American Eagle's feeling good about its new Sydney Sweeney commercial -- despite all the controversy ... they might have good reason to blow off critics claiming the ad focuses on Nazi-like eugenics, pushing blonde hair and blue eyes as aspirational.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... the ad campaign is creating tremendous buzz and their independent polling shows the vast majority of folks -- around 70% -- find the commercial appealing.

The spot centers around Sydney buttoning up some AE jeans and touting her biological makeup, where she breathily says, "Genes are passed down from parents to offspring, often determining traits like hair color, personality and even eye color ... my jeans are blue."

Paul Marciano -- the fashion brand's co-founder -- tells TMZ he’s always been one to shake things up, like when he dropped that bold red logo in '85 while everyone else was stuck in B&W. And it's the same vibe now ... A.I.'s just the new toy in town, so it caught his eye and he ran with it!
