Eddie Bauer pursues Chapter 11, eyes sale of about 200 North American stores
Eddie Bauer LLC filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, seeking to sell roughly 200 Eddie Bauer stores in the United States and Canada amid declining sales, inflation, and supply-chain pressures. Most locations will stay open during the process, while online sales and wholesale operations shift to Outdoor 5 LLC; stores outside North America remain with other licensees. This marks the brand’s third bankruptcy in more than a century, with Catalyst Brands as the owner.
