Coldwater Creek


Return to Index

Coldwater Creek's physical store descriptions are discontinued because the brand ceased retail operations, first filing for bankruptcy and closing stores in 2014, then again shutting down all stores and e-commerce in 2020 due to COVID-19 challenges, though its brand lives on online after being acquired for digital revival. Stores listed on sites like Yelp are marked as permanently closed as of early 2020, with final sales happening before the shutdown.

History of Closures & Revival:

2014 Bankruptcy: Coldwater Creek filed for Chapter 11, closing all stores and liquidating inventory, notes Chain Store Age and Savannah Morning News.

2018-2020 Retail Re-launch: The brand was bought for its intellectual property and briefly reopened physical stores, according to Idaho Business Review.

2020 Shutdown: The pandemic forced another closure of stores and the website, with a "goodbye" message suggesting a possible return, report Retail Dive and Chain Store Age.

Online Presence: Coldwater Creek has since acquired the brand for online revival after Soft Surroundings' bankruptcy, keeping the brand alive digitally.
