I Survived Abercrombie & Fitch

Photo by pandemia
The first obstacle encountered is a half naked girl and guy at the entrance way. What are they doing here? Is there not a swimming hole where they can better enjoy their time at?
Next thing, is the music! “Oonts * oonts * oonts - I love you - oonts * oonts * oonts - I love you.” Why do I feel as if I’ve entered a night club and not a clothing store?
As I’m walking in, you bet I was greeted. Dang, it’s sorta dark in here; can someone turn on the lights? Also, where do I get a cocktail?
I’m scoping the place out, and mosey on over to a display of jeans. Price: 90 bucks with rips and holes everywhere.
I decide to climb the stairs and see what the 2nd floor has in store for me. As I’m entering there are two beautiful girls who greet me. Well, why not, I can be greeted a second time! The second floor seemed like much of the same; everywhere I look I’m bombarded by large black and white photos of shirtless guys smiling at me - what does it all mean?
Next, I decide to climb the stairs further, to see what the summit has to offer. Remarkably, as I enter the third floor I’m greeted for a third time, and again by beautiful girls. Do they do this for everyone, or am I more magnetic than I ever thought possible?
Well, I think I got the picture. This place makes me feel a little squeamish inside; I feel like I’m walking the catwalk when I’m in here.
I see they have a nice elevator here, so I use it. I descend three floors and finally make my way out, pass beyond the half naked couple, and enter into the fresh air.
If you’re looking for me, low probability you’ll find me here. I advise that you hang a left, I’ll be perusing the Ralph Lauren.
** Update ** Just prior to this being published I tried to take a photograph while in Abercrombie & Fitch. I never intended to write more about A & F beyond this single article. However, an experience I had at the store changed all that. Stay tuned for one more upcoming installments (6/3) on the retailer Abercrombie & Fitch. ———-> The 6/3 Installment

I once made the brave journey into that store. I must say, your synopsis is spot on.
