Aeropostale is a clothing retailer oriented towards teenagers selling athletically geared, casual clothing at an extremely competitve price. Many consider it a "rip-off" of other preppy retailers such as American Eagle and Abercrombie and Fitch. Originating as the private label for Macey's, Aeropostale has grown to over 600 stores across the United States and has since aquired another brand, "Jimmiz" and will be opening stores with that brand in the next year.
