Got this email from the Keydge website today, as I'm sure many other forum members did. Anyway, it seems they're going out of business. Here's the key passage:
"The Company UNION SLACK AUTHORITY will cease its activities over the coming weeks, ending the creations and marketing of the J.Keydge Brand.
We would have liked to be able to tell you that the Brand is not necessarily going permanently out of existence. Although takeover talks are in the air, nothing is settled and, at best, there will be a cessation of activities for an indeterminate period of time."
Sad news for those of us who enjoy their slouchy Gallic take on Ivy.
For what it's worth they're offering 50% off all remaining stock, just enter this code: FACT2017
Quel dommage...
EDIT: That code can only be used from 12 December.

Ahh man, that is bad news.
Hope someone (JS, perhaps?) makes a success of the takeover...
Very sad news. I hope they find someone to take over.
That is a pity, particularly as all the size 42s were gone.
Never mind, there's still Hardy and Johnson.
Wow. That's a shock. I wonder how the stonking rise in their pricing in last year or so played in to this.
A bit overpriced,
their trousers were awful
and they kept trying new models when the only ones that really sold were the Ace and Ivy jackets.
Shame to see them go but not surprised.
Not on Facebook, does anyone have an email for H&J? Please and thank you.
