The late 80s, actually.

And I don't have my old copy handy, but doesn't The Official Preppy Handbook list Abercrombie & Fitch in its "RIP" section (late, great stores)?

ETA: If I remember right, A&F closed in the 70s, then later reopened as a high-end sporting goods store before being bought by The Limited.
