After 12 years on Manayunk's Main Street, Tag Denim is calling it quits. "It is with a very heavy heart that we must announce the bittersweet ending for Tag Denim in Manayunk,' the store posted shared via an open letter on Facebook last night. The denim outpost will shutter its doors at 4358 Main Street for good on December 31, but the shop's Facebook announcement hints at the possibility of a new retail location in the future: "2014 will have many new and exciting changes, and while we cannot call Manayunk our home anymore, you haven't seen the last of us!"

Heralded by many for superior customer service, Tag Denim carried men's and women's apparel and jeans from the likes of Citizens of Humanity, 7 for all Mankind, Hudson, J Brand, Hudson, Paige, and DL1961, Ben Sherman, and Ella Moss.
