I was quite sad to hear that DB Clay will be shutting down. They have some of the damned nicest, prettiest, most interesting wallets I’ve ever come across. They are a design icon in Portland and it’s unfortunate to see them going away. I’ve been talking with some friends about a possible save DB Clay movement. Whatever happens I wish them the best of luck in their future endeavors. I’ll keep rocking Dark Bark as my guilty pleasure, no matter how ugly my wife thinks it is.

Yeah it sucks.  They’ll be back though.

I agree with Turoczy. The brand seems prime to be bought up by Nike or Adidas.
