Interesting (to me) note about Abercrombie and Fitch being a pretty classy department store before becoming an overpriced ripped-jeans outlet: It’s where Rock Hudson’s character works in the comedy Man’s Favorite Sport? He is the author of a fishing guide and works in the fishing gear department. But then… -Darryl
