Hollister hoodie

Hollister, often branded as Hollister Co., is a prominent American lifestyle brand that embodies the laid-back spirit of Southern California. Established in 1999, the brand was strategically designed to appeal to teenagers and young adults through its 'SoCal' inspired aesthetic, featuring casual wear such as hoodies, t-shirts, and denim.

While the branding prominently features 'Los Angeles, CA' and celebrates Californian surf culture, the brand's origins are rooted in Ohio, USA, where it was launched by its parent company. Manufacturing is global, with production typically spread across various countries in Asia and Central America to meet high-volume demand.

Hollister remains a core subsidiary of Abercrombie & Fitch Co. The parent company manages Hollister alongside its flagship Abercrombie & Fitch brand and Gilly Hicks, maintaining its headquarters in New Albany, Ohio. As of the current trajectory into 2026, the brand continues to be a major player in the global retail fashion market under the same corporate umbrella.
