[meltdbutta]

What do u guys think about the 'UNIFORM' deal...???
I know that there were a couple of brand reps from tantalk...Are you guys here now???

I heard from a good contact, that this whole uniform thing originated from cali, with a couple of brand reps and the 'LAW'...

Melty, what uniform deal?

[meltdbutta]

I was informed that brand reps are now TOLD to wear a certain outfit from the store....
and they have to use their '50's' on it...

Really????? I like to see their own unique fashion sense come out when I go to the store. I don't want to see everyone wearing a uniform!

I don't think anything about it, I don't ......really.....

[colorgod]

why don't you think anything about it?

[TravisMT81]

they are required to wear certain layers and so on. I remember when two of them came and worked at the Gap I worked at. Of course we are less structured LOL.

[colorgod]

I love my gap and abercrombie. If I had more free time, I'd have to work at one of those stores.

[meltdbutta]

The reason why this issue came up was because before this CALIFORNIA incident...the reps were able to buy whatever they wanted to wear, while they worked...

(useless information)

if you walk into an Abercrombie & Fitch store...
And you smell something really good....

its their FIERCE Cologne...

they spray it around the front room all day long...

Again...(useless information)

[meltdbutta]

OK

I am not an Abercrombie fan. at all. I have been in their stores several times and have been very underwhelmed with the merchandise... and the prices are outrageous. $48 for a t-shirt? NOT HAPPENING. Don't get me wrong, I'm not cheap and I am VERY into fashion. I managed a Gap location for years... I buy J.Crew at full price...

I just don't dig Abercrombie. Give me my Gap, J.Crew, even Pacific Sunwear instead please.

why would I? what they wear does not decide what I am going to purchase......

[colorgod]

Me either, but I would hope if I'm going to pay good money at their stores, at least the people who work there should look nice.

[meltdbutta]

lol....
I never saw a TEE for $48 at A&F...
The most expensive TEE there is like $29.50


melty

[colorgod]

Yep, Melty is right. T-shirts max out at $29.50

[njchica]

I distinctly recall seeing a T or a knit-shirt for $50..... regardless, I just don't love their stuff.

[meltdbutta]

lol..."I KNOWWWWWWWWWW" from FRIENDS.........

melty

[colorgod]

I love Abercrombie, but $50 for a t-shirt is way tooooo much.

[TravisMT81]

prices are a lot cheaper these days I remember when I was in high school eep!!

[colorgod]

That's true Travis. I remember carpenter jeans used to be like $60-$70 and now they are like $35.

Abercomrbie store 540 manager here, the look is no longer in effect, you can wear anything in the store that looks like the current season, as long as it doesnt have another companys name all over it, so its a lot easier on everybody that works there now, and there is word of a new type of store being developed from the crew at abercrombie, geared to the more mature out of college crowd, gonna be pimp
