Much as Weber's pictures for Calvin Klein underwear made that designer's white briefs the signifier par excellence of ideal gay male physicality in the early 1990s, Weber's work for Abercrombie has launched their merchandise into gay consciousness; A&F regalia surfaces in gay street culture, gay pornography, and many places in between.

Weber spends at least twice as much time relating the demise of one of his golden retrievers as he does mentioning that an associate died in one of the hijacked planes on 9-11; clips of Haitians fleeing cramped boats to reach American shores segue without irony to interviews with suntanned professional surfers.
