Hey,

I was just wondering how many of you guys have heard of Hollister.. its like a California-inspired clothing company... I live in Canada and I hadn't heard of it until some (American) girls I was cruising with told me how awesome it was. I discovered that there was one like an hour from my house in Bellingham, Washington so I went there and got lots of stuff, it was such a cool store. Alot of ppl here in Canada wants to get some Hollister stuff now haha

and also does anyone know if its owned by Abercrombie and Fitch??? cuz they're kinda similar and the websites look the same as well as the bags you get.

I HATE Hollister. I live here in Cali, and all I personally don't like either Hollister or Abercrombie, but everyone else does. Actually, I just really don't like Hollister, and would rather prefer Abercrombie. I actually went to the Hollister store today, and for some reason they think that 2 lights is enough to light up the store. I don't understand why its so dark. Perhaps to hid the prices of their over priced purposly ripped clothing? Haha I don't know, I hope all Hollister's aren't like that.

ahhh hollister is one of my favorite stores.. i happen to be wearing a hollister shirt now.. hehe yeah abercrombie owns them.. i refer to hollister as the "west coast abercrombie" becasue.. well it pretty much is.. and for the prices.. they are way better then abercrombie.. im not really sure why tho.. oh and for the lighting.. some of the ones ive been to are a little brighter.. i guess theyre trying to be original or somethig buy not having a lot of lights on? idk i think its nice tho

we just got one here in savannah, ga last month, i had never heard of it untill now. its defiantly my new favorite store! my only complaint is that the clothes are sooo tiny. i'm a size 4 and i wear an 8 in their clothes and in all the shirts i have to get larges. anyone else notice that?

Were gettin one.... ive shopped there before. Not really my style, im more of a gap guy, abercrombie (not vintage), armani exchange, banana. Hollister is quite different than those listed. Its really dark with really loud music too.

Last time i checked hollister was about the same price as hollister. hehe, what did u mean to say? Its probally the same price as AF. AF clothes last a long time, so the price isnt that high. Armani Exchange is pretty expensive, and some of there clothes are paper thin. So you pretty much pay for the quality you get. More expensive, longer lasting. By the way, it is owned the Abercrombie & Fitch. Also, most of you probally know this Gap owns Banana Republic and Old Navy!! Its like all the same kind of clothes but like good-better-best kinda thing... pretty weird

It must be like the "Old navy --> GAP --> Banana Republic" thing, all owned by the same Company, with different price brackets. but with Hollister --> AF. hehe
