Well that’s something.
Head here for the announcement. More info can be found here at Tech Crunch. And Andy Dunn, who’s staying on after the sale with Walmart (albeit in a new, bigger e-commerce role), wrote about the sale over at medium.
2017 has seen multiple heads roll at J. Crew. Traditional big box stores like Macy’s continue to struggle to adapt to this new age of retail. Allen Edmonds was sold to the owners of Famous Footwear back in December. Hell, Amazon just bought Whole Foods.
And now Bonobos, a company that sells $88 GYM SHORTS (think about that for a second) just got gobbled up by Walmart.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
End of summer clearances + new arrival sale reluctance = stuck between seasons.
Sunday & Monday only. Shawl collar sweaters. Quilted jackets. Lots of new fall arrivals. BRF…
Huckberry has refreshed their sale section.
But will any of it go on significant sale anytime soon? Attempted analysis of sale…
"Who are you wearing??" ... "The Sale section. All of them."
