It's evident that J Crew's financial position isn't going to allow the company to pay/service the debt. So, presumably this is a preemptive strike to avoid bankruptcy.Mygoddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09240250626088757693noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-54108053364158345442017-01-03T23:59:37.075-05:002017-01-03T23:59:37.075-05:00silver_lining - wow, that pic of Sprint 2017 in th...silver_lining - wow, that pic of Sprint 2017 in the Reuters link!!!

I also read recently that they may spin off or sell Madewell (one article on the subject <a href="http://www.reuters.com/article/us-j-crew-group-restructuring-idUSKBN13B2RK" rel="nofollow">here</a>). Whatever they do, I think 2017 will probably be a year of big change for JC. That being said, if I wasn't familiar with the brand and saw the picture of Spring '17 from the linked Reuters article, I probably wouldn't be enticed to look any further. : /silver_lininghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11145331294538875917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-82432922748394204512017-01-03T13:53:57.167-05:002017-01-03T13:53:57.167-05:00hey silver_lining - Got it, thanks.

The only thing I've read that you probably have heard of as well, is that their bonds are coming due and as part of a possible debt restructuring, they MIGHT separate some of the brick and mortar assets from the intellectual property.

I was talking to some of the SA's and manager for a while and they had heard about the company filing for some kind of pre-bankruptcy status (can any business-savvy JCA shed some light on this?). They had a lot of opinions on why their store was having a hard time, some similar to what we've been saying here, but it's gone unaddressed by corporate. silver_lininghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11145331294538875917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-796837590876628282017-01-03T09:28:05.396-05:002017-01-03T09:28:05.396-05:00+1 on trying not to shop...I spent last week listi...+1 on trying not to shop...I spent last week listing on eBay and feeling overwhelmed with my clothing.

I have a number of items with tags on that I keep forgetting about. Wasted money that I should learn from. Why don't I learn? <br />Ruffles, you said it exactly - need to take a break from the crazy cycle of buying, returning, stalking. I def bought way over budget the last few months and need to put the brakes on. I have a gift card left over that I'm trying to convince myself to hold onto towards spring items or such down the road. I still have two popbacks arriving this week that need to be the last of shopping for a while if I keep them. janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16257918991247030517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-19258740406259711852017-01-02T19:06:03.332-05:002017-01-02T19:06:03.332-05:00Flower Power - agree with @cobalt above regarding ...Flower Power - agree with @cobalt above regarding the fit.
