Abercrombie & Fitch is no longer selling a T-shirt mocking Taylor Swift's relationships after it led to a backlash from the singer's fans.
The retailer, which recently came under fire for not selling plus-size clothing, swiftly found itself in another controversy after it started selling a t-shirt that read "# more boyfriends than t.s.," a reference to Taylor Swift. (SEE THE SHIRT HERE)
After spotting the shirt, the singer's fans lashed out at the retailer for what they thought was an insulting garment.

Fans created a petition on Change.org asking Abercrombie to remove the shirt and one self-described "huge Swiftie," posted a YouTube video in which she urged fans to call Abercrombie public relations to complain.
Calls to the retailer's corporate PR now get the following greeting: "Thank you for calling Abercrombie & Fitch public relations. If you are calling regarding the Taylor Swift T-shirt, please note that this is no longer available."
Perhaps they got a lot of calls about that.

A spokesman for Abercrombie & Fitch told Buzzfeed that the shirt, which came out in February, is no longer available.
