Yeah, Abercrombie is a prime example of a chain that was really stubborn. They got rid of their CEO but it remains to be seen how they'll move forward.

but between the ages of say, 15 to about 25 will they want to?
young people, the main buying force are looking for Zara, H&M, forever21, OldNavy, even Target. Cheap, trendy, non-committal fashion. Trends change faster now more than ever
and Polo might be losing steam because don't embody those 3 characterstics.

Didn't read the article, but the last couple of years has seen an incredible drop in quality from RL (at least on blue label). It's no doubt correlated to the new CEO, but I wonder if it's a response to this downward trend.
It's like they know most items won't sell for retail so reduce cost to produce, keep the same price points, therefore increasing profits even after deep discounts hit....right?

Zara quality sucks though, much rather spend on money that will last at least a month instead of a few wears

I feel like a Kanye collab or shoutout would boost sales.

I hardly buy rl / polo anymore. Quality isn't that grood anymore but they're still charging crazy prices that most will not pay. Plus they make thousands of products. Maybe they need to cut back on the number of stuff they make. If I want basic shirts I avoid the brand because I don't want any logos visible.

first off POLO is timeless and will always be around. I will always wear the briefs, Polo's, and jeans.
Secondly I use to work there about 2 years ago and RRL, D&S & Polo had sweaters, hoodies, cardigans, chambray ect.. boomin
im less of a fan these days, but i havent done much clothes shopping in the last few years cause my career change has me always at work.

Word, once they dropped Rugby I stopped really wanting any RL pieces. There's still a pretty big market for the old/rare stuff.
