Grateful Dead The Ridge Shirt

Product Description

Grateful Dead The Ridge Shirt Shares in Dr Martens plummeted to a new low as the UK bootmaker warned on profits and poor performance in the US, and announced the departure of its chief executive. The brand, known for its yellow-stitched thick-soled boots, warned sales would fall by a single-digit percentage in the year to the end of March 2025, compared with a year earlier. Profit before tax could be just a third of last year’s £159m in a worst-case scenario. It was the latest in a string of profit warnings at the brand, which issued four last year, and prompted the shares to plunge by a third on Tuesday to a record low of 62p. Superdry co-founder Julian Dunkerton Superdry restructures to cut rents as co-founder leads fundraising. The company expects US wholesale revenues (for shoes sold via other retailers in their stores) to fall in double digits, explaining that its autumn/winter order book, which makes up most of the second half of its US sales, is significantly down year on year. This will result in a £20m hit to pre-tax profits, with a further £35m hit from cost pressures, including wage bills.

Fully on the Grateful Dead The Ridge Shirt dress barely covers my chest – I can’t lean, bend or jump without flashing my reflection, and any large steps cause the super-high thigh slit to rise dangerously close to my ass. Standing still, though, I look good: sexy, trendy, youthful. But I quickly discover that the dress is too tight to pull over my head. How did I get in here? I shimmy and curse until I’m able to wrench the dress off me, where it springs back, tauntingly, to its original shape. Laid flat on the floor, the form is like a cartoon body: a perfect hourglass, smooth and dramatically curving. My new Shein clothes lie in a crumpled pile on my living room floor for a week. I can’t figure out what to do with them. Neither garment is particularly wearable, but the hassle of returning the pieces (or donating them, or selling them to a thrift store) seems absurd when they cumulatively cost me less than $15 to begin with. The idea of folding them up and placing them in my dresser alongside my other clothing feels defeating. I think briefly about trying to sew them into something new, but again – the hassle. Mostly I don’t think about them at all. The garments cost so little that I don’t feel pressure to make them fit my wardrobe, or my life. I’ve already forgotten why I wanted these particular clothes in the first place.
