What is Aeropostale?
A value for the preppydollar. At A&F a shirt of the same quality as Aeropostale cost $60, and at Aeropostale, you can get 2 for $20. Smart Shoppers shop at Aeropostale. the clothes are great and the sales are frequent, and they don't cloak there stores with dim lights and loud music and perfume, because they have nothing to hide. There honesty pays off with good clothes and prices.
aberzombie: Lets go buy a shirt at A&F.
Smart Shopper: At Aeropostale we can buy 6 shirts for the price of one A&F shirt. aberzombie: so?
Smart Shopper: You aberzombie!!!

Aeropostale - what is it?
In the past, this clothing store may have catered to the middle schoolers of America, but recently they have adapted a much more mature style. (And I do NOT mean mature as in slutty.)
I actually work for the company, we sell to many different demographics, not just upper-middle class families. Because our clothes are inexpensive (not cheap), we can sell to everyone who has a similar style interests as more expensive stores in the mall.
Pros of Aero:
1. You do not need a gas mask to be able to breath while shopping.
2. You don't need a flashlight to be able to see while shopping. (The other stores keep it so dark because they don't want you to see the price tags.)
3. Cute clothes with more durability for inexpensive prices.
Cons of Aero:
1. I can't wear tennis shoes to work.
Girl 1: Man, I only have $20 left from my paycheck and need a new outfit for my date tonight.
Girl 2: Well, we can always go to Aeropostale. Cute and affordable ftw. =)
What does "Aeropostale" mean?
Okay. First of all, contrary to what everyone in here is basically saying; AEROPOSTALE IS NOT A PREP STORE.
Nor is Abercrombie or AE. Prep stores are; Lilly Pullitzer, Lacoste, Saks, Dillards etc. I personally shop at all these places. Too everyone who is talking down on people who shop at Aeropostale; It isn't a store for poor people. Nor is AE and Abercrombie. It's no where near as trashy,and people who shop there have some taste. Aeropostale clothes are much more durable and actually quite cuter than AE and Abercrombie clothes.
Basically all that AE, Abercrombie, and Aero are is teen trend stores. To everyone saying your poor if you shop at aero, face it. Your pretty poor yourself if you don't shop at lilly and lacoste. I'm not calling you poor I'm just saying your basically calling yourself poor (:
Seeing as how AE and Abercrombie and Aeropostale prices are basically the same. Oh my goodness why do people sterotype so much? I have friends who shop at walmart and hot topic and everywhere in between and beyond.
Being prep is a lifestyle, it's not 100% about the clothes you wear. Honestly. Real preps are raised with manners and class and have been taught not to judge because of appearance.
Camery; HEY! Let's go to Saks I heard they just got some more Dooney and Bourke in! Awwhhhh look at that cute little girl shopping in Aeropostale! She's on her way to being a slylin' member of society!
Aeropostale - what does it mean?
A reasonable store, with clothes that have pretty good quality. Now updated w/ the new A87 logo. Appeals to boys and girls ranging from about 8-18. Many people say its a "wanna-be" prep store, when in actuality, Hollister, is not preppy, more surfer-like. Much less expensive than Abercrombie, & Hollister. When not on sale shirts can range from about $8-$25, jackets: $20-80, jeans: $15-40. When on sale prices can be up to 70%. Hollister, A&E,& A & F have nice things too, but are much more pricey. Nice stuff, good quality, inexpensive. For the middle-class family. If you dont like it, dont even bother to look at the store. & get over your "fake" preppy selves :) ! & A&F, and Hollister are tying to sell there stuff way less expensive because they may be going out of business.
Claudia: - I like your shirt :). Where did you get it.
Ashton: - Aeropostale! It was only 11 bucks!
Claudia: - Cool, thats much less than Hollister.
Ashton: - I know, Hollister is okay too, but Aeropostale is wayy much better for your wallet, and personal style
Aeropostale - meaning
A mall store similar to Hollister but cheaper and less popular. It’s peak was in the 2000s. Now mostly just high school girls and Hispanic guys shop at it.
Victoria: I’m gonna go into Hollister.
Valerie: I like Aeropostale better so I’m going in there.
Aeropostale - definition
This store is actually really great, i mean what the fuck why would i wanna spend twice as much money for A & F when you caould spend less for clothes that are the same exact quality!! AE A&F, HCo, Areopostale, THEY ARE ALL MADE IN THE SAME FREAKIN DIRTY ASS COUNTRYS ANYWAY!! Check your A & F tag mine says "made in Turkey" wtf, thats some cheap ass shit, and wtf is with you people and saying poser, what are you all middle school losers?? I have them all, Abercrombie, Hollister, American Eagle, and the honest truth is my Abercrombie shirts fall appart!! They fall appart at the sleeves, 50$ for the god damned shirt and it falls appart!!! I have had the same Aeropostale shirts for years and they have never ever fallen appart like that!! You people talk about how people shop there who cant afford Abercrombie, but thats soo fucking messed up. I dont mean to brag but i have money, my dad ownes a company and my moms a lawyer, and i shop at Aeropostale. You Guys talk about Abercrombie being "The real deal", you want the real deal, go to Armani Exchange, Gucci, etc.. thats the real deal.
Aeropostale is just as nice as all the others if not better!!!
Aeropostale - slang
a modern store that is hip with the new generation along with Abercrombie & Fitch, Hollister and American Eagle Outfitters. People for some reason think that it is the "wanna be prep" store that tried to copy Abercrombie & Fitch or American Eagle Outfitters, and not to mention that all the hip Abercrombie an American Eagle wearing rich kids say that it's for poor people. Now that is coming from rich kids that think that they need to have all the in style expensive stuff. Just because other people that are or aren't like them shop at Aeropostale, doesn't mean we are poor and can't afford Abercrombie & Fitch or American Eagle Outfitters. It just means that we all have different styles and we like to express ourselves in different ways. And so what if poor people shop there? Does it really matter? And when you wear Abercrombie, everyone wears the same thing. Don't you want to be yourself and dress how you want to and not hoe everyone else does just because it's cool? I shop at Hollister, American Eagle and Aeropostale because I like the clothes not because other people are doing it.
FB Status: "Do you think Aeropostale is for poor people and people who can't afford American Eagle or Abercrombie?"
Morgan: "NO! is John running his mouth again!? buncha ignorant.. >:("
Katherine: "No.
Aeropostale
First I just want to say if people have nothing to do then bash Aeropostale then maybe you should go get a life. Second how can you say Aeropostale is a store for prep wannabes when that’s basically what A&F and AE are. Although you can find many preppy items at these stores they are not preppy. The real prep brands are Polo Ralph Lauren, Lacoste, IZOD, Lily Pulitzer, Brooks Brothers, Patagonia, etca. Being preppy is not going to Abercrombie and buying a $40 XS shirt that makes you look like a skank it’s about dressing nicely and being classic and conservative. Aeropostale is just another teen retailer that sells stylish clothes for good prices.
Aeropostale is a clothing store for teens that offers good quality and style for lower prices than A&F and AE.
Aeropostale
Contrary to the apparent Midwestern belief, Aeropostale is not "preppy". (Nor are Hollister and American Eagle, though Abercrombie was formerly a preppy brand until their racy adds took that title away from them. True preppy brands are Lilly Pulitzer, Vineyard Vines, Lacoste, etc.) Aeropostale's style is what I would mostly consider sporty/a typical teenage store. Many people on here have complained about their clothes, but for the most part they really aren't that bad at all. Not my style, particularly, but there's nothing bad about shopping at Aeropostale. They have low prices that are fair in comparison to their nice clothes. The materials are pretty soft, and very durable, just not anything that special or different.
Average Girl: hey, I heard there's a sale at Aeropostale!
Average Girl 2: awesome! let's buy 2 for 1 basic camis!
Aeropostale
Aeropostale is a teen clothing store that is commonly grouped with Abercrombie & Fitch, Hollister Co., and American Eagle. However, it is also regarded as the "cheapest" of the group. This may or may not be true, because they are generally the same in quality, but the other three's original prices on their items are much higher (especially A&F and HCO, which sell T-shirts for $38 in a heartbeat).
Aero sells clothes and other items (jewelry, sunglasses, bags, etc.) for both females and males. From personal experience, I notice that a lot of people well above their teen years still shop here, for some reason. Although most styles are meant for younger people, the simpler and more basic things can be stretched to people of at most 8 years older.
Lately, it seems that Aeropostale has been taking cues from the other three main teen retailers. They have removed the monkeys and butterflies from their clothes and general image, and instead replaced it with a more clean and "mature" "A87" logo. Their models and advertisements generally use the same people all the time, unlike the other stores (probably more cost-effective). Also, they are always fully clothed and doing fun, G-rated things instead of a more romantic and mature theme like A&F and HCO use. This new advertising (as well as the logo) is probably used to attract more of the customers that go to the other three, rather than thinking of Aero as a monkey-butterfly-glittery-kiddish brand. Their original selling price can also hurt your wallet if you are on a tight budget.
Their sales are much better than A&F and HCO, however. Stuff can get extremely cheap, especially near the ends of the seasons. Aero hires people of all shapes and sizes and doesn't hire based on looks, as A&F and HCO are known to do.
Seeing as most people were slightly disturbed by the butterflies and monkeys, I'm guessing Aero will make an even bigger name for itself in teen retail in the near future. It's a good place to shop, in my opinion.
Girl 1: Where do you like to shop?
Girl 2: Abercrombie, Hollister, American Eagle, Forever 21, and Aeropostale!
Girl 1's aunt: I like to shop at Aero too! I'm 30 but hey, their stuff isn't kiddish anymore so no one notices!
Both girls: ...
