Looks like the sportswear retailer, made famous due to its CEO’s appearance on Undercover Boss, is headed for the dustbin of retail.  :\'(

I haven't went there, but it's still pretty sad to hear that news. It was a staple sporting store in my area.

Yeah it’s like the Pier One near where I live. It was there for like 15 years and I shopped there once, a couple of months ago (but did not buy anything). Sad to see it go.

TJMaxx and Marshall’s has ADIDAS, NIKE gear, and Under Armour stuff now. There’s no need for overpriced sportswear from Modell’s.

If it was overpriced then how did they go bankrupt? ???

The sports equipment and sportswear was not expensive to everyone.

Dick’s is the better store out of Modell’s and Dick’s. Dick’s is like Sports Authority meets Modell’s. In the 2010s, people began frequenting Dick’s and leaving Modell’s in the dust.
