RYU Apparel Inc. announced that it will shift focus to its digital ecommerce business and close two store locations. The Company has decided to close their Williamsburg and Toronto store locations on February 20, 2022, and March 27, 2022, respectively. The Vancouver location, which also serves as Company headquarters and, will remain open driving experiential retail, community, and new product activations.

With the closure of these two stores, RYU also intends to concentrate its brick-and-mortar presence on co-located shop-in-shops and store partnerships, predominately in the USA.
