if they really are being cut, that's super, super shitty management. cromer has talked about the cromer 2 coming out next year, and austyn has been talking about how they have been designing the gillete 2 for late next year.
i've worked at companies that closed down. it's never unexpected. you're never planning a full calendar year ahead while also knowing you're closing down in 2 weeks, especially when it's apparel/footwear.
