I loved their stuff. And it’s true, it lasted forever - the style, the cuts and the fabric. I wonder if it’s still true though that people wouldn‘t pay £100 for running shorts - nowadays they pay twice as much for Satisfy… I agree with Scott about that buyer though, what‘s the deal with them?
Thanks for this! It’s on my mind as so many new players enter the market - and totally missed the role Claire played in Iffley Road, too few brands with women at the helm for sure.
Kinda Yada Yada'd over the part of the buyer, which seems like the meat of the story (beyond the stroke).
How much was paid? Did the money come through? Why pay ___ just to do literally nothing with what you purchased?

That was story with telling, thanks. Knew of the brand, hadn't realised it had gone, pity
