Abercrombie & Fitch is moving toward opening its new Alabama location at Birmingham’s The Summit.

The lifestyle clothing brand is aiming to begin serving customers this fall, according to The Summit’s Facebook account.

The store will be located next to Chuy’s.

The Summit has seen a lot of activity in 2025.

Abercrombie & Fitch was announced earlier this year, along with Alo and Boll & Branch.

The last Abercrombie & Fitch location in Alabama closed in the Riverchase Galleria several years ago.

Earlier this month, Lululemon reopened in its new, larger location at 243 Summit Blvd. That came a month after Alo Yoga, the athletic-leisure brand made popular through social media, opened a studio.

And Willow 31 specializes in women’s clothing, shoes, and accessories, opened in May.
