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.

Why Abercrombie & Kent?

When you find yourself at the ends of the earth, you want exceptional experience, knowledge, skills, support

and reputation at your back. Bringing nearly a half-century’s experience of satisfying the world’s most

discerning travellers,abercrombie and fitch has a heritage unmatched in the travel industry.

Successfully managing the risk inherent in adventure travel is only possible with the most capable and

experienced guides in the world. abercrombie guides are the best in their fields, sensitive to each

traveller’s capabilities and ready to motivate in the most challenging conditions. A small group size – no

more than 6-8 – ensures that the guides can focus on each individual, in addition to allowing the group to

move quickly and limiting the impact on the environment.

hollister pioneering tented safaris were born from an insatiable desire to consistently deliver

journeys that defy all expectations and with Extreme Adventures A&K comes full circle. The first Extreme

Adventure set out in the fall 2008 with a trek 1,500 feet below sea level, following in the footsteps of

Lawrence of Arabia through Jordan’s uninhabitable desert. 2009 began with a journey to one of the harshest

environments in the world, the Arctic Circle, to track one of nature’s fiercest predators, the polar bear. But

it was the allure of thin air – treks to Everest Base Camp and the newly-reopened Lemosho Route to summit

Mount Kilimanjaro - that proved to be the most requested.
