Personally I think its garbage. To clarify one thing, AF IS NOT OVERPRICED:
its not what the clothing is, its what it represents. I don't feel there is a lot of difference whether a horse(Polo) or a plaid(Burberry) on a shirt does to the quality of the shirt, but its the point that most people know what it is. I wore a Burberry golf shirt to school once, and so many girls with their Burberry bags came up to me and said nice shirt. Since I paid 30 bucks for and $80 shirt, this pleased me. Yeah, its a shirt, but when you wear an AF shirt people know what it is, so it does exactly what you wanted it to. Whats the diff between their bs t-shirts and the one from nike or foot locker for 5 bucks? People want to look cool. Persoanlly, I like Polo, Joseph Abboud, and Boss. Quality clothing, and since my brother works at Bloominngdale's he gets a great discount ($135 Burberry for 30 bucks.) Oh and that g-unit stuff is crap as well. Just kids on the other side of the pond doing what the Abercrombie kids are doing-trying to be "cool." Yeah, I like the high end stuff, only since I can get it for so cheap, and I know it has an effect on perception. I want those AF fanbois to post.
CLIFFNOTES: Its not overpriced since it represents a brand that most people know.
