American Eagle Acquires Tailgate Clothing Line

American Eagle Outfitters, looking to infuse its middle-American collegiate brand with fresh, smart ideas, has settled on Todd Snyder as one of its new idea guys. The name won’t be familiar to everyone, but in fashion circles, Mr. Snyder’s name is known for both a premium menswear line sold in places like Nordstrom and for his vintage-inspired collegiate Tailgate brand.
