True Religion had emerged from Chapter 11 bankruptcy in October 2017 following negotiations with its key stakeholders, under a plan of reorganisation.
While its stores remain closed indefinitely, reports suggest the company’s e-commerce site is still in operation and it has obtained financing from lenders. True Religion did not return a request for comment.
True Religion has furloughed all non-essential employees. It is understood to have just over 1,000 employees, 92% of which are now furloughed. It has between US$100m and $500m in liabilities.
The company, which was founded in 2002 in Los Angeles, California, was bought by TowerBrook Capital Partners in 2013 for US$824m.
