After seeing some of the most recent sale deals coming out of HUF is was no real surprise to learn today that Keith Hufnagel is closing the HUF San Francisco store next week according to N-SB.org.
The store brought a lot of previously unavailable brands to San Francisco and became the platform of many collabo’s and eventually a full clothing and footwear brand. The Huf skateshop was already closed but now the store will completely disappear from the streets of San Francisco. The Huf brand and the Huf store in LA will continue business.
Guess this is what can happen when a successful retailer attempts to launch their own brand in direct competition with some of their strongest suppliers.
