What is steve and barry?

Steve and Barry's was a retail clothing chain founded by Barry Prevor and Steve Shore in 1985. The company was known for offering low-cost clothing and accessories, with most items priced at $20 or less. They were particularly popular among college students and budget-conscious consumers.

Steve and Barry's experienced rapid growth in the early 2000s and at its peak, had over 270 stores in the United States. The company was known for its celebrity collaborations, including lines with Sarah Jessica Parker, Amanda Bynes, and Stephon Marbury.

Unfortunately, Steve and Barry's filed for bankruptcy in 2008 and eventually closed all of its stores. The bankruptcy was largely attributed to the company's rapid expansion and inability to manage its debts. Despite its closure, Steve and Barry's left a lasting impact on the retail industry with its focus on affordable and accessible fashion.
