There's nothing on their web site so far to indicate that you can't use gift cards.

This makes me very sad! I LOVE EB because they sell everything they make in tall sizes as well. I'm hoping they can pull through this and still remain in business, although from things I've read it seems that if that happened, they'd be on a smaller, more niche scale like they used to be as an outdoor outfitter, which probably means no more huge selection of tall sized tops. So very sad. :(

I'm sad too. Their pants fit me better than any other's I've found, and at a price I can stomach!

That stinks! My husband is 6'9 and this is one of the only places to buy clothes that fit him at a decent price.

My husband's also 6'9" and buys all his clothes from Eddie Bauer! I guess he's going to need to stock up now, although I do hope they can pull through somehow.

I haven't bought from them for a long time, but I like their stuff. I was so sad when they closed their home store. I loved their bedding.

That's us too! DH is 6'4" and most of his wardrobe is EB. I guess Iknow what he's getting for Father's Day!
