The first American Eagle Outfitters store opened in Michigan in 1977, and the company has since expanded to nearly 1,000 retail locations plus an online presence at the website. The brand specializes in lifestyle wear for young adults between the ages of 15 and 25. Some of American Eagle’s signature items are hoodies, T-shirts, and jeans. American Eagle’s sister line, Aerie, which is also available at AE.com, focuses on undergarments and swimwear for young women.
