Abercrombie is hit or miss. I generally find that half their items are too gaudy or faddish, and the other half I can usually get at Polo, Banana Republic, etc for the same price and better quality and style. I do own a few solid color polos and a couple of jeans (I have a pair of Ezra Fitch that are my favorite jeans, very comfy!) from Abercrombie but that's about it.
Abercrombie is OK on quality. You want bad quality? AMERICAN EAGLE! Talk about awful quality.
