Sorry to see them go out of business, but their pricing looks to be a factor here. Even at 50% off, I'm finding items to be overpriced.

I thought Apple halting production on leather stuff would make these guys sell more?

Don't think that is many people's style. To me it looks tacky and the stitching doesn't look clean for the price, even at 50% off on some items. They had a narrow and very specific target.

You missed an opportunity to just put a red line across the final two L's, making it "Pad & Quitt".

Plot twist: “We had a fenomenal sale event and raised enough cash so we don’t have to close our business anymore“. We will be raising our prices 200% in the future.
