Bad sizing (the t-shirt I got is an unwearably skinny fit. And their piss poor online customer service.

Remember their products have never been cheap; I bought my first pair of combats from there 10 yrs ago for £160; people aren't willing to pay these kind of prices in the current market. Over the last couple of years the Covent Garden store has been quiet and the MHI store which is clearly of genre leading design, never really took off to my mind. Whilst the rumors are that JD are interested in MHI, bear in mind they have yet to re-launch Foot Patrol and are unlikely to do so in these hard times. Don't write Maharishi off just yet however, they have filed before and survived. They have a big following in the Far East and Blenchman is well connected, so I'd suggest he may get backing from that part of the world and retain independence from a brand such as JD which may lower credibility. Whatever happens the brand does need to re-invent itself and I don't think it has the cult following it did back in the 90s; the people who bought the brand back then are well into their 30s and I don't see the younger generation finding the brand or streetware in general as appealing. Not all doom and gloom though, the market needs a shake up and it's a good opportunity for new talent to come through.<BR/><BR/>My dj devistate back in 88<BR/><BR/>Ah yeah!gingewonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16379218736780002565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3022417225097477758.post-87059904972811185962009-03-12T13:07:00.000+00:002009-03-12T13:07:00.000+00:00Just checked Edward's link on to Companies House. ...Just checked Edward's link on to Companies House. A new company called Maharishi (London) was formed maybe to smooth the close down or hopefully something new.<BR/><BR/>Has anyone seen either of the shops open?

Maybe it's the price of Maharishi clothes that doesn't work in a recession, while the style still works.
