AAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Oh no where will I buy my ill fitting zip up hoodies now
>>12132352
Maybe Gildan's quality and fit will stop being dogshit, now.
i can't think of a single thing at american apparel worth buying that isn't a shitty version of some other basic that you can buy for better somewhere else for the same price

This. Almost everything in American apparel fits like shit.
>>12132386
It's like their model body is the long boy meme
>>12132386
Yes, and Gildan's "cut for a sentient cardboard box" cuts are better how?
>>12132396
>how?
Stop talking like this you limp-wristed nu-male
>>12132352
Honestly, this is a fucking bummer.
I buy a lot of band merch as it's my favorite way to support artists I like, and it's always a relief to see that it's printed on american apparel tees. The quality control is pretty spotty, but at least I can roughly estimate how it's going to fit and feel. Plus there's the whole 'no sweatshops, muh american jobs' thing.
I wonder if they'd be doing better if they had branded themselves as nothing more than a simple, honest, made-in-america basics company without the slimy, sex-obsessed spin. It kind of seems to me like that's just not really what people wanted from the company.
It probably made more sense in the 90s, but, as a wise man once said, if you keep following old models, your ass is gonna get hillary clinton'd

I thought AA made their stuff in places like Bangladesh.
>>12132441
>Getting this buttblasted over a way questions are phrased
Wew lad
>>12132502
why? because of this ad? it's a joke about how the model is from bangladesh, and it's EXACTLY what i'm talking about.
as far as i know, everything they sell says made in america on the tag
they're purchasing their factories and production processes and trademarks you dumbasses
next time read more than the headline
>>12133542
what else would they be purchasing
>>12132374
their tees were GOAT
>>12132374
their swim shorts after groupon coupon were clutch as fuck 6 years ago
Will my vlone, ASSC, and TLOP merch somehow manage to fit worse now?
>>12132526
Might I say, she has really nice titties for a Bengali girl
>>12132491
Their spin isn't what has killed them. It's because of everything guy says here. It's just market economics. If you're overpriced as hella and don't give anyone a reason to buy your products other than 'muh american jobs' you're gonna get fukt.
>>12133588
their stores
their actual business
the purchase is of select assets
>>12132352
name change to "Canadian Apparel"
>>12132491

>>12136222

The company started in Montreal later it got brought by a Montreal based company which is ironic
>>12132374
For women they got some nice legwear.
Also their Hammer Tees are fucking great.
>>12132491
Dov's scandals really ruined them, and the entire company structure was a lil fucked up. Sales dropped drastically from 2014 -> 2015, right after he got kicked out. Their marketing was a mess, too many people still didn't even know we were "sweatshop free" maybe they forgot, a lot didn't even know that Dov was gone in the first place.
Becoming so lenient with the hiring process was a change I really noticed also. Not to saying we had to go back to the days where your pic was submitted to head office, but...the atmosphere was undeniably better before.
anyway AA was by far the best retail job I've ever had. All of them are gonna be gone in Canada by next month.The day before our store started the liquidation sale I walked out w/ 7 bags after closing that night. It's gonna be weird not having them around

>yfw those East Coast workers are descendents of subhuman ""Europeans"" such as the Irish, southern Italians, Poles, Greeks, gypsies, Baltics, and other greasy Slavs
>>12132374

Their jeans. I mean really, they have a perfect tapered and high waisted cut done with crisp denim and a button fly.
>>12137392
Did they really take your pictures and send it to head office
>>12136016

I had 20% off in the early fall and I was going to buy up on hammer tees but decided to pass because I was low on cash
>then months later the online store shuts down and I can't order anymore
>then all the stores go on super clearance but I miss it all and nothing is available locally
>then I can't even order them from the US because most are out of stock after Gildan bought them
Seriously, where do I scoop some Hammer Tees in Canada?
>>12132526
