We are pleased to learn that Playboy Clothing ANZ has shut down its website. The official distributor of licensed Playboy apparel for Australia and New Zealand previously supplied popular youth retailers including City Beach and Culture Kings with its porn branded merchandise.
A Google search of the company returned this announcement:
(No regrets here, Playboy.)

4. Playboy trades off its porn mag roots

While it’s unclear what the closure means for rubbish retailers that continue to flog Playboy merch, we’re saying good riddance to Playboy's Aussie apparel arm. But there’s still more to do!
