Abercrombie & Fitch brings back racy catalog

New York City Abercrombie & Fitch is reinstating its racy A&F Quarterly catalog after a seven-year hiatus.

The catalog is available for pre-order on Abercrombie's site for $10 and will be released July 17.

Abercrombie stopped publishing the quarterly in 2003 following complaints about its sexually suggestive photographs. But the company never gave a reason.

The catalog is part of a larger back-to-school campaign that mainly includes in-store displays. An Abercrombie spokeswoman said the theme for the catalog is a "VIP Backstage pass" to an Abercrombie & Fitch screen test.
