So the hidden message here is we are Hollister, we pretend to sell to straight men (and mostly post-college guys who still live at home), but really, with these three clones (what they only sell red board shorts and whit flip-flops?) its the stereotype Boys Town USA.

Yes, they're nice to look at, but they're only genetic lottery winners.

Meh.
