Furniture - Ethan Allen was supposed to be sourcing furniture from India - I'm surprised to read that so much is from the US.
They have many free standing stores, some in moderately expensive areas.

Lazy - Boy seems to be getting sales traction with the Todd Oldham collection - much hipper designs which appeal to some Boomers, Gen X and some Gen Y.

Restoration Hardware sells lots of 'gimicky' stuff - old fashioned record players - and many of thier items seem to be overpriced. They also occupy the most expensive shopping mall real estate of any of the stocks mentioned, even more expenisive that Ethan Allen. This would be on my short list for shorts.
