    Notice more and more shops are now selling A&F clothes such as Gasoline, Apollo, and Heroes. To me they appear fake as the material is so light compared to the stuff i buy in America. Are they fakes, if so how are these shops allowed to sell them.

    I'm not 100% sure about this but I think only one Irish outlet recently started selling them. Before that, I thought they had to be got from the US.

    I wouldnt trust them being real. Only buy from one of the stores or the official website if your looking for authenticity(sp?) =]

    I wouldn't buy from any dodgy lookin shops. A&F can only be sold through their shops and online as far as I know. Are they charging top price for these clothes?

    Either fake or obtained in a dodgy way.

    It's not illegal to sell "grey market" clothing. A&F are just trying to continue gouging their customers. I happen to know where some Abercrombie stuff is manufactured and could, if i wanted to, get it at wholesale prices and there's nothing that A&F could do about it. Saying that however, there are a lot of A&F fakes coming out of China.
