I am on a sports jacket buying binge from Men's Wearhouse.

I have two new Executive Fit sports jackets coming and want to buy more. These are usually $144.00. I keep buying them at $89.00. I am a bit of a "clothes horse" for this "river town" of 1800 souls, but I look good and get compliments from the decent people.

It beats running around in a t-shirt and jeans.

The bankruptcy is a "Chapter 11" move by Men's Wearnouse/Joseph A Bank to reorganize. They're closing the downtown Portland, OR location on August 21st, 2020 and leaving the Hillsboro, OR open.

They'll be just fine.

Why would they close the Portland store?

Reorganization. They need to close stores that aren't turning a decent profit margin. The Hillsboro stoor seems to be doing just fine.

Probably figured they should close before it got burnt down.
