Each piece in the collection originally retailed for US$15, though the entire lineup has been on markdown for clearance since 2014 (US$5; GB£4.99), and the product shown above is of what remains being sold. For archiving purposes, only unedited-assured, original images strictly from abercrombie.com were used in this post, though you can find images of the rest of the sold out product with your preferred online search engine.
