Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization and Business	Organization and Business American Apparel, Inc. including its subsidiaries (collectively the "Company") is a manufacturer, distributor, and retailer of branded fashion basic apparel products and designs. The Company manufactures and sells clothing and accessories for women, men, children and babies. The Company sells its products through the wholesale distribution channel supplying t-shirts and other casual wear to distributors and screen printers, as well as directly to customers through its retail stores located in the U.S. and internationally. In addition, the Company operates an online retail e-commerce website. At September 30, 2015 , the Company operated a total of 227 retail stores in 19 countries including the U.S. and Canada. Recent Developments - As of September 30, 2015, the Company had $13,372 in cash, $56,968 outstanding on the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility (as defined below) and $3,032 of availability for additional borrowings as of such date. As of September 30, 2015, the Company had $211,817 aggregate principal amount of senior secured notes (the "Notes") outstanding. On April 14, 2015, the Company paid $13,803 in interest on the Notes. The Company did not make the scheduled interest payment on the Notes due on October 15, 2015, which was approximately $13,900 . On October 5, 2015, American Apparel, Inc. and certain of its domestic subsidiaries (the "Debtors") filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware (the "Bankruptcy Court") seeking relief under Chapter 11 of the United States Code (the "Bankruptcy Code"). The cases are being administered under the caption "In re American Apparel, Inc., et al.," Case Nos. 15-12055 (BLS) (the "Chapter 11 Cases"). The Debtors continue to operate their businesses and manage their properties as debtors-in-possession under the jurisdiction of the Bankruptcy Court and in accordance with the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and orders of the Bankruptcy Court. The Company's foreign subsidiaries were not part the Chapter 11 cases. The Company's common stock has been delisted from the NYSE MKT LLC. The Chapter 11 Cases were filed in response to the Company's continuing losses and negative cash flows from operations and debt. The Company plans to continue implementing its strategic plan, which is focused on improving product selection, cost-cutting measures, improving supply chain efficiencies, SKU rationalization, and maximizing retail, e-commerce and wholesale opportunities. On October 4, 2015, the Company entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement with the syndicate of lenders of the revolving credit facility, which are also the majority holders of the Notes ("the Supporting Parties"). Under the terms of the Restructuring Support Agreement, the holders of the Notes will be entitled to receive on a pro rata basis, 100% of the equity interest in the reorganized Company after the conclusion of the Chapter 11 Cases, subject to certain exceptions and additional equity interests being issued or reserved under the Equity Commitment Agreement (described below). The Company also entered into an Equity Commitment Agreement on October 4, 2015 (the "Equity Commitment Agreement"), which provides for the Supporting Parties to acquire equity interests in the Company of at least $10,000 and up to $40,000 after conclusion of the Chapter 11 Cases. On October 6, 2015, the Company obtained approval from the Bankruptcy Court of the Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement ("DIP Credit Agreement") between the Company and the Supporting Parties. The DIP Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured, super-priority delayed draw term loan and consists of approximately $90,000 for the purposes of (i) refinancing in full the borrowings outstanding under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility (as defined in Note 6) and (ii) providing additional funding of $30,000 , which carries a commitment fee of 2% . On the effective date of the Plan (as defined below), the DIP Credit Agreement will convert to an Exit Term Loan Facility (the "Exit Term Loan Facility") providing for an additional $30,000 in financing, which carries a commitment fee of 2% . The facility is secured by a first priority senior lien on substantially all assets of the Company. Wilmington Trust, National Association ("Wilmington Trust") will continue to act as administrative agent for both the DIP Credit Agreement and the Exit Term Loan Facility. See Note 6. On October 15, 2015, the Debtors filed with the Bankruptcy Court a proposed disclosure statement (the "Disclosure Statement"), including a Joint Plan of Reorganization by the Debtors and the Debtors in Possession (as amended and supplemented from time to time, including the Plan Amendments described below, the "Plan"). On the Effective Date (defined below) of the Plan, the Company's current outstanding common stock, any preferred stock purchase rights and any options, warrants or any other equity interests will be extinguished with no consideration. In addition, holders of general unsecured claims against the Debtors will receive a distribution equal to their pro rata share of (i) units in a litigation trust established for the benefit of the general unsecured creditors and (ii) for each voting class that accepts the Plan, cash distribution provided under the Plan which shall be paid in semi-annual installments for one year from the Effective Date of the Plan. On January 11, 2016, the Company obtained approval of all voting classes to accept the Plan. In addition, on January 11, 2016, the Debtors, the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors (the "Creditors' Committee") and the Supporting Parties reached an agreement on key terms of an amended plan of reorganization (the "Plan Amendments"). The Plan Amendments provide for (i) an increase to the funding of the litigation trust, (ii) an increase to the cash distribution provided under the Plan, which is now available to all unsecured creditors, regardless of whether any voting class accepts or rejects the Plan, and (iii) a waiver from the Supporting Parties of their rights to receive the cash distribution for their general unsecured claims, further increasing the recoveries to the general unsecured creditors. Finally, the Plan Amendments provide for a commitment of $40,000 in additional exit capital through an asset-based credit facility from either a third party lender or the Supporting Parties. This additional commitment will be in addition to the $40,000 of new capital previously contemplated by the Equity Commitment Agreement and the Exit Term Loan Facility discussed above. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments to reflect the possible future effects on the recoverability of assets or the amounts of liabilities that may result from the Plan or should the Company be unable to continue as a going concern. The Company's ability to continue as a going concern is contingent upon the consummation of its Plan and its ability to comply with the financial and other covenants contained in the Restructuring Support Agreement, the DIP Credit Agreement and the Equity Commitment Agreement. On January 27, 2016 (the "Confirmation Date"), the Bankruptcy Court entered an order (the "Confirmation Order") confirming the Plan. The Company plans to emerge from the Chapter 11 Cases after satisfying the remaining conditions to effectiveness contemplated under the Plan (defined in the Plan as the "Effective Date"). See Part II, Item 5 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies	Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Apparel, Inc. and its 100% owned subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The financial data of the Company included herein is unaudited. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain certain information that was included in the annual financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 . Readers are urged to review the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 as well as other publicly filed documents for more complete descriptions and discussions. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, the results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The operating results and cash flows of the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The most significant estimates include: revenue recognition, inventory valuation and obsolescence; valuation and recoverability of long-lived assets, including the values assigned to goodwill, intangible assets, and property and equipment; fair value calculations, including derivative liabilities; contingencies, including accruals for the outcome of current litigation and assessments and self-insurance; and income taxes, including uncertain income tax positions and recoverability of deferred income taxes and any limitations as to net operating losses. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash (the amounts of which may, at times, exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits on insurable amounts) and trade accounts receivable (including credit card receivables) relating substantially to the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment. Cash is managed within established guidelines, and the Company mitigates its risk by investing through major financial institutions. The Company had $7,769 and $6,361 held in foreign banks at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited by performing on-going credit evaluations of its customers and adjusting credit limits based upon payment history and the customer's current credit worthiness. The Company also maintains an insurance policy for certain customers based on a customer's credit rating and established limits. Collections and payments from customers are continuously monitored. Three customers in the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment combined accounted for 36.3% of its total trade accounts receivable as of September 30, 2015 . One customer in the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment combined accounted for 16.6% of its total trade accounts receivable as of December 31, 2014 . The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which is based upon historical experience and specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While bad debt expenses have historically been within expectations and allowances established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that it has in the past. Fair Value Measurements The financial instruments recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets include cash, trade accounts receivable (including credit card receivables), accounts payable, revolving credit facilities, senior secured notes, term loans and warrants. Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying values of cash, trade accounts receivables, and accounts payable approximate their fair market values. In addition, the carrying amount of the revolving credit facility from Capital One approximates its fair value because of the variable market interest rate charged to the Company. The Company employs a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date using the exit price. Accordingly, when market observable data is not readily available, the Company's own assumptions are used to reflect those that market participants would be presumed to use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value are categorized based on the level of judgment associated with inputs used to measure their fair value and the level of market price observability, as follows: Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than unadjusted quoted prices in active markets, which are based on the following: • Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; • Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets; or • Either directly or indirectly observable inputs as of the reporting date. Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. The valuation policies and procedures underlying are determined by the Company's accounting and finance team and are approved by the Chief Financial Officer. In certain cases, inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Thus, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (Level 1 or Level 2) and unobservable (Level 3). The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including during periods of market disruption. In periods of market disruption, the ability to observe prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition could cause an instrument to be reclassified from Level 1 to Level 2, or from Level 2 to Level 3. The Company recognizes transfers between levels at either the actual date of the event or a change in circumstances that caused the transfer. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 , there were no transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Summary of Significant Valuation Techniques Level 2 Measurements: Senior secured notes : Estimated based on quoted prices for identical senior secured notes in non-active market. Level 3 Measurements: Term loans : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including principal and interest payments and discount rate. A yield rate was estimated using yields rates for publicly traded debt instruments of comparable companies with similar features. An increase or decrease in the stock price and the discount rate assumption can significantly decrease or increase the fair value of term loans. See Note 8. Warrants : Estimated using the Binomial Lattice option valuation model. Significant observable and unobservable inputs include stock price, exercise price, annual risk free rate, term, and expected volatility. An increase or decrease in these inputs could significantly increase or decrease the fair value of the warrant. See Notes 8 and 11. Indefinite-lived assets - goodwill : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including gross profit, discount rate, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, depreciation and terminal value assumptions. An increase or decrease in the discount rate assumption and/or the terminal value assumption, in isolation, can have a significant effect on the fair value of the reporting unit. Retail stores : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including gross profit and discount rate. The key assumptions used in the estimates of projected cash flows were sales, gross margins, and payroll costs. These forecasts were based on historical trends and take into account recent developments, as well as the Company's plans and intentions. An increase or decrease in the discount rate assumption and/or projected cash flows, in isolation, can significantly decrease or increase the fair value of the assets, which would have an effect on the impairment recorded. Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial reporting basis and the respective tax basis of its assets and liabilities, and are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company estimates the degree to which tax assets and credit carryforwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance for such tax assets and loss carryforwards is provided when it is determined that such amounts will more likely than not go unrealized. Significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. The determination to record a valuation allowance is based on the recent history of cumulative losses and current operating performance and includes an assessment of the degree to which any losses are driven by items that are unusual in nature or incurred to improve future profitability. In addition, the Company reviews changes in near-term market conditions and any other factors arising during the period which may impact its future operating results. If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be realized, any related valuation allowance of such assets would be reversed. Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. Management believes that adequate provisions have been made for all years, but the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company's tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with management’s expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income tax in the period such resolution occurs. The Company's foreign domiciled subsidiaries are subject to foreign income taxes on earnings in their respective jurisdictions. The Company elected to have its foreign subsidiaries, except for its subsidiaries in Brazil, Canada, China, Ireland, Italy, South Korea, and Spain, consolidated in the Company's U.S. federal income tax return. The Company is generally eligible to receive tax credits on its U.S. federal income tax return for most of the foreign taxes paid by the Company's subsidiaries included in the U.S. federal income tax return. For financial statement purposes, the Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Once this threshold has been met, the Company's measurement of its expected tax benefits is recognized in its financial statements. Gross unrecognized tax benefits are included in current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, and interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in the income tax provision in the consolidated statements of operations. Recently Issued Accounting Standards On November 20, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new standard that requires entities to present deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current in a classified balance sheet. The new standard simplifies the current guidance which requires entities to separately present deferred tax assets and liabilities as current and non-current. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 16, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. On August 18, 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that clarifies presentation and measurement of debt issuance costs incurred in connection with line of credit arrangements. The Company adopted the new standard which became effective upon issuance. The adoption of the new standard did not have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. On August 12, 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that defers the effective date of its revenue standard issued in May 2014 by one year for all entities and permits early adoption on a limited basis. The standard will be effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on the Company's consolidated financial statements. On July 22, 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that requires entities to measure most inventory "at the lower of cost and net realizable value," thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new standard will not apply to inventories that are measured by using either the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method or the retail inventory method. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that requires an entity to determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license. If the arrangement contains a software license, the entity would account for the fees related to the software license element in a manner consistent with how the acquisition of other software licenses is accounted for. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, the customer would account for the arrangement as a service contract. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard on simplifying the presentation of debt issuance costs. The new standard requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this new standard. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Other recently issued accounting standards are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.

None of the interest is subject to capitalization for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. Debtor-in-Possession Credit Agreement On October 5, 2015, the Company filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware seeking relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. See Note 1. On October 6, 2015, the Company obtained approval from the Bankruptcy Court of the DIP Credit Agreement between the Company and the Supporting Parties. The DIP Credit Agreement provides for a senior secured, super-priority delayed draw term loan and consists of approximately $90,000 for the purposes of (i) refinancing in full the borrowings outstanding under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility and (ii) providing additional funding of $30,000 , which carries a commitment fee of 2% . The DIP Credit Agreement bears interest at 7.0% for Eurodollar rate loans and 6.0% for base rate loans. Subject to certain conditions, the maturity date of the DIP Credit Agreement is the earlier to occur of April 5, 2016 or the Effective Date of the Plan. On the Effective Date of the Plan, the DIP Credit Agreement will convert to an Exit Term Loan Facility providing for an additional $30,000 in financing, which carries a commitment fee of 2% . The facility bears interest at the LIBOR based rate plus 10.0% and matures four years after conversion. The facility is secured by a first priority senior lien on substantially all assets of the Company. Wilmington Trust will continue to act as administrative agent for both the DIP Credit Agreement and the Exit Term Loan Facility. See Note 1. On January 11, 2016, the Company, the Creditors' Committee and the Supporting Parties reached an agreement on key terms of the Plan which includes a commitment of $40,000 in additional exit capital through an asset-based credit facility from either a third party lender or the Supporting Parties. This additional commitment will be in addition to the $40,000 of new capital previously contemplated by the Equity Commitment Agreement and the Exit Term Loan Facility. See Note 1. Revolving Credit Facility - Wilmington Trust On October 5, 2015, the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility was replaced by the DIP Credit Agreement. On August 17, 2015, Capital One assigned its rights and obligations as a lender to a syndicate of lenders that included certain of the Company's existing creditors, including funds associated with Standard General L.P., Monarch Alternative Capital L.P., Coliseum Capital LLC and Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P., and was replaced by Wilmington Trust as administrative agent. Additionally, on August 17, 2015, the Capital One Credit Facility was amended pursuant to an amended and restated credit agreement among the Company, the new syndicate of lenders and Wilmington Trust (the "Wilmington Trust Credit Facility"). In connection with such amendment, the syndicate of lenders received certain amendment and closing fees and reimbursement of closing expenses. The Wilmington Trust Credit Facility provided for a $90,000 asset-based revolving credit facility and was scheduled to mature on April 4, 2018, subject to a January 15, 2018 maturity in limited circumstances. Borrowings under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility were subject to specified borrowing base requirements not to exceed $60,000 . Amounts repaid under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility could not be re-borrowed. Borrowings under the Capital One Credit Facility continued under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility and bore interest at a LIBOR based rate plus 5.0% or a rate based on the prime rate plus 4.0% . New borrowings under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility bore interest at a LIBOR based rate plus 7.0% or a rate based on the prime rate plus 6.0% , and was subject to specified borrowing requirements and covenants. The Company recorded a loss of $362 on extinguishment of the Capital One Credit Facility. The Wilmington Trust Credit Facility was secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company's and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to some restrictions. Among other provisions, the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility required that the Company maintain a lockbox arrangement and contained certain subjective acceleration clauses. In addition, the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility may have, at its discretion, adjusted the advance restrictions and criteria for eligible inventory and accounts receivable. The Wilmington Trust Credit Facility contained cross-default provisions whereby an event of default under the indenture governing the Notes or other indebtedness, in each case of an amount greater than a specified threshold, would have caused an event of default under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. If an event of default occurred and was continuing under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility, the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility may have, among other things, terminated the obligations of the lenders to make loans, and the obligation of the letter of credit issuer to make letter of credit extensions, and required the Company to repay all outstanding amounts. On August 17, 2015, the Company also entered into amendments to the indenture agreement governing the Notes and the Standard General Loan Agreement to permit the Company to enter into the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. See Note 7. As of September 30, 2015, the Company was not in compliance with the minimum fixed charge coverage ratio and the minimum adjusted EBITDA covenants under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. For the July 1, 2015 through September 30, 2015 covenant reference period, its fixed charge coverage ratio (as defined in the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility) was (0.43) to 1.00 as compared with the covenant minimum of 1.27 to 1.00, and its adjusted EBITDA (as defined in the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility) was $(5,056) as compared with the covenant minimum of $25,071 . Additionally, the commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases as described in Note 1 constitutes an event of default and all commitments under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility were terminated and all loans (including accrued interest and all other amounts outstanding under this facility) became immediately due and payable. As a result of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company believes that the ability of the Debtors' creditors to seek remedies to enforce their respective rights against the Debtors under this and other agreements are stayed and creditor rights of enforcement against the Debtors are subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and certain contractual agreements. Revolving Credit Facility - Capital One On August 17, 2015, the Company replaced the Capital One Credit Facility with the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. The covenant violations existing at June 30, 2015 were waived under the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. The Company was party to a credit agreement, maturing on April 4, 2018, with Capital One, and other lenders party thereto, that provided the Company with a $50,000 asset-backed revolving credit facility. Interest rates on borrowings under the Capital One Credit Facility were equal to LIBOR plus 5.0% or the bank's prime rate plus 4.0% at the Company's option and was subject to specified borrowing requirements and covenants. On March 25, 2015, the Company entered into the Six Amendment which (i) waived any defaults under the Capital One Credit Facility due to the failure to meet the obligation to maintain the maximum leverage ratio and minimum adjusted EBITDA required for the measurement periods ended December 31, 2014, as defined in the credit agreement, (ii) waived the obligation to maintain the minimum fixed charge coverage ratios, maximum leverage ratios and minimum adjusted EBITDA required for the twelve months ended March 31, 2015, (iii) included provisions to permit the Company to enter into the Standard General Credit Agreement (as defined in Note 7), (iv) reset financial covenants relating to maintaining minimum fixed charge coverage ratios, maximum leverage ratios and minimum adjusted EBITDA and (v) permitted the Company to borrow $15,000 under the Standard General Credit Agreement.

(b) Net of unamortized discount of $752 and $816 at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Bankruptcy Filing and Support Agreement On October 5, 2015, the Company filed voluntary petitions in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware seeking relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. See Note 1. The commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases constitutes an event of default under the indenture, dated April 4, 2013, that governs the Notes as well as the Standard General Credit Agreement and the Standard General Loan Agreement. As a result of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, all commitments under the various facilities were terminated and all loans (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts outstanding under such facilities became immediately due and payable. As a result of the filing of the Chapter 11 Cases, the Company believes that the ability of the Debtors' creditors to seek remedies to enforce their respective rights against the Debtors under these and other agreements are stayed and creditor rights of enforcement against the Debtors are subject to the applicable provisions of the Bankruptcy Code and certain contractual agreements. On October 4, 2015, the Company entered into a Restructuring Support Agreement with the syndicate of lenders of the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility, which are also the majority holders of the Notes. Under the terms of the Restructuring Support Agreement, the holders of the Notes will be entitled to receive on a pro rata basis, 100% of the equity interest in the reorganized Company after the conclusion of the Chapter 11 Cases, subject to certain exceptions and additional equity interests being issued or reserved under the Equity Commitment Agreement. See Note 1. Senior Secured Notes due 2020 The Company has outstanding Notes issued at 97% of the $206,000 par value on April 4, 2013 . The Notes mature on April 15, 2020 and bear interest at 15% per annum, of which 2% is payable in-kind until April 14, 2018 and in cash on subsequent interest dates. On April 14, 2015, the Company paid $13,803 in interest on the Notes. The Company did not make the scheduled interest payment on the Notes due on October 15, 2015, which was approximately $13,900 . The Notes are guaranteed, jointly and severally, on a senior secured basis by the Company's existing and future domestic subsidiaries. The Notes and the related guarantees are secured by a first-priority lien on the Company's and its domestic subsidiaries' assets (other than the Credit Facility Priority Collateral, as defined below, subject to some exceptions and permitted liens). The Notes and the related guarantees also are secured by a second-priority lien on all of Company's and its domestic subsidiaries' cash, trade accounts receivable, inventory and certain other assets (collectively, the "Credit Facility Priority Collateral"), subject to certain exceptions and permitted liens. The Notes and the guarantees, respectively, rank equal in right of payment with the Company's and its domestic subsidiaries' senior indebtedness, including indebtedness under the Capital One Credit Facility, before giving effect to collateral arrangements. The Notes impose certain limitations on the ability of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries to, among other things, and subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions, incur additional indebtedness or issue disqualified capital stock or preferred stock (with respect to restricted subsidiaries), grant liens, make payments in respect of their capital stock or certain indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliates, create dividend or other payment restrictions affecting subsidiaries, merge or consolidate with any other person, sell, assign, transfer, lease, convey or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its assets or adopt a plan of liquidation. The Company must annually report to the trustee on compliance with such limitations. The Notes also contain cross-default provisions whereby a payment default or acceleration of any indebtedness in an aggregate amount greater than a specified threshold would cause an event of default with respect to the Notes. On August 17, 2015, the Company also entered into an amendment to the indenture agreement governing the Notes to permit the Company to enter into the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility. See Note 6. As of September 30, 2015 , the Company was in compliance with the covenants of the Indenture. The commencement of the Chapter 11 Cases on October 5, 2015 constituted an event of default under the Indenture. Standard General Loan Agreement On July 16, 2014, Lion Capital LLP ("Lion") assigned its rights and obligations as a lender to an entity affiliated with Standard General (the "Standard General Loan Agreement"). On September 8, 2014, the Company entered into an amendment of the Standard General Loan Agreement to lower the applicable interest rate to 17% , extend the maturity to April 15, 2021 , and make certain other technical amendments. The principal amount of the term loan is $9,865 . Interest under the loan agreement is payable quarterly in cash or, to the extent permitted by the Company's other debt agreements, in-kind. The Standard General Loan Agreement contains cross-default provisions whereby a payment default or acceleration of any indebtedness in an aggregate amount greater than a specified threshold would cause an event of default. On August 17, 2015, in connection with the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility, the Company entered into the Third Amendment to the Standard General Loan Agreement, which amends certain provision of the Standard General Loan Agreement to permit the transaction contemplated by the Wilmington Trust Credit Facility and provides for the payment of consent fees and certain releases and equity registration rights in favor of Standard General. Standard General Credit Agreement On March 25, 2015, as contemplated by the Standstill Agreement, one of the Company's subsidiaries borrowed $15,000 under an unsecured credit agreement with Standard General (the "Standard General Credit Agreement"). The Standard General Credit Agreement is guaranteed by the Company, bears interest at 14% per annum, and will mature on October 15, 2020 . Interest under the credit agreement is payable quarterly in cash or, to the extent permitted by the Company's other debt agreements, in-kind. The Standard General Credit Agreement contains customary defaults, including cross events of default with respect to defaults under the Notes and the Standard General Loan Agreement and cross acceleration to other indebtedness above a threshold amount. If the Company experiences certain change of control events, the Company is required to offer to prepay the Standard General Credit Agreement at 101% of the outstanding principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on the date of the prepayment. The Company will be required to prepay loans under the Standard General Credit Agreement to the extent necessary to avoid the loan being characterized as an "applicable high yield discount obligation" within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code by June 30, 2020. Additionally, under the Restructuring Support Agreement discussed above, Standard General agreed to waive any defaults under this credit agreement (other than defaults arising from the Company's subsidiary's failure to pay principal and interest as they become due) necessary to implement treatment of this credit agreement under the Plan contemplated under the Restructuring Support Agreement and to make reasonable modifications to this credit agreement so long as the Company does not take any action that materially adversely affects the rights of Standard General under this credit agreement and the Plan provides for the reinstatement of Standard General's claims under this credit agreement.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were computed using an effective tax rate estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year, which is subject to ongoing review and evaluation by management. The Company incurred losses from operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 . Based upon these results and the recent history of cumulative losses for the prior three years, as well as trends in the Company's performance projected through 2015, the Company's management believes that it is more likely than not deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions are not fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company will not record any income tax benefits in the condensed consolidated financial statements until it is determined that the Company will generate sufficient taxable income in the respective jurisdictions to realize the deferred income tax assets. As a result of the analysis, the Company determined that a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions, primarily in the U.S., and partial valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions, is required. The Company is subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax in multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. Tax years that remain subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service are 2012 through 2014 . The Company's state and foreign tax returns are open to audit for the calendar years 2010 through 2014 .

Mr. Charney holds an 18.75% ownership interest in American Central Plaza LLC while Mr. Bailey holds a 6.25% interest. The remaining members of American Central Plaza LLC are not affiliated with the Company. Rent expenses (including property taxes and insurance payments) related to this lease were $155 for both the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $466 for both the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014.

Between June 26, 2014 and June 27, 2014, Standard General acquired 27,351 of the Company's outstanding shares, and Mr. Charney purchased those shares at a price of $0.715 per share using the proceeds from the SG-Charney Loan.

At-The-Market Offering On May 11, 2015, the Company commenced a $10,000 "at-the-market" offering program. Under the program, the Company offered and sold shares of its common stock having an aggregate gross sales price of up to $10,000 (but in no event more than 15,000 shares). As of September 30, 2015 , the Company had issued 4,121 shares of its common stock for net proceeds of $1,998 . The Company used the net proceeds generated through the program for working capital and general corporate purposes. Common Stock Warrants Lion-held warrants (the "Lion Warrants") contain certain anti-dilution protections in favor of Lion providing for proportional adjustment of the warrant price and, under certain circumstances, the number of shares of the Company's common stock issuable upon exercise of the Lion Warrants, in connection with, among other things, stock dividends, subdivisions and combinations and the issuance of additional equity securities at less than fair market value, as well as providing for the issuance of additional warrants to Lion in the event of certain equity sales or debt for equity exchanges. As a result of the at-the-market offering program, Lion received the right to purchase an additional 12 shares of the Company's common stock with an adjusted exercise price of all of the Lion Warrants at $0.66 . Such adjustments were required by the terms of the existing Lion warrants. As of September 30, 2015 , the fair value of the 24,523 Lion Warrants, estimated using the Binomial Lattice option valuation model was $724 and was recorded as a current liability in the consolidated balance sheets. The calculation assumed a stock price of $0.11 , exercise price of $0.66 , volatility of 67.20% , annual risk free interest rate of 1.75% , a contractual remaining term of 6.5 years and no dividends. These warrants will expire on February 18, 2022 . The following table presents a summary of common stock warrants activity as of September 30, 2015 : Shares (in thousands) Weighted-Average Exercise Price Weighted-Average Contractual Life (in years) Outstanding - January 1, 2015 24,511 $ 0.66 7.2 Issued (a) 24,523 $ 0.66 6.5 Forfeited (a) (24,511 ) $ 0.66 Expired 0 Outstanding - September 30, 2015 24,523 $ 0.66 6.5 Fair value - September 30, 2015 $ 724 ______________________ (a) Issued and forfeited warrants represent repriced shares. Earnings Per Share The Company presents earnings per share ("EPS") utilizing a dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and reflects net loss divided by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for the period presented. Diluted EPS includes the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The Company had common stock under various options, warrants and other agreements at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . The effects of 33,462 and 39,627 shares at September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share for three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 because their impact would have been anti-dilutive. A summary of the potential stock issuances under various options, warrants and other agreements that could have a dilutive effect on the shares outstanding are as follows: September 30, 2015 2014 Lion warrants 24,523 24,511 Shares issuable to Mr. Charney based on market conditions (a) 6,806 13,611 Employee options and restricted stock units 2,133 1,505 33,462 39,627 ______________________ (a) Charney Anti-Dilution Rights pursuant to the April 26, 2011 Investor Purchase Agreement, of which each 6,805 expired unexercised on April 15, 2015 and 2014 (Note 12).

Share-based Compensation [Abstract]
Share-based Compensation	Share-Based Compensation On October 5, 2015, the Debtors filed voluntary petitions seeking relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code. In connection with the Restructuring Support Agreement entered into on October 4, 2015, the Supporting Parties will receive on a pro rata basis, 100% of the equity interest in the reorganized Company after the conclusion of the Chapter 11 cases. In addition, on the Effective Date of the Plan, the Company's current outstanding common stock, any preferred stock purchase rights and any options, warrants or any other equity interests will be extinguished with no consideration. See Note 1. The American Apparel, Inc. 2011 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the "2011 Plan") authorized the granting of a variety of incentive awards, the exercise or vesting of which would allow up to an aggregate of 17,500 shares of the Company's common stock to be acquired by the holders of such awards and authorized up to 3,000 shares that might be awarded to any one participant during any calendar year. The purpose of the 2011 Plan was to provide an incentive to selected employees, directors, independent contractors, and consultants of the Company or its affiliates, and provided that the Company might grant options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, and other stock-based and cash-based awards. As of September 30, 2015, there were 9,408 shares available for future grants under the 2011 Plan. The Company had identified a clerical discrepancy in its records pertaining to the total historic number of shares issued in connection with grants of common stock to employees under its stock incentive plans, which resulted in an immaterial adjustment to issued and outstanding shares in the second quarter of 2015. Restricted Share Awards - The following table presents a summary of the restricted share awards activity as of September 30, 2015: Shares (in thousands) Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share Weighted-Average Remaining Vesting Period (in years) Non-vested - January 1, 2015 103 $ 1.17 0.3 Granted 578 $ 0.36 Vested (673 ) $ 0.47 Forfeited (8 ) $ 1.88 Non-vested - September 30, 2015 0 0 0.0 On January 2, 2015 , the Company issued quarterly stock grants to six directors for services performed ranging from approximately 10 to 19 shares each based on grant date fair value of $1.05 per share. On April 2, 2015, the Company issued quarterly stock grants to six directors for services performed ranging from approximately 15 to 29 shares each based on the grant date fair value of $0.69 per share. On July 10, 2015, the Company issued quarterly stock grants to six directors for services performed ranging from approximately 16 to 38 shares each based on the grant date fair value of $0.52 per share. On September 30, 2015, the Company issued quarterly stock grants to five directors for services performed of approximately 63 shares each based on the grant fair value of $0.16 per share. Vesting of the restricted share awards is immediate in the case of members of the Board. Share-based compensation is recognized over the vesting period based on the grant-date fair value. Restricted Stock Units - The following table presents a summary of the restricted stock units activity as of September 30, 2015 : Shares (in thousands) Weighted-Average Grant Date Fair Value Per Share Weighted-Average Remaining Vesting Period (in years) Non-vested - January 1, 2015 0 $ 0.00 0.0 Granted 1,237 $ 0.70 Vested (191 ) $ 0.71 Forfeited 0 $ 0.00 Non-vested - September 30, 2015 1,046 1.6 In 2015, the Company granted 1,237 shares of restricted stock units to certain employees under the 2011 Plan. These awards will vest, subject to each employee's continued service, over three years , with one-third of the total number of shares subject to each award vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant. In addition, the Company granted a one-time award of restricted stock units for 150 shares of common stock each to three senior management in recognition of their services to the Company, which vested on April 15, 2015. The fair value of the restricted share grant was determined based on the market price on the date of grant. Share-based compensation is recognized over the vesting period based on the grant-date fair value. Stock Option Awards - The following table presents a summary of the stock option activity as of September 30, 2015 : Shares (in thousands) Weighted-Average Exercise Price Weighted-Average Contractual Remaining Life (in years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value (in thousands) Outstanding - January 1, 2015 0 $ 0.00 0.0 Granted 1,087 $ 0.70 Exercised 0 $ 0.00 Forfeited 0 $ 0.00 Expired 0 $ 0.00 Outstanding - September 30, 2015 1,087 $ 0.70 9.5 $ 0 Vested - September 30, 2015 41 $ 0.71 9.5 $ 0 Non-vested - September 30, 2015 1,046 $ 0.70 9.5 $ 0 In 2015, the Company awarded stock options for 1,087 shares of its common stock to certain employees under the 2011 Plan. These awards will vest, subject to each employee's continued service, over three years , with one-third of the total number of shares subject to each award vesting on the first anniversary of the date of grant, and remain exercisable for ten years from the date of grant. The fair value of the stock option awards is estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model at the grant date. The fair value of stock options granted during the nine months ended September 30, 2015 was $400 . The calculation assumed a stock price of $0.70 , exercise price of $0.70 , volatility of 61.28% , annual risk free interest rate of 0.93% , expected option life of six years and no dividends. Share-Based Compensation Expense - The Company recorded share-based compensation expenses of $147 and $1,106 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $561 and $3,764 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively, related to its share-based compensation awards that are expected to vest. No amounts have been capitalized. As of September 30, 2015 , unrecorded compensation cost related to non-vested awards was $946 , which is expected to be recognized within a year. Mr. Charney Anti-Dilution Rights - On December 16, 2014, the Board terminated Dov Charney for cause in accordance with the terms of his employment agreement. Despite the termination, the unexercised anti-dilution rights remain exercisable under the 2011 Investor Purchase Agreement but are immediately vested. The remaining unrecognized compensation cost of $233 was recognized as of December 31, 2014 . The Company determined that the issuing requirements for the first and second measurement periods were not met and each 6,805 anti-dilution rights expired unexercised on April 15, 2015 and 2014 .

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]
Commitments and Contingencies	Commitments and Contingencies Operating Leases The Company conducts retail operations under operating leases that expire at various dates through 2034. The Company's primary manufacturing facilities and executive offices are currently under a long-term lease that expires on July 31, 2019 . The rent expenses (including real estate taxes and common area maintenance costs) were $18,601 and $18,271 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $52,331 and $55,611 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. The Company did not incur any significant contingent rent during these periods. Rent expense is allocated to cost of sales for production-related activities, selling expenses for retail stores, and the remainder to general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations. Real Estate Matter On July 27, 2015, the Company entered into a second amendment to the lease agreement for its headquarters and manufacturing facility in Los Angeles, California, resolving certain alleged breaches under the lease agreement with the landlord. Under the terms of the amendment, the Company will vacate one of the leased buildings (an under-utilized building not occupied by any manufacturing or distribution operations) by April 1, 2016, which, assuming timely payments, would result in a fifty percent, or $2,100 , reduction in annual base rent starting on April 1, 2016. Additionally, the amendment reduces certain rent, fees, interest and reimbursements incurred primarily from the first half of 2014 from $2,995 to $1,800 , which will be paid in eleven monthly installments from April 1, 2016 through February 1, 2017. Advertising The Company had approximately $414 in open advertising commitments at September 30, 2015 , which were primarily allocated among print advertisements in newspapers, magazines and outdoor advertising. The majority of these commitments were paid in 2015 .

Workers' Compensation and Other

Workers' Compensation and Other Self-Insurance Reserves	9 Months Ended

Workers' Compensation and Other Self-Insurance Reserves [Abstract]
Workers' Compensation and Other Self-Insurance Reserves	Workers' Compensation and Other Self-Insurance Reserves The Company uses a combination of third-party insurance and self-insurance for a number of risks including workers' compensation, medical benefits provided to employees, and general liability claims. General liability primarily relates to litigation that arises from store operations. Estimating liability is a difficult process as many factors can ultimately affect the final settlement of a claim and, therefore, the reserve required. Changes in future inflation rates, litigation trends, legal interpretations, benefit levels, and settlement patterns, among other factors, can impact ultimate claim costs. The Company estimates liability by utilizing loss development factors based on its specific data to project the future development of incurred losses. Loss estimates are adjusted based upon actual claim settlements and reported claims. Although the Company does not expect ultimate claim costs to significantly differ from its estimates, self-insurance reserves could be affected if actual developed claims fluctuate considerably from the historical trends and the assumptions applied. The Company's estimated claims are discounted using a rate of 1.55% with a duration that approximates the duration of its self-insurance reserve portfolio. The undiscounted liabilities were $22,379 and $20,409 as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. The workers' compensation liability is based on an estimate of losses for claims incurred but not paid at the end of the period. Funding is made directly to the providers and/or claimants by the insurance company. To guarantee performance under the workers' compensation program, the Company issued standby letters of credit of $300 in favor of insurance companies' beneficiaries as of both September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , and cash deposits of $21,053 and $16,124 in favor of insurance company beneficiaries as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. At September 30, 2015 , the Company recorded a total reserve of $21,428 , of which $5,832 is included in accrued expenses and $15,596 is included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2014 , the Company recorded a total reserve of $19,560 , of which $5,321 is included in accrued expenses and $14,239 is included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company self-insures its health insurance benefit obligations while the claims are administered through a third party administrator. The medical benefit liability is based on estimated losses for claims incurred but not paid at the end of the period. Funding is made directly to the providers and/or claimants by the insurance company. The Company's total reserve of $1,517 and $1,439 was included in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.

Segments, Geographical Areas [Abstract]
Business Segment and Geographic Area Information	Business Segment and Geographic Area Information The Company reports the following four operating segments based on the management approach: U.S. Wholesale, U.S. Retail, Canada, and International. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company's reportable segments. The U.S. Wholesale segment consists of the Company's wholesale operations of undecorated apparel products sold to distributors and third party screen printers in the U.S. as well as its online consumer sales. The Retail segment consists of the Company's retail operations in the U.S., which comprised 130 retail stores as of September 30, 2015 . The Canada segment includes wholesale, retail, and online consumer operations in Canada. As of September 30, 2015 , the retail operations in the Canada segment comprised 30 retail stores. The International segment includes wholesale, retail, and online consumer operations outside of the U.S. and Canada. As of September 30, 2015 , the retail operations in the International segment comprised 67 retail stores operating in 17 countries outside the U.S. and Canada. All of the Company's retail stores sell its apparel products directly to consumers. The Company evaluates performance of its operating segments primarily based on net sales and operating income or loss from operations. Operating income or loss for each segment does not include corporate general and administrative expenses, interest expense and other miscellaneous income/expense items. Corporate general and administrative expenses include, but are not limited to, human resources, legal, finance, information technology, accounting, executive compensation and various other corporate level expenses.

Litigation

Litigation	9 Months Ended

Litigation Settlement [Abstract]
Litigation	Litigation The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies in the ordinary course of business that arise from litigation, business transactions, operations, employee-related matters, or taxes. The Company establishes reserves when it believes a loss is probable and is able to estimate its potential exposure. For loss contingencies believed to be reasonably possible, the Company also discloses the nature of the loss contingency and an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Insurance may cover a portion of such losses; however, certain matters could arise for which we do not have insurance coverage or for which insurance provides only partial coverage. These matters could have a material negative effect on the Company's business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In all cases, the Company vigorously defends itself unless a reasonable settlement appears appropriate. On January 27, 2016, the Bankruptcy Court entered the Confirmation Order confirming the Plan. Under the Plan, the Company's financial responsibility for the following claims will be discharged and/or permanently enjoined, subject to ongoing obligations to indemnify certain parties named as co-defendants in some of the listed litigation. SEC Investigation On February 5, 2015, the Company learned that the Securities and Exchange Commission had issued a formal order of investigation to determine whether, during Mr. Charney's tenure as CEO of the Company, there were any violations of federal securities laws. The SEC's investigation is a non-public, fact-finding inquiry to determine whether any violations of law have occurred. The Company intends to cooperate fully with the SEC in its investigation. Shareholder Litigation In 2010, two shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California (the "Court") that were subsequently consolidated for all purposes into a case entitled In re American Apparel, Inc. Shareholder Derivative Litigation, Lead Case No. CV106576 (the "First Derivative Action"). Plaintiffs in the First Derivative Action alleged a cause of action for breach of fiduciary duty arising out of (i) the Company's alleged failure to maintain adequate accounting and internal control policies and procedures; (ii) the Company's alleged violation of state and federal immigration laws in connection with the previously disclosed termination of employees following an Immigration and Customs Enforcement inspection; and (iii) the Company's alleged failure to implement controls sufficient to prevent a sexually hostile and discriminatory work environment. The Company does not maintain any direct exposure to loss in connection with these shareholder derivative lawsuits. The Company's status as a "Nominal Defendant" in the actions reflects that the lawsuits are purportedly maintained by the named plaintiffs on behalf of American Apparel and that plaintiffs seek damages on the Company's behalf. The Company filed a motion to dismiss the First Derivative Action which was granted with leave to amend on July 31, 2012. Plaintiffs did not amend the complaint and subsequently filed a motion to dismiss each of their claims, with prejudice, for the stated purpose of taking an immediate appeal of the Court's July 31, 2012 order. On October 16, 2012, the Court granted the plaintiffs' motion to dismiss and entered judgment accordingly. On November 12, 2012, plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals where the case is currently pending. In 2010, four shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles (the "Superior Court") which were subsequently consolidated for all purposes into a case entitled In re American Apparel, Inc. Shareholder Derivative Litigation, Lead Case No. BC 443763 (the "State Derivative Action"). Three of the matters comprising the State Derivative Action alleged causes of action for breach of fiduciary duty arising out of (i) the Company's alleged failure to maintain adequate accounting and internal control policies and procedures; and (ii) the Company's alleged violation of state and federal immigration laws in connection with the previously disclosed termination of employees following an Immigration and Customs Enforcement inspection. The fourth matter alleges seven causes of action for breach of fiduciary duty, unjust enrichment, abuse of control, gross mismanagement, and waste of corporate assets also arising out of the same allegations. On April 12, 2011, the Superior Court issued an order granting a stay (which currently remains in place) of the State Derivative Action on the grounds that, among other reasons, the case is duplicative of the First Derivative Action. In July 2014, two shareholder derivative lawsuits were filed in the Court that were subsequently consolidated for all purposes into a case entitled In re American Apparel, Inc. 2014 Shareholder Derivative Litigation, Lead Case No. CV1405230 (the "Second Derivative Action," and together with the First Derivative Action, the "Federal Derivative Actions"). Plaintiffs in the Second Derivative Action alleged similar causes of action for breach of fiduciary duty by failing to (i) maintain adequate internal control and exercise proper oversight over Mr. Charney, whose alleged misconduct and mismanagement has purportedly harmed the Company's operations and financial condition, (ii) ensure Mr. Charney's suspension as CEO did not trigger material defaults under two of the Company's credit agreements, and (iii) prevent Mr. Charney from increasing his ownership percentage of the Company. The Second Derivative Action primarily seeks to recover damages and reform corporate governance and internal procedures. The Company does not maintain any direct exposure to loss in connection with these shareholder derivative lawsuits. The Company's status as a "Nominal Defendant" in the actions reflects that the lawsuits are purportedly maintained by the named plaintiffs on behalf of American Apparel and that plaintiffs seek damages on the Company's behalf. On April 28, 2015, the Court granted the Company's motion to dismiss, with leave to amend. On July 17, 2015, the Court dismissed the action, without prejudice, for failure to prosecute and to comply with court rules and orders. A Notice of Appeal to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals was filed on August 17, 2015. Both the Federal Derivative Actions and State Derivative Action are covered under the Company's Directors and Officers Liability insurance policy, subject to a deductible and a reservation of rights. Should the above matters (i.e., the Federal Derivative Actions or the State Derivative Action) ultimately be decided against the Company in an amount that exceeds the Company's insurance coverage, or if liability is imposed on grounds that fall outside the scope of the Company's Directors and Officers Liability insurance coverage, the Company could not only incur a substantial liability, but also experience an increase in similar suits and suffer reputational harm. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of these matters at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial exposure which could result may change from time to time as the matters proceed through their course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that these matters, either individually or together with the potential for similar suits and reputational harm, will not result in a material financial exposure, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On April 21, 2015, former employee and purported shareholder Jan Willem Hubner and purported shareholder Eric Ribner filed suit against Company directors and the Company in the Court (Case No. 15-2965). This matter was filed as a related case with respect to In re American Apparel, Inc. 2014 Derivative Shareholder Litigation. The lawsuit alleges the following counts: (1) violation of Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder; (2) violation of Section 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act; (3) breach of the duty of disclosure/candor; and (4) aiding and abetting breaches of the duty of disclosure/candor. Both of plaintiffs’ claims are premised on the ground that American Apparel’s April 28, 2014, Proxy Statement (Schedule 14-A) issued in advance of the Company’s 2014 Annual Meeting contained misrepresentations and omissions. On May 1, 2015, plaintiffs filed a motion for preliminary injunction seeking relief substantially similar to that sought by the complaint itself (the "Motion"). On June 8, 2015, the Court denied the Motion. On June 18, 2015, plaintiffs stipulated to dismissal of this action, with prejudice. On June 26, 2015, plaintiffs filed a Notice of Appeal. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims on appeal. On July 28, 2015, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction (the "Motion to Dismiss"). On November 19, 2015, the Ninth Circuit denied the Motion to Dismiss, without prejudice to renewing arguments in the answering brief. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial exposure which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial exposure, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On April 30, 2015, former employee and purported shareholder Eliana Gil Rodriguez filed a putative class action lawsuit against Company directors, a former Company officer, and Standard General L.P. in the Delaware Chancery Court (Case No. 10944). The lawsuit alleges breach of fiduciary duty claims in connection with the Company's 2014 annual meeting, its secondary offering, the Standstill Agreement, the 2014 adoption of a rights plan, and certain amendments to the bylaws against the former and current Company directors and the named former Company officer. In addition, the lawsuit alleges that Standard General aided and abetted the alleged breaches of fiduciary duty. Plaintiff seeks declaratory relief and requests that the Court order a revote of the Class A directors. On September 18, 2015, the Court granted plaintiff's voluntary dismissal of this action without prejudice. Employment Matters On April 16, 2015, former employees Carlos Hirschberg, Cesar Antonio Palma Cordero, and Dominga Valencia filed a putative class action lawsuit against the Company in the United States District Court for the Central District of California (Case No. 2:15-CV-02827), asserting: (i) violation of the WARN Act (29 U.S.C. § 2101 et seq. ); (ii) violation of the California WARN Act (Labor Code §1400 et seq. ), and (iii) unfair business practices under California Business and Professions Code §17200 et seq. ). The judge in this matter has since dismissed Mr. Hirschberg as a plaintiff. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. This matter is currently stayed with respect to the Company, pursuant to the automatic stay effected by its bankruptcy filing on October 5, 2015. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial exposure which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial exposure, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On April 20, 2015, former employee David Nisenbaum filed a lawsuit against the Company in Los Angeles Superior Court (Case No. BC579342) asserting: (1) religious discrimination in violation of the California Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA); (2) failure to prevent discrimination in violation of FEHA; (3) retaliation in violation of FEHA; (4) wrongful termination in violation of public policy; (5) violation of Labor Code § 1102.5; (6) violation of Labor Code § 1198.5; (7) intentional infliction of emotional distress; and (8) violation of California Business & Professions Code §§ 17200 et seq. On August 11, 2015, the parties stipulated to arbitration. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. This matter is currently stayed with respect to the Company, pursuant to the automatic stay effected by its bankruptcy filing on October 5, 2015. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On or about June 23, 2014, Mr. Charney submitted a demand in arbitration against the Company in connection with his suspension, which had been stayed pending the determination of the Suitability Committee in the Internal Investigation. As a result of Mr. Charney's termination for cause, such stay is no longer in effect. On March 26, 2015, Mr. Charney submitted correspondence to the arbitration body requesting a reinstatement of his demand for arbitration. Mr. Charney has indicated that he intends to seek damages of up to $35 million in connection with claims allegedly arising from his termination for cause. Arbitration has been scheduled for February 2017. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. This matter is currently stayed with respect to the Company, pursuant to the automatic stay effected by its bankruptcy filing on October 5, 2015. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On May 12, 2015, Mr. Charney filed a lawsuit against the Company and a Company director in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles, asserting: (1) defamation; and (2) false light. Mr. Charney alleges that he was defamed and painted in a false light in an April 2015 letter written by the Company director and disseminated to American Apparel employees that states that Mr. Charney was terminated for cause and agreed that he would not return to the Company if he was found not to be suitable pursuant to an independent investigation conducted by the Board. Mr. Charney seeks damages in excess of $20 million . On June 19, 2015, the Company filed an anti-SLAPP Motion seeking to strike the Complaint. On September 30, 2015, the Court granted the anti-SLAPP Motion, effectively dismissing claims as to the Company. On November 20, 2015, Mr. Charney filed a notice of appeal with the California Court of Appeal. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. This matter is currently stayed with respect to the Company, pursuant to the automatic stay effected by its bankruptcy filing on October 5, 2015. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On June 4, 2015, Mr. Charney filed a lawsuit against the Company in Delaware Chancery Court (Case No. 11098-CB) asserting counts for: (1) advancement; and (2) fees on fees. Mr. Charney seeks indemnification for fees and expenses incurred in the lawsuit captioned American Apparel, Inc. v. Dov Charney, Case No. 11033-CB, also filed in Delaware Chancery Court, alleging counts for: (1) breach of contract; and (2) breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing (the "Breach of Contract Action"). The Breach of Contract Action alleges that Mr. Charney violated a Nomination, Standstill and Support Agreement entered into on July 9, 2014, by, among other things, seeking the removal of members of the Board elected at the Company's 2014 annual meeting or by instigating, encouraging, joining, acting in concert with and assisting third parties seeking such removal, and by disparaging the Company by making negative comments about the Company at employee meetings and to the media. The Court entered judgment dismissing Mr. Charney's action for advancement and fees on fees, with prejudice, on September 25, 2015. On June 19, 2015, Mr. Charney filed a lawsuit against the Company and a Company director in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles (Case No. BC585664), asserting: (1) defamation; (2) false light; (3) intentional interference with actual economic relations; (4) intentional interference with prospective economic relations; and (5) violation of Business & Professions Code §§ 17200 et seq. Mr. Charney alleges that he was defamed by the Company director who Mr. Charney alleges told a large shareholder that he was being investigated for matters "criminal" in nature. Mr. Charney seeks damages in excess of $30 million . On August 13, 2015, the Company filed a motion seeking to strike the complaint. The motion was set for hearing on November 2, 2015. However, this matter is currently stayed with respect to the Company, pursuant to the automatic stay effected by its bankruptcy filing on October 5, 2015. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. On June 24, 2015, Mr. Charney filed a lawsuit against the Company, Standard General, L.P. (and certain of its funds), Company directors and a former Company officer in the Superior Court of the State of California for the County of Los Angeles (Case No. BC586119), asserting: (1) violation of California Corporations Code § 25401; (2) intentional misrepresentation; (3) negligent misrepresentation; (4) breach of fiduciary duty; (5) fraud in the inducement/rescission; (6) conspiracy; (7) intentional infliction of emotional distress; (8) negligent infliction of emotional distress; and (9) declaratory relief. Mr. Charney alleges that certain Company officers and directors engaged in fraud and conspiracy to induce Mr. Charney to dilute his equity in the Company such that defendant parties could control the Company. Mr. Charney seeks damages in excess of $100 million . On July 29, 2015, defendants, Standard General, L.P., Standard General Master Fund L.P., and P Standard General Ltd., filed a motion to stay on the ground of inconvenient forum. The Company filed a notice of joinder to the motion this same day. On December 22, 2015, the Court granted the motion in part and stayed the matter in its entirety until all appeals are exhausted, dismissal or final judgment is entered in any case initiated in Delaware, involving all the same issues and parties, or further order of the court. On January 14, 2016, Mr. Charney filed a notice of appeal. The Company believes that Mr. Charney's claims in his June 4, 2015 lawsuit are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. In the first three quarters of 2015, a number of unfair labor practices charges were filed against the Company with the National Labor Relations Board alleging violations of the National Labor Relations Act. All of the unfair labor practice charges that were filed have since been dismissed. Nine of these charges have been appealed and remain pending. The Company believes that all such charges are without merit and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these charges. The Company is unable to predict the outcome of the nine charges at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these charges or the financial liability, if any, which could result may change from time to time as the matters proceed through their course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that these charges together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. In addition, the Company is currently engaged in other employment-related claims incidental to its business. The Company believes that all such claims are without merit or not material and intends to vigorously dispute the validity of these claims. These matters are currently stayed with respect to the Company, pursuant to the automatic stay effected by the Company's bankruptcy filing on October 5, 2015. While the final resolution of such claims cannot be determined based on information at this time, the Company believes, but cannot provide assurance that, the amount and ultimate liability, if any, with respect to these actions will not materially affect its business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Should any of these matters be decided against the Company, it could not only incur liability but also experience an increase in similar suits and suffer reputational harm. Other Matters On April 2, 2015, a purported customer of the Company filed a putative class action, (in San Diego Superior Court (Case No. 37-2015-00011243), for violations of California Civil Code §1747.08 relating to the Company's alleged practices for collecting e-mail addresses in connection with credit card transactions at its retail stores. This matter is currently stayed with respect to the Company, pursuant to the automatic stay effected by its bankruptcy filing on October 5, 2015. The Company intends to aggressively defend against this matter. The Company is unable to predict the financial outcome of this matter at this time, and any views formed as to the viability of these claims or the financial liability which could result may change from time to time as the matter proceeds through its course. Accordingly, adjustments, if any, that might result from the resolution of this matter have not been reflected in the consolidated financial statements. However, no assurance can be made that this matter together with the potential for reputational harm, will not result in a material financial liability, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows.

Summary of Significant Accoun25

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)	9 Months Ended
	Sep. 30, 2015
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation	Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of American Apparel, Inc. and its 100% owned subsidiaries. The condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation. The financial data of the Company included herein is unaudited. The condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain certain information that was included in the annual financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 . Readers are urged to review the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 as well as other publicly filed documents for more complete descriptions and discussions. In the opinion of management, the condensed consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments, including normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary to present fairly the Company's financial position, the results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented. The operating results and cash flows of the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the full year.
Use of Estimates	Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. The most significant estimates include: revenue recognition, inventory valuation and obsolescence; valuation and recoverability of long-lived assets, including the values assigned to goodwill, intangible assets, and property and equipment; fair value calculations, including derivative liabilities; contingencies, including accruals for the outcome of current litigation and assessments and self-insurance; and income taxes, including uncertain income tax positions and recoverability of deferred income taxes and any limitations as to net operating losses. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Credit Risk	Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risk consist primarily of cash (the amounts of which may, at times, exceed Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation limits on insurable amounts) and trade accounts receivable (including credit card receivables) relating substantially to the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment. Cash is managed within established guidelines, and the Company mitigates its risk by investing through major financial institutions. The Company had $7,769 and $6,361 held in foreign banks at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. Concentration of credit risk with respect to trade accounts receivable is limited by performing on-going credit evaluations of its customers and adjusting credit limits based upon payment history and the customer's current credit worthiness. The Company also maintains an insurance policy for certain customers based on a customer's credit rating and established limits. Collections and payments from customers are continuously monitored. Three customers in the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment combined accounted for 36.3% of its total trade accounts receivable as of September 30, 2015 . One customer in the Company's U.S. Wholesale segment combined accounted for 16.6% of its total trade accounts receivable as of December 31, 2014 . The Company maintains an allowance for doubtful accounts which is based upon historical experience and specific customer collection issues that have been identified. While bad debt expenses have historically been within expectations and allowances established, the Company cannot guarantee that it will continue to experience the same credit loss rates that it has in the past.
Fair Value Measurements	Fair Value Measurements The financial instruments recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheets include cash, trade accounts receivable (including credit card receivables), accounts payable, revolving credit facilities, senior secured notes, term loans and warrants. Due to their short-term maturity, the carrying values of cash, trade accounts receivables, and accounts payable approximate their fair market values. In addition, the carrying amount of the revolving credit facility from Capital One approximates its fair value because of the variable market interest rate charged to the Company. The Company employs a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date using the exit price. Accordingly, when market observable data is not readily available, the Company's own assumptions are used to reflect those that market participants would be presumed to use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. Assets and liabilities recorded on the consolidated balance sheets at fair value are categorized based on the level of judgment associated with inputs used to measure their fair value and the level of market price observability, as follows: Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities as of the reporting date. Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than unadjusted quoted prices in active markets, which are based on the following: • Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets; • Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets; or • Either directly or indirectly observable inputs as of the reporting date. Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable and significant to the overall fair value measurement, and the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. The valuation policies and procedures underlying are determined by the Company's accounting and finance team and are approved by the Chief Financial Officer. In certain cases, inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls has been determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Thus, a Level 3 fair value measurement may include inputs that are observable (Level 1 or Level 2) and unobservable (Level 3). The Company's assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment and consideration of factors specific to the asset or liability. The Company uses prices and inputs that are current as of the measurement date, including during periods of market disruption. In periods of market disruption, the ability to observe prices and inputs may be reduced for many instruments. This condition could cause an instrument to be reclassified from Level 1 to Level 2, or from Level 2 to Level 3. The Company recognizes transfers between levels at either the actual date of the event or a change in circumstances that caused the transfer. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 , there were no transfers between Levels 1, 2, and 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Summary of Significant Valuation Techniques Level 2 Measurements: Senior secured notes : Estimated based on quoted prices for identical senior secured notes in non-active market. Level 3 Measurements: Term loans : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including principal and interest payments and discount rate. A yield rate was estimated using yields rates for publicly traded debt instruments of comparable companies with similar features. An increase or decrease in the stock price and the discount rate assumption can significantly decrease or increase the fair value of term loans. See Note 8. Warrants : Estimated using the Binomial Lattice option valuation model. Significant observable and unobservable inputs include stock price, exercise price, annual risk free rate, term, and expected volatility. An increase or decrease in these inputs could significantly increase or decrease the fair value of the warrant. See Notes 8 and 11. Indefinite-lived assets - goodwill : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including gross profit, discount rate, working capital requirements, capital expenditures, depreciation and terminal value assumptions. An increase or decrease in the discount rate assumption and/or the terminal value assumption, in isolation, can have a significant effect on the fair value of the reporting unit. Retail stores : Estimated using a projected discounted cash flow analysis based on unobservable inputs including gross profit and discount rate. The key assumptions used in the estimates of projected cash flows were sales, gross margins, and payroll costs. These forecasts were based on historical trends and take into account recent developments, as well as the Company's plans and intentions. An increase or decrease in the discount rate assumption and/or projected cash flows, in isolation, can significantly decrease or increase the fair value of the assets, which would have an effect on the impairment recorded. Fair Value of Financial Instruments The Company's financial instruments at fair value are measured on a recurring basis. Related unrealized gains or losses are recognized in unrealized gain on change in fair value of warrants in the consolidated statements of operations. For additional disclosures regarding methods and assumptions used in estimating fair values of these financial instruments, see Note 2. The following tables present carrying amounts and fair values of the Company's financial instruments as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , and indicate the fair value hierarchy of the valuation techniques utilized by the Company to determine such fair value. The Company did not have any assets or liabilities categorized as Level 1 as of September 30, 2015 .
Income Taxes	Income Taxes Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial reporting basis and the respective tax basis of its assets and liabilities, and are measured using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company estimates the degree to which tax assets and credit carryforwards will result in a benefit based on expected profitability by tax jurisdiction. A valuation allowance for such tax assets and loss carryforwards is provided when it is determined that such amounts will more likely than not go unrealized. Significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. The determination to record a valuation allowance is based on the recent history of cumulative losses and current operating performance and includes an assessment of the degree to which any losses are driven by items that are unusual in nature or incurred to improve future profitability. In addition, the Company reviews changes in near-term market conditions and any other factors arising during the period which may impact its future operating results. If it becomes more likely than not that a tax asset will be realized, any related valuation allowance of such assets would be reversed. Management makes judgments as to the interpretation of the tax laws that might be challenged upon an audit and cause changes to previous estimates of tax liability. In addition, the Company operates within multiple taxing jurisdictions and is subject to audit in these jurisdictions. Management believes that adequate provisions have been made for all years, but the outcome of tax audits cannot be predicted with certainty. If any issues addressed in the Company's tax audits are resolved in a manner not consistent with management’s expectations, the Company could be required to adjust its provision for income tax in the period such resolution occurs. The Company's foreign domiciled subsidiaries are subject to foreign income taxes on earnings in their respective jurisdictions. The Company elected to have its foreign subsidiaries, except for its subsidiaries in Brazil, Canada, China, Ireland, Italy, South Korea, and Spain, consolidated in the Company's U.S. federal income tax return. The Company is generally eligible to receive tax credits on its U.S. federal income tax return for most of the foreign taxes paid by the Company's subsidiaries included in the U.S. federal income tax return. For financial statement purposes, the Company recognizes tax benefits from uncertain tax positions only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position. Once this threshold has been met, the Company's measurement of its expected tax benefits is recognized in its financial statements. Gross unrecognized tax benefits are included in current liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets, and interest and penalties on unrecognized tax benefits are recorded in the income tax provision in the consolidated statements of operations. Income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 were computed using an effective tax rate estimated to be applicable for the full fiscal year, which is subject to ongoing review and evaluation by management. The Company incurred losses from operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 . Based upon these results and the recent history of cumulative losses for the prior three years, as well as trends in the Company's performance projected through 2015, the Company's management believes that it is more likely than not deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions are not fully realizable. Accordingly, the Company will not record any income tax benefits in the condensed consolidated financial statements until it is determined that the Company will generate sufficient taxable income in the respective jurisdictions to realize the deferred income tax assets. As a result of the analysis, the Company determined that a full valuation allowance against the net deferred tax assets in certain jurisdictions, primarily in the U.S., and partial valuation allowances in certain foreign jurisdictions, is required.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards	Recently Issued Accounting Standards On November 20, 2015, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued a new standard that requires entities to present deferred tax assets and liabilities as non-current in a classified balance sheet. The new standard simplifies the current guidance which requires entities to separately present deferred tax assets and liabilities as current and non-current. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 16, 2016, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. On August 18, 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that clarifies presentation and measurement of debt issuance costs incurred in connection with line of credit arrangements. The Company adopted the new standard which became effective upon issuance. The adoption of the new standard did not have any impact on the Company's consolidated financial statements. On August 12, 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that defers the effective date of its revenue standard issued in May 2014 by one year for all entities and permits early adoption on a limited basis. The standard will be effective for fiscal years and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on the Company's consolidated financial statements. On July 22, 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that requires entities to measure most inventory "at the lower of cost and net realizable value," thereby simplifying the current guidance under which an entity must measure inventory at the lower of cost or market. The new standard will not apply to inventories that are measured by using either the last-in, first-out (LIFO) method or the retail inventory method. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard that requires an entity to determine whether a cloud computing arrangement contains a software license. If the arrangement contains a software license, the entity would account for the fees related to the software license element in a manner consistent with how the acquisition of other software licenses is accounted for. If the arrangement does not contain a software license, the customer would account for the arrangement as a service contract. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. In April 2015, the FASB issued a new standard on simplifying the presentation of debt issuance costs. The new standard requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of that debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. The recognition and measurement guidance for debt issuance costs are not affected by the amendments in this new standard. The new standard will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company is in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its condensed consolidated financial statements. Other recently issued accounting standards are not expected to have a material effect on the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
Inventories	The Company identifies potentially excess and slow-moving inventories by evaluating turn rates, inventory levels and other factors and records lower of cost or market reserves for such identified excess and slow-moving inventories. The Company also establishes reserves for inventory shrinkage for each of its retail locations and warehouse based on the historical results of physical inventory cycle counts.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share	Earnings Per Share The Company presents earnings per share ("EPS") utilizing a dual presentation of basic and diluted EPS. Basic EPS excludes dilution and reflects net loss divided by the weighted-average shares of common stock outstanding for the period presented. Diluted EPS includes the potential dilution that could occur if securities or other contracts to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock. The Company had common stock under various options, warrants and other agreements at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 . The effects of 33,462 and 39,627 shares at September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, were excluded from the calculation of net loss per share for three and nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 because their impact would have been anti-dilutive.
Leases	Operating Leases The Company conducts retail operations under operating leases that expire at various dates through 2034. The Company's primary manufacturing facilities and executive offices are currently under a long-term lease that expires on July 31, 2019 . The rent expenses (including real estate taxes and common area maintenance costs) were $18,601 and $18,271 for the three months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014 , respectively, and $52,331 and $55,611 for the nine months ended September 30, 2015 and 2014. The Company did not incur any significant contingent rent during these periods. Rent expense is allocated to cost of sales for production-related activities, selling expenses for retail stores, and the remainder to general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations.
Workers' Compensation and Other Self-Insurance Reserves	The Company uses a combination of third-party insurance and self-insurance for a number of risks including workers' compensation, medical benefits provided to employees, and general liability claims. General liability primarily relates to litigation that arises from store operations. Estimating liability is a difficult process as many factors can ultimately affect the final settlement of a claim and, therefore, the reserve required. Changes in future inflation rates, litigation trends, legal interpretations, benefit levels, and settlement patterns, among other factors, can impact ultimate claim costs. The Company estimates liability by utilizing loss development factors based on its specific data to project the future development of incurred losses. Loss estimates are adjusted based upon actual claim settlements and reported claims. Although the Company does not expect ultimate claim costs to significantly differ from its estimates, self-insurance reserves could be affected if actual developed claims fluctuate considerably from the historical trends and the assumptions applied. The Company's estimated claims are discounted using a rate of 1.55% with a duration that approximates the duration of its self-insurance reserve portfolio. The undiscounted liabilities were $22,379 and $20,409 as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. The workers' compensation liability is based on an estimate of losses for claims incurred but not paid at the end of the period. Funding is made directly to the providers and/or claimants by the insurance company. To guarantee performance under the workers' compensation program, the Company issued standby letters of credit of $300 in favor of insurance companies' beneficiaries as of both September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , and cash deposits of $21,053 and $16,124 in favor of insurance company beneficiaries as of September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively. At September 30, 2015 , the Company recorded a total reserve of $21,428 , of which $5,832 is included in accrued expenses and $15,596 is included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2014 , the Company recorded a total reserve of $19,560 , of which $5,321 is included in accrued expenses and $14,239 is included in other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company self-insures its health insurance benefit obligations while the claims are administered through a third party administrator. The medical benefit liability is based on estimated losses for claims incurred but not paid at the end of the period. Funding is made directly to the providers and/or claimants by the insurance company. The Company's total reserve of $1,517 and $1,439 was included in accrued expenses in the consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2015 and December 31, 2014 , respectively.
Business Segment and Geographic Area Information	Business Segment and Geographic Area Information The Company reports the following four operating segments based on the management approach: U.S. Wholesale, U.S. Retail, Canada, and International. The management approach designates the internal reporting used by management for making decisions and assessing performance as the source of the Company's reportable segments.
Litigation	The Company is subject to various claims and contingencies in the ordinary course of business that arise from litigation, business transactions, operations, employee-related matters, or taxes. The Company establishes reserves when it believes a loss is probable and is able to estimate its potential exposure. For loss contingencies believed to be reasonably possible, the Company also discloses the nature of the loss contingency and an estimate of the possible loss or range of loss, or a statement that such an estimate cannot be made. Insurance may cover a portion of such losses; however, certain matters could arise for which we do not have insurance coverage or for which insurance provides only partial coverage. These matters could have a material negative effect on the Company's business, financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In all cases, the Company vigorously defends itself unless a reasonable settlement appears appropriate.
