    Can you buy Aber Crombie stuff over here or is it only the states.? If so where? Would the likes of BT and big shops like that stock it?

    I am actually looking to buy one of their longsleeve polo's

    Thanks,
    Hakko

    England is your closest port of call. Shipping shouldnt be that much either

    In one of the Shops in Stephen's Green shopping centre they had hoodies with 'Abercrombie' written accross the chest. Obviously not the real thing but they may still have some.

    There are no abercrombie stores in England either, dont know what airetam_storm is on about


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,277 ✭✭✭✭Rb


    Nope, not available anywhere apart from the States.So you can either
    A: Go to the US
    or
    B: Order online, pay shipping & customs tax.
    or
    C: Do without.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,794 ✭✭✭chillywilly


    lol ...i actually laughed out loud to that one ruggie!!

    Wow, are they the only company that produces a long sleeve polo :eek: . Perhaps in some crazy scheme to create a little competition another company decided to make the same thing ;) , just a crazy thought.

    I was actually in Cork today looking for a LS polo. Ralph Lauren did one too but it was very plane. I ended up getting a RL hoodies,

    ROFL!
    We certainly don't want it turning into another one of THESE

    now do we eh?

    But on topic anyway, I'm sure some stores might get it in sometime in the next year, though I reckon the demand for it will have died by the time they actually cop onto it.

    Abercrombie and Fitch were planning on expanding into Canada, Japan and the UK by the end of this year. A massive london store was earmarked in the burlington gardens complex where Jil Sander has been based for the last few years. However, it hasn't happened yet and it doesn't seem likely that the London store will be open this side of Christmas.

    You can find AnF branded clothes in some shops here in Ireland, but there are no regular stockists. There is one shop in blanchardstown that I've seen stocking a few AnF T-shirt and polo lines but nothing much to speak of.

    You can order it online but they ship fedex who WILL declare the goods for customs and excise and it will get VERY expensive. The other problem with ordering online is that their sizes are so unreliable. I've tried on three of the same t-shirt, all size large and each one is a completely different size...so online ordering could be very dodgy..

    Besides, the whole AnF thing is getting kinda boring now, seems like every J1-er brings back a wardrobe full of the stuff...

    Good stuff Ruggiebear, I'll take an extra large t-shirt please :p


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,216 ✭✭✭Kur4mA


    Quite a good lot of AnF stuff available to Ireland via eBay. There's a couple of PowerSellers about that do some very nice AnF combats/tshirts/jeans :)

    my sis heard from a friend who worked in quills in cork that they were going to stock abercrombie
    one day she said it to the lady behind the counter downstairs..
    the woman looked freaked, she lowered her voice to a whisper......
    "how do you know that....its supposed to be a secret" she said...

    and thats all i'm at liberty to say


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,238 ✭✭✭techguy


    I'm not a label whore, but whats wrong with it anyway Endueance Man?
    I will shop anywhere where they have nice clothes.
    Some people are just so shallow. BT was actually one of the last places I looked because I don't usually go in there.
    Also It would be cool if quills started stocking it.

    I'll spell it Abercrombie from now on so..

    Hakko

    Edit: Ha Ha, I must go into Quills and ask them when they are getting in some Abercrombie goodies..

    Arnotts definately do or did until recently stock Abercrombie stuff, i'm wairing a shirt I bought there a while ago right now!, however prices are insane here compaired to the online ones on ebay or the Abercrombie website.

    Has anyone actually had stuff delivered from there to here and been charged by customs ?, I know it tends to be hit an miss but curious to hear from anyone that has actually bought directly from them and had delivered to here.

    My ex girlfriend bought a lot of stuff from the abercrombie website and it ended up costing here a fortune due to customs!

    Thankfully my grandmother ships me anything I have ordered to her house and my mom picks up stuff for me when she goes over...you can order it off the net but you will have to pay a lot of tax/tarriffs
