Do people still buy stuff from Eddie Bauer?

Looking at a sweet Bronco he signed

I listen to Dan Patrick and they advertise like crazy on there. I had no idea they were even in business.

I seem to remember they were a legit outdoorsy type store at one point. Somewhere along the line, they morphed into J Crew/Banana Republic.

My mom had one like that growing up, and wish I still had it to fix up and drive around. They came with the matching set of luggage that I remember I used for years until I lost it in a move after college.

Yeh, but if go back even further, Banana Republic morphed into what they are now from something similar to the old Eddie Bauer. BR was originally a catalog/mail order only company with some pretty cool outdoorsy kind of clothes.

I wish they still made their Adventurer cologne. It is one of the few that I can wear that works with my body chemistry.

There's more money in suburban sportswear than in technical gear for hardcore outdoorsmen. North Face has nearly completed that transition.

This, but it seems more like American Eagle type quality now.
