American Eagle Outfitters is recalibrating its marketing investments toward digital media, performance marketing, and influencer programs to boost conversion rates and sustain long-term growth. The company recently launched a dedicated TikTok shop and the AE creator community, while the AE brand saw a significant acceleration in digital channel performance after a flat start to the first quarter of fiscal 2026. Aerie maintained growth across all digital and physical channels. Management expects the second half of the year to focus more heavily on these digital initiatives, which are intended to drive traffic with a higher propensity to convert. The strategy is supported by campaigns like the 100% Aerie Real campaign featuring Pamela Anderson and collaborations with Bubble Skincare and Prime Video's Off Campus.
