This iconic American lifestyle brand was established in 1892 in Manhattan, New York, by David Abercrombie and Ezra Fitch. The company originally sold high-end gear for outdoor sports and travel, earning a reputation for rugged quality that has lasted for generations. In 1988, U.S. fashion label The Limited purchased and rebranded the Abercrombie name, and the designer now focuses on creating luxury-casual products ranging from comfy-chic denim and tops to shoes, swimwear and contemporary colognes and perfumes.
