Brooks Brothers bankrupt

I hear you and almost agree with you… however, the way this usually plays out is: this time next year you will be able to buy a “Brooks Brothers” suit made (in Vietnam or Honduras) of cheaper, lighter-weight fabric and with shoddier work; it will cost 75%-90% as much as its equivalent did this year, but won’t sell. Very shortly thereafter there will be an extensive Brooks Brothers section at Ross, while the successor company tries to squeeze the last juice out of the brand name; sometime after that the company will file for bankruptcy again, this time under Chapter 13.

I hope I’m wrong, but experience says…
