I been stopped f’ing w/ Eastbay. Lol. I forgot they were still around.

 

[Dghustla]

man loved Eastbay.

Was just wonder what ever happened to them
The other day.

It’s crazy they can’t survive
And thrive when literally they had the model everyone is using online now lol.

****. How do they shut down?

I mean, can't they sell the company and brand?

Of course the re-brand would be with social media, ....

They did. They sold to Footlocker and Footlocker is utilizing it to push traffic to their own site. I’m sure there will be a redirect on the Eastbay website when Eastbay “closes.”

They had a 70% off sale just before Xmas. I got a pair of Adidas Adios 7 for $30–normally $130. Nice parting gift.

There is a free-standing Foot Locker on Broward Boulevard.
