How is one month of closures bankrupting these big companies...Bootstraps and all that good shit

Maybe time for a new religion.

Name change maybe ?.. sounds like jeans I'd wear if I was in a Christian rock band

Maybe $500 jeans aren’t cool anymore? TrueReligion

God Bless them all! May life be kind to them.

Their jeans were a fad, probably should have changed it up by now. You can find many of these jeans at 2nd hand stores. They just need to shut down.

$80-$200 for a pair of men's jeans and TrueReligion got the nerve to be filling Chapter 11 backruprcy. WTF?

bizzleosikoya Skeptas Jeans?

Denim masks?

Stop having so many brick and mortar stores, clothing lines should almost all be online/warehouse; business. Less overhead. No one visits malls like that anymore

Never owned a pair.

I wouldn’t blame Corona Virus for this

I guess they can't find enough stupid people willing to spend $250 on jeans that look like $25 jeans.

Amazingly that dirtball from Tigerking didn’t keep them in business.

Prime example of a company that should not be “bailed” out... they were obviously already failing before the crisis.

Overpriced piece of junk anyway.
