PROFILE |
 |
London Fog Industries has been battling the elements since 1954, when it made the first wash-and-wear raincoat. But outerwear hasn't sheltered the company from inclement financial conditions (such as mild winters and mounting debt); therefore, London Fog filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in 1999 (it emerged in 2001). The company designs and distributes outerwear, rainwear, and sportswear in the US under its own brands (London Fog, Towne, Pacific Trail, and Black Dot) and under licensed names (Dockers, Levi's). After reducing store operations in an effort to focus on its wholesale operations, London Fog now operates about 35 factory outlet stores. A host of investment firms owns the company.
