    In administration, best news I've heard all week. I do feel for the few
    employees they had left though.

    I thought they were very popular in the States and the $-£ exchange rate
    should've worked in their favour? Although, from what I see on the ADV
    forums, the revived Belstaff brand is very popular over there now, what
    with the Long Way Down effect.

  4. Blimey. I remember when Lintek was one of the biggest wholesalers in the
    UK, and independently owned. Bod called Larry Riches. Sold up some time
    in the 1990s, I think.

    Sold to Peter Gleave, and renamed Lintek Gleave IIRC
