Crystal ball is tough. Who knows what's gonna be hot 9 months down the road? Glad I'm not in retailing now. A wholesaler who could get a 2 month time frame in could do well. Some pop up but they get too big to react and die. I hope big and tall haven't become that trendy.

I remember double knits. Everything was double knit. Curlee had a ton of sharkskin on hand. They sold the shit out of suits to Wyoming and Montana. Double knit snagged and was cold.

Out of 300 sports coats we had 3 Nehru jackets. There's where you can miss a sale and make money. I'm going on and on so goodnight Gracie.
