The Flat Head - NEWS

[Anesthetist]

Such sad news for a brand that I really enjoyed when I could fit into their shirts. I really wish I would have bought more of their Googies line when they were out. They made some really fun pieces.

i wonder if anyone knows whats the deal with the flat head store in japan? curious to know about the one in harajuku..

i know they've filed for bankruptcy and stuff, but i didn't follow on the news regarding the hearing in court etc. will their stores be opened still and have a set date to shut? i suppose most retailers would still hold onto their stock?

Just have to wait and see…  nobody has the information yet.. maybe a re shuffle or something.. 
Brought some last batch of their stuff..

The harajuku store was very shut when Chesson and I walked past it last week

IH should buy TFH and drive the business on.
It would be a pity if TFH disappears 

[Kasi]

Don’t think Haraki would do that, Iron Heart on a different platform..

Its only speculation. But each company makes its very own business. Only that TFH would have way better sales channels. if that would work?!

[Giles]

We used to represent TFH outside of Japan and America.  At some point, I had to make a choice about which company we could work with best/which was the easier company to work with…..I did.....

[Kasi]

Not only that but Giles did bring flat head to Rivet and Hide… Danny took them on.

What more could you ask for, I got most of my TFH from there.

thanks alex! this was all i needed to hear.. and mostly the info i was looking for.

[louisbosco]

actually, i was wondering where else might stock them in jp? over the years i've known raw denim, somehow i haven't manage to get at least 1 pair of jeans. bit late but hoping to get 1 now..

[beautiful_FrEaK]

The more people talk about TFH shutting down, the more I think I should also add another pair to my collection

[mclaincausey]

I never bought a pair of their jeans, but I really love their denim's appearance and have a taste for it in my wabash work shirt from them. It's very distinctive and I would love for it to live on in some form. Perhaps they could license it elsewhere.

I visited the Osaka flat head store two weeks ago, they seemed to have a fair amount of stock across sub labels.

hmm. maybe i'll pop into this one to have a look..

3 weeks ago I saw TFH Jeans in Ueno, cant tell you what kind of TFH´s but I saw em.

TFH is/was still a brand I never was interested in. So nevermind.

[louisbosco]

cheers. i was wondering if anyone in ueno stocked them but i couldn't recall from memory..

@Danny:

I received an email this morning from The Flat Head and most of its core production will continue. Basically, ambitious full new collections will cease but core ranges (jeans, tees, flannels, leather) which they do so well will continue.
It will be interesting to see in which direction the new brand goes.

@Danny RnH I saw that TFH filed for 'Civil Rehab' at the end of the summer. I was just curious for a brand update…

[Giles]

Civil Rehab means basically that they need to find a buyer who will take on the debt.  That was about $10million, so I think anything Phoenix-like is unlikely….
