To attempt a comeback.

In a bid to stay afloat, troubled clothing retailer Aéropostale  ARO 0.00%  may file for bankruptcy as early as this month.

Shares fell nearly 28% before trading was halted pending news.

The once popular retailer is reportedly preparing to file Chapter 11 bankruptcy—a move which would allow the company to lessen its debut burden and attempt a comeback, Bloomberg first reported Thursday, citing people familiar with the matter.

...

If Aéropostale decides to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, it would join a growing list of retailers including American Apparel, Quicksilver, and The Sports Authority which have also followed similar routes in the past year, as the industry competes with a burgeoning e-commerce market.

Maybe it's because they can't keep up with the times. Their clothes aren't that trendy unlike let's say H&M or Zara. I could be wrong though but that is the case here in our country (The Philippines).

Good, they remind me of my embarrassing middle school years. :diane:

So aside from the fact that we live in the same state and are both not too proud of our past musical taste, we both also shamefully wore Aero in middle school xD are you me from another dimension???

It's a shame but their style is not popular anymore. Nobody wears the shirts that have a store's name plastered all over the front. It's just in style anymore like it was in the 2000s.

Sometimes it feels like I've got a war in my mind, I wanna get off but I keep riding the ride

Quiksilver filed for bankruptcy too?!? But I see that everywhere! 

 

I feel pretty bad for Aeropostale. It goes to show that you can't do the same thing over and over again. Especially when there are more desirable competitors that do it better. I feel too old for anything from there, Hollister, or A&F, but I always remember Aero being the less cool version of all of those.

I mean, they need to better their product designs, even if they do this filing, I am not sure people will buy their products if the designs are still undesirable. Not just blaming the e-commerce.

Costumer can get better clothes from American Eagle, Uniqlo, and such for example.
