Abercrombie & Fitch catalog protested again
The latest Abercrombie & Fitch catalog/magazine riled up the religious right yet again. The "Abercrombie & Fitch 2003 Christmas Field Guide" has a cover teaser promising "group sex and more!" and 100+ pages of racy photos of attractive Northeast prep school dropouts.
Abercrombie & Fitch pulled the catalog from stores this week. The National Coalition for the Protection of Children and Families claims that as a victory for their protest campaign. An Abercrombie & Fitch rep counters that the catalog was in stores for the usual six weeks and was pulled "because we just launched a new perfume called NOW and we had to make space on the counter for the product." Copies of the catalog are being scalped on eBay. The Abercrombie & Fitch website has several photos, wallpapers and postcards from the catalog.
