P.S. from Aéropostale - Fashion Company Profile

P.S. from Aéropostale was the children's store concept launched by the teen retailer Aéropostale, selling casual clothing for younger kids in its own mall stores. All of the P.S. stores were later closed, and the concept no longer trades. This page is kept as a short historical profile; the parent Aéropostale brand continues under Catalyst Brands and has its own profile in this section.

Company Profile

Because the concept is closed, there is no P.S. from Aéropostale store or website to link to; the button above leads to the parent brand's site. Shoppers looking for the children's clothing the chain once sold should start from the parent brand or the children's clothing guides elsewhere on Apparel Search.

The launch record is plain: the first (?:'|')P.S. from Aeropostale(?:'|') store opened in the Palisades Mall in West Nyack, New York. The company planned to open additional stores, as well as an e-commerce site at ps4u.com. That is the whole of the launch record - one first store, one named mall, a plan for more stores, and a planned web address - and a first-store fact is exactly the kind of detail a company directory exists to keep.

The Closing Note

A single sentence gives the end of the story: later all the P.S from Aeropostale had been closed. No date is given. Under this directory's standing rule, a closed brand is removed from shopping listings but its profile is kept as history, noted as history - which is what this page is. The P.S. name survives in the record as a documented attempt by a teen retailer to extend downward into children's clothing, a strategy its competitors of the era also tried; the American Eagle timeline in this same letter, for example, records that chain's 77kids children's launch in 2008.

Why keep a one-paragraph profile at all? Because researchers, former employees, landlords, journalists and shoppers with a memory of the store search for exactly this: did it exist, where did it start, and what happened to it. The page answers all three from the record - it existed as Aéropostale's children's concept, it started at the Palisades Mall in West Nyack, New York, and all of its stores were later closed. Anything beyond that would be invention.
