Skechers U.S.A., Inc. Company Profile
Skechers' chairman and CEO Robert Greenberg knows how to land on his feet. The founder of 1980s icon L.A. Gear heads Skechers, which sports some 2,500 styles of trendy footwear (oxfords, boots, sneakers, sandals, and semi-dressy shoes) geared toward men, women, and children. Skechers (street slang for "can't stand still") are sold through department and specialty stores, as well as more than 200 company-owned stores (mostly outlets) and its Web site. Its manufacturing is outsourced primarily to Chinese contractors. Greenberg and his family control about 79% of Skechers' voting power. In recent years Skechers has entered into dozens of licensing agreements for men's, women's, and children's apparel.
