Kenneth Cole Productions Inc. is closing its flagship store in Rockefeller Center and eight other stores this year, the company disclosed in a regulatory filing. The apparel retailer also closed eight in 2010.
The brand, which started 29 years ago, has been struggling in recent years as consumers shunned its trendy wares. Late last year, there were even rumors that namesake designer Kenneth Cole's younger brother, Neil, who runs Iconix Brand Group Inc., was eying Kenneth Cole as an acquisition target. A deal failed to reach fruition.
