I read about this in one of the Museum Association pubs we get at work a few months ago...I even copied the article in order to type it up here for you all, but sadly I've misplaced it in my move. Anyway, the gist of it is that American Eagle Outfitters are starting a new line of clothing inspired by the lives and work of Martin and Osa Johnson. The article revealed that this is AEO's attempt to follow Gap's clever scheme:
Gap:AEO :: Banana Republic:Martin&Osa
They are collaborating in interesting ways with the Martin and Osa Johnson Museum, which was the main focus of the article (unsurprisingly). It sounds intriguing. I believe they are planning to open several flagship stores around the country this fall.

I'll keep a sharp eye out for the article so I can reproduce it here.
