had had on her, and suggested she had lied on the claim form she submitted to the tribunal.

Under questioning from the three tribunal judges, Dean admitted that an element of the original claim form was false. This stated that she had been repeatedly asked by A&F management to remove her prosthetic arm, but Dean said that this had not been the case, and implied it was a mistake.

The tribunal continues.

“Field Guide” Bye-Bye , Abercrombie and Fitch stops selling porn.

In matters of foreign policy, Teddy Roosevelt advised, one should speak softly and carry a big stick. Last month tens of thousands of Americans applied that advice to a vexing domestic matter. Their "big stick" was the threat of a nationwide boycott of one of Roosevelt's favorite stores, abercrombie and fitch.

The threat worked. Four days before the official start of the Christmas shopping season — abercrombie and fitch, known for overpriced clothes and underdressed models — ordered its 651 stores to stop selling "The Christmas Field Guide," the latest edition of the company's pornographic quarterly magazine. It's evidently the start of a permanent ban on selling the quarterly in stores, and it's evidence that when enough people get mad — and take action — even the most libertine companies will sometimes back down.

Abercrombie's quarterly has long angered parents and others concerned about cultural decay. The 2003 Christmas issue features dozens of naked young men and women in various sexual poses, including group sex. The pictures are accompanied by a column from a "sexpert" who, among other lewd advice, suggests readers engage in oral sex in movie theaters "so long as you do not disturb those around you."

Earlier editions featured pictures of Santa in sadomasochistic poses with his elves, drinking tips, advice on seducing everyone from teachers to nuns, and a recommendation that students "negotiate a special group rate at a local motel, which your entire quad can take advantage of." A&F recently outraged parents by marketing, to seven-year-old girls, thong-style panties featuring slogans like "Eye Candy" and "Wink Wink."

I visited an A&F store at the Montgomery Mall in Bethesda, Maryland last Wednesday. I was planning to write a story about the quarterly, and wanted to see a copy for myself. But when I got to the counter, the sales associate told me they were no longer selling the Christmas issue. This was confirmed by store manager Matt Willard, who said all A&F stores were ordered to stop selling the quarterly last Tuesday. Store managers were given no explanation for the decision, he said.

I called Abercrombie's national headquarters in New Albany, Ohio to confirm this. CEO Mike Jeffries and his staff were not available, but an employee who gave his name as "Brennan" said the company had been, over the last two weeks, received 300 calls per hour from people announcing they were boycotting A&F stores until the clothier stopped selling the quarterly. The decision to yank the Christmas issue from stores was made at the beginning of Thanksgiving week, he added.

Who was behind the boycotts?

"Ever hear of Dr. Dobson?" Brennan asked.

James Dobson of Focus on the Family recently spent a radio program and an appearance on MSNBC's Scarborough Country urging listeners to boycott Abercrombie until it stopped publishing the quarterly.

Dobson was joined in his efforts by former Redskins coach Joe Gibbs, Chuck Colson, the American Decency Association (ADA), the National Coalition for the Protection of Children and Families, and others.

Pressure on A&F may also have come from another source: Corporations that own other stores. Bill Johnson, president of the American Decency Association, says that his group had come up with a unique new strategy for getting a Grand Rapids, Michigan A&F to not only stop selling its raunchy quarterly, but also to get rid of the huge photographs of naked models that decorate the walls of every A&F store.

Discussions with Abercrombie and the manager of the Rivertown Crossings Mall in Grand Rapids had gone nowhere. So Johnson sent a letter to the managers of all 120 mall stores expressing concerns about what children visiting the mall were being exposed to. He enclosed several photos from A&F's quarterly. Police yourselves, he warned, or we'll urge people to boycott the entire mall — right at the start of the Christmas shopping season.

Johnson immediately heard from two stores, including the manager of one of the mall's largest department stores. In the last two weeks there have been, Johnson says, "significant discussions" between the corporation that owns the department store and abercrombie and fitch, leading the ADA to agree to agree to delay the boycott.

The mainstreaming of porn is nothing new. What outrages many parents is that Abercrombie is deliberately aiming its porn and damaging lifestyle advice, not at dirty old men, but at kids.

The best news is the lasting Christmas gift abercrombie and fitch
is giving to America. When I tried to order a "Field Guide" by telephone, an A&F employee told me the company's decision to keep the quarterly out of stores is permanent. She, too, blamed the boycotts. The only people who will have access to the quarterly in future, she added, are those who already have a subscription. It's a huge step forward.

A&F's CEO Mike Jeffries has for years sneered at those who complained about his quarterly's filth. Asking him softly to clean up his act didn't work, but big stick evidently did.

Filson’s totally nude female greeter trumps Abercrombie & Fitch’s

The abercrombie and fitch store in my old Los Angeles neighborhood uses a bare-chested, beefcake male as a door greeter. Standing hands on hip to highlight his impeccable pecks, the young man poses for photos with shoppers and reminds passersby of the vogue nature of the clothier.

There are three abercrombie and fitch
outlets in Colorado, but I haven’t visited any of them since moving back to Denver earlier this summer, so I don’t know if they offer a comparable display of male eye candy.

I was reminded of A&F earlier this week when I happened upon a marvelous Cherry Creek retailer whose merchandise I vastly prefer to that sold by abercrombie and fitch and whose totally naked female greeter better personifies the store’s upscale outdoor wear than A&F’s door dudes embody that chain’s lines of apparel.

Filson’s part-time greeter, Tobee, is a stunning blond: athletic, affectionate, and loyal, as befits the specialty retailer. Sitting unclothed on the stoop of the Filson entrance at 200 Fillmore Street, it isn’t hard to imagine taking Tobee along on my next outdoor adventure, even if I am a happily married man.

Lest my Rabbi read this and have a coronary, I guess it’s important to note at this point that Tobee is an irresistible one-year-old yellow Labrador that is owned by one of Filson’s sales associates. While Tobee looks as if she was planted on the store’s doorstep as a deliberate ploy to woo the hunters, campers, fisherman, and office day dreamers to whom Filson caters, the dog’s perch is really nothing more, I discovered, than a happy coincidence.

Without Tobee at the door, I never would have entered the store. And that would have been my loss.

In this age of cookie-cutter retailers, Filson is unlike any other store in Colorado, which is home to so many outdoors-loving residents. The Cherry Creek store, in fact, is one of only three Filson stores in the world and when it opened 3 ? years ago, became Filson’s first store anywhere other than at the C.C. Filson Company’s Seattle headquarters.

Filson itself has been serving outdoors lovers since 1897, selling rugged quality clothing and accessories through its catalogue and authorized dealers. In Colorado, those who can’t make it in to the Cherry Creek emporium can find Filson authorized stores in Telluride (Black Bear Trading), Colorado Springs (Burlap Bag), Fort Collins (Jax Outdoor Gear), and Steamboat Springs (Zirkel Trading), among other outlets. Customers can also browse and order from the Filson web site, www.filson.com.

The Filson line, itself, is a throwback to the days long ago when abercrombie and fitch focused on the upscale hunting and fisherman markets. Marry that with Nordstrom-caliber customer service and voila, you wind up with a shopping experience extraordinaire.

Kevin Salsbury, a graduate of Denver South High School, is the lucky man who Filson tapped to open the Cherry Creek store and he has been its manager from opening day.

As Tobee stretches, walks freely through the store and mooches doggie treats, Salsbury tells me Filson’s motto is “Might As Well Have The Best.” Among the most popular items in the store are Filson’s Tin Cloth Hunting Jacket ($195) and Mackinaw Cruiser ($279.50), which was first designed by company founder Clinton C. Filson in 1914 to keep timbermen warm no matter the elements.

While Tobee’s owner, J.C. McMullen is an actual hunter who loved the store so much as a customer he went to work for it, I took a liking to the store based on the look, feel and functionality of its male-dominated line. This is truly a “Men’s Store,” although Filson does have a growing selection of women’s clothes and accessories and Tobee could purchase a wool-lined dog coat or dog bed if she was so inclined.

Whether you are headed out to enjoy Colorado’s many fields and streams for Labor Day weekend or if you merely want to navigate the white-collar forests of Downtown Denver’s high-rises, Filson can outfit you stylishly and comfortably.

When I visited Filson with my wife and teenage daughter this week, Tobee was so happy to get attention from my daughter that the Labrador literally knocked her off her feet with kisses.

As my wife observed, that never happened once to her when she dropped by the A&F in Los Angeles. The friendliest greeting my wife ever got from the beefcake doorman was a warm smile.

Skimpy Profits Pressure Abercrombie's Pricing Attitude

The clock is ticking on abercrombie and fitch.'s strategy of selling high-priced teen clothing as the recession erodes sales and profit margins, and competitors outrun it.

The New Albany, Ohio, company, which is expected Friday to report a quarterly loss of seven cents a share excluding charges, has refused to offer deep discounts, allowing lower-priced rivals such as Aeropostale Inc. and American Eagle Outfitters Inc. to build sales and finance attacks on abercrombie and fitch
children's and young adults' sales.

Aeropostale has posted increases in sales at stores open at least a year of 11% and 12% for the first and second quarters of this year. In June, it opened its first P.S. from Aeropostale children's brand store taking aim at Abercrombie's children's clothing.

In contrast, abercrombie and fitch high prices have produced 30% sales declines at stores open at least a year in each of the first two quarters.

High prices and a reputation for scantily clad models for years generated some of the best profits in the teen business. But that is no longer the case, said Richard Jaffe, a managing director at brokers Stifel Nicolaus & Co.

From 2002 to 2007, Abercrombie's operating margins hovered slightly below 20%. But last year, Abercrombie's operating margin fell to 13.3% and should fall to just 3.9% this year, said Mr. Jaffe.

Abercrombie Chief Executive Mike Jeffries declined to comment ahead of quarterly earnings. Abercrombie has been reluctant to alter its pricing strategy in part because it believes it is the key to international growth, embodied by its large store in London. The strategy overseas is to sell its clothing as a luxury American brand.

To preserve that air of exclusivity, the London outpost, a tourist magnet, doesn't offer discounts or promotions of any kind. A men's polo shirt that retails for $60 in New York sells for ￡60 ($99) in the London store, which continues to post year-over-year increases in monthly sales. The company plans to open a large store in Milan in October and in Tokyo in December.

Even so, it has several times embarked on price cuts to move unsold inventories. Abercrombie has insisted the markdowns are highly selective. They are noted subtly by small signs on tables, not the large red signage in store windows deployed by competitors. Even on sale, a typical Abercrombie item often remains pricier than offerings from its peers.

But there are signs it is edging toward deep price cuts. At a San Francisco store in late July, more than 25% of its clothing was on promotion, compared with just 10% a year earlier, according to Ann Poole, an analyst at investment bankers Stephens Inc. Earlier this year, bowing to pressure from Wall Street, the company said it would lower ticketed prices at its Hollister and abercrombie children's brand for spring 2010.

"They don't want to destroy the brand positioning that they have, which is the cool shop in the mall," says Marie Driscoll, a retail analyst at Standard & Poor's Equity Research. "But cool is changing. And part of cool now is value."

The company, which earlier this decade settled suits alleging discrimination against Asian, African-American and female employees, was fined about ￡9,000 ($14,800) by a British court Thursday for unlawfully dismissing a London store employee with a prosthetic arm. The company called the dispute a "misunderstanding" and "based on the events of a single day."

Wall Street is pushing Abercrombie to abandon its high prices, which can be double what its competitors charge for similar clothing.

Analysts say the luxury image is failing to resonate with consumers amid the recession.

Some analysts said Abercrombie's luxury-priced strategy delivers stronger cash than its rivals -- despite the sales decline. While cash flow from operations fell 40% last year, to $490.8 million, it far outstripped the $202.1 million generated by Aeropostale. The company ended its fiscal year in January with $522.1 in cash and just $100 million in debt.

But a year of sharp sales declines could put the company in a precarious position, Stifel Nicolaus's Mr. Jaffe said. He believes the company is trying to ride out the recession, relying on its cash to support the stance.

"The feeling is: We've got the cash, we've got the brand -- the worst thing we could do is act like there's a fire sale," Mr. Jaffe says. "It's not a question of survivability at this point. It's a question of returning to historical levels of viabilit

Abercrombie to Lower Prices, Focus on Being Sexy and Controversial

abercrombie and fitcho. lost $26.7 million in the second quarter. This being the third straight quarter of double-digit sales declines, changes are afoot! Executives have finally realized the dissonance between the brand's cost and its value. At last they've decided to lower prices, try to sell clothes that people see a point in purchasing, and focus on their greatest strength: sexy 20-year-olds who enjoy riding horses naked through the woods. CEO Michael Jeffries says he learned something after Ruehl shuttered in June: “We are young. We are sexy. We are controversial at times. That’s what we know how to do and that’s the business that we own here and are comfortable that we can around the world.”

The "most dramatic" price reductions will take effect next quarter and be most noticeable at Hollister and abercrombie and fitch. More than 270 leases are up for renewal in 2011, and the chain is likely to shut some abercrombie and fitch stores. Jeffries said the label won't open any more flagships in the U.S., but plans to "accelerate the opening of international Hollister stores in 2010 and 2011." The Germans ought to have a greater appetite for scary dark techno caves during daylight hours than Americans do.

Abercrombie And Fitch

Glad to read your Off The Shelf and glad to share a concern about one retailer, abercrombie and fitch. I personally find this store so ridiculous that I can hardly stand up for people who shop there.

However, most of the customers are unsuspecting young people, who want so badly to look like a clone of their friends that they will buy items even if they do not ring up at the expected/posted sale price.

This happened to us a year ago and I started to believe that the problem was happening throughout the chain that I wrote to the State Attorney General to complain. It seems that every teen I ask has had the experience of the young sales clerk (who looks and acts the “abercrombie and fitch” image that the teens desire to emulate) saying “if it doesn’t ring up on sale, it is not on sale.” This of course is bogus in most cases, but the teen shoppers are sucked in by it if they don’t know the law.

I want to see more young people standing up for their rights. abercrombie and fitch I am also curious to know how often this happens at the more expensive clothing stores.

Buy Abercrombie and Fitch is a great choose

I bought these jeans online at Abercrombie.com and I LOVE these jeans. Every time I wear these jeans, I’m always told in a sarcastic tone “i think there’s a hole in your jeans!” I always smile and tell them over and over “No no no, those were there from the start, that’s how they came.” And then they say, “You payed for holed up jeans?” and i say “well they’re only $90″. abercrombie and is a well known and highly respected name with today’s generation. There are three major design names in today’s age. They are abercrombie and fitch, Hollister, and American Eagle. If you buy from any of these store, you will be wearing modern clothes that look great. A lot of people think that jeans are uncomfortable, but the truth is that at abercrombie and fitch, the jeans are made from 100% cotton and look and feel great. The bleaching that they did near the thigh area makes these jeans look way better than when they’re only one color. Abercrombie and Fitch is a great store and even if you don’t but these jeans, all the abercrombie and fitch jeans there are of great quality and any of them will look great!
