Is anyone else irritated by the new Forward website (http://www.forwardforward.com)?

It used to be standard but functional. Now they interrupt you with full-page flash screens and it takes an agonizing amount of time to load merchandise / switch from one designer to another, because it's doing some kind of flash-based operation instead of just sending you to a product page.

EDIT: it seems to have speeded up now, it was slow as shite a few minutes ago, but maybe they were just sorting something out. Still an annoying interface IMO.

The one thing they got right was more and bigger photos, but this is one of the worst website overhauls I can think of (comparable to SF's, which still seems to have been entirely useless even months later). Their brand selection has improved, but I'm curious to see whether the whole menswear half dwindles into a vestigial afterthought now the website is "Forward by some Eylse Walker," whoever the hell that is.

I appreciate the... effort? I suppose I would definitely wear one on a trip for the same reason I layer heavily in that they charge extra for baggage so if I can't carry it on my carry-on or my person, I don't bring it, but you know an army of tech-geeks are thinking it's the epitome of fashion.

And you should see the cargo khakis...

Goodness, there's some coin being flushed away by people with blind loyalty toward certain brands or aesthetics that just don't jive with their body type or general appearance.
