  • 2020 Annual Report Annual 2020
    2020 ANNUAL REPORT 2020 ANNUAL SKECHERS USA, INC. 228 Manhattan Beach Blvd. REPORT Manhattan Beach, California 90266 February 2021 To our Shareholders, We would like to express our sincere hope that you and your loved ones are staying safe and healthy during this on-going health crisis. We began 2020 with the same positive momentum that drove record revenues in 2019. The first quarter showed significant growth until COVID-19 leaped from Asia to Europe, the United States and virtually every market around the globe. By the end of March, most of the world pressed pause as the pandemic took hold and within weeks, we temporarily closed offices and stores, and faced a new normal of doing business and living. At Skechers, the ability to pivot quickly has been a hallmark of our business and success since our beginning. 2020 put our flexibility to the test as we adapted to this new reality. With the global infrastructure we have in place, our teams around the world were able to effectively work from home. The speed of our actions early on allowed us to weather the worst of the pandemic in the first and second quarters with as minimal impact as possible considering the unprecedented challenges. By the close of the second quarter, China had already returned to sales growth of 11.5 percent, and many of our biggest international markets, including Germany and the United Kingdom, showed meaningful recovery. Our quick action and our efforts to efficiently manage both inventory and expenses also resulted in Skechers emerging in a relatively strong position as markets began to re-open.

  • Skechers Brings Back Original '90S Fashion Sneakers
    May 8, 2019 Skechers Brings Back Original ‘90s Fashion Sneakers Skechers® Roadies Return in a Heritage Collection of the Brand’s Signature Chunky Styles with Skechers® Cleats Retro and Skechers® Heartbeats Coming Soon MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Footwear giant Skechers is reviving the brand’s original fashion sneaker designs from the 1990s to meet demand driven by the massive throwback trend dominating sneaker markets around the globe. Bridging the gap between grunge and pop, and now known as the Skechers Heritage collection, this classic line features a return of Skechers Roadies, Skechers Cleats Retro and Skechers Heartbeats styles that were among the hottest sellers in Skechers early history. It begins with Skechers Roadies—the first Skechers sneaker to hit the market back in 1994, this was the original chunky utility style that started it all. At the time it was like nothing seen before in a fashion sneaker, featuring a lugged outsole inspired by the brand’s first style, a Skechers Sport Utility logger boot. Skechers Heartbeats soon followed and added an iconic heel to the rugged sneaker, for an extra splash of style that’s a signature of the brand. And in 1996, Skechers Cleats Retro dropped on the world featuring an even chunkier platform outsole that takes the retro look to new heights. “Building off the chunky sneaker trend dominated by our Skechers D’Lites collection, we felt it was the perfect time to bring back our first fashion sneakers that started it all—Roadies, Cleats Retro, and Heartbeats,” began Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers. “We’ve seen fashionistas gravitating towards ‘80s and ‘90s style.

  • Multi-Department Stores
    MULTI-DEPARTMENT STORES Our multi-department stores operate under the Fred Meyer® banner with 132 locations in Alaska, Idaho, Oregon and Washington. Averaging over 161,000 square feet, this format is far larger than a Kroger® combo store. Most Fred Meyer locations also house a Fred Meyer Jewelers® (the nations’ 3rd largest jeweler), and 100 have a Fred Meyer Fuel Center. The average investment to build a multi-department store is over $29 million, including real estate. A Fred Meyer store is unlike any other. It’s not a big box store, hypermarket, supercenter, warehouse store or department store. Instead, Fred Meyer is a collection of specialty stores woven together seamlessly under one roof. The Food Department matches up well with Northwest Customers, who skew higher for healthier lifestyles and finer tastes than most of the country. That’s why since 1971, Fred Meyer has been a leader in bringing natural foods mainstream, with every store devoting an average of 3,000 square feet to natural products. It’s also why most Fred Meyer stores have experienced wine stewards, and why Murray’s Cheese Bar® is so successful here. This comprehensive, well-targeted food store is complemented by: 9 A complete Apparel & Shoe Store for the family 9 A Home Store loaded with fashion and function for every room While competitors might claim to be similar, further differentiation comes from a strong lineup of top brands like Adidas®, Apple®, Ashley®, Beats®, Bose®, Calphalon®, Carhartt®, Columbia Sportswear®, Converse®, DC®, Dockers®, KitchenAid®, Krups®, Levi’s®, Nike®, Quiksilver®, Roxy®, Samsung®, Skechers®, Sony®, Spyder®, Under Armour®, Vans® and Vizio®.
