LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
This Giving Tuesday, Skechers celebrates its latest charitable milestone: reaching $12 million in total donations since the inception of its philanthropic BOBS® from Skechers® collection in 2015. Through sales of the BOBS brand, Skechers’ contributions have now helped save and support more than 2.2 million shelter pets across the United States, Canada, the U.K. and Japan.

“Like so many of the animals we’ve helped save, our BOBS from Skechers journey has taken us to surprising, emotional and joyous places these past nine years,” said Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers. “We’ve really grown a movement across North America. Through our partnership with Petco Love and its 4,000-strong animal welfare organization network, we have provided much-needed grants to shelters that save dogs and cats, offered disaster relief in times of crisis, eased overcrowded shelters to give more animals a chance at survival, and given people the unconditional love of a furry friend. It’s even changed our employees as a company of pet lovers—inspiring us to organize adoption events at our stores and start our Paws for a Cause Design Scholarship, which gives consumers a chance to wear talented students’ shoe patterns and recognizes their deeply personal shelter pet stories.”
“From supporting our lifesaving mission to celebrating our Love Stories winners and recipient animal welfare partner organizations, Skechers has been there to honor the joys that come with saving lives,” added Susanne Kogut, president of national non-profit organization Petco Love. “With more than $8.4 million given to Petco Love, Skechers has dedicated its team, time and resources to rally for our extensive network of organizations, events, and causes. We are grateful for their years of commitment and look forward to saving even more shelter pets together.”
Beyond Skechers’ and Petco Love’s impact on dogs and cats in the United States and Canada, the Company’s lifesaving movement includes partnerships with Woodgreen Pets Charity in the U.K. and ALMA in Japan. Through purchases of BOBS from Skechers product as well as register round-ups at Skechers stores, the Company’s donations have funded years of adoption, vaccination, and check presentation events for animal welfare organizations.
Launched in 2023, Skechers’ Paws for a Cause Design Scholarship now offers winning students $10,000 scholarships, mentorships with Skechers leadership, and the opportunity to have their designs produced as part of the BOBS collection. Over the past year, the Company also participated in the first-ever televised Stanley Pup and Pawlympics at LA Coliseum as well as Paws in the Park in New York’s Union Square, and teamed up with Watching New York to encourage adoptions and raise awareness for shelter pets.
The BOBS from Skechers philanthropic offering of shoes, apparel and accessories is available online, at Skechers stores, and at department and specialty locations.

About BOBS® from Skechers®

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–
Coach Andy Reid takes his championship-winning focus and drive to another champion in its field: Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins®. As the latest Skechers ambassador, the Kansas City Chiefs leader is now appearing in a Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins print campaign that illustrates the comfort and convenience of the brand’s innovative and effortless signature footwear collection.

“I tell our players to never get too comfortable mentally, but after standing on NFL sidelines for more than 30 years I can very much appreciate being able to kick off—or slip in—to my shoes comfortably,” said Andy Reid. “Skechers knows comfort better than anyone and these Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins are the best thing to ever happen in footwear! Who has time to worry about tying laces when we have games to win!”
“Coaching championship-caliber teams takes everything you’ve got, so anyone will understand exactly why Coach Reid appreciates the comfort and ease of Skechers Hands Free Slip-ins,” said Michael Greenberg, president of Skechers. “Only Skechers has the signature hands-free technology to help one of the most recognizable and successful active coaches in the league stay comfortable during downtime—so he’s always ready to go hands free. Plus, our innovative Skechers Slip-ins collection is perfect for fans—just step in and head to the tailgate.”
Now in the midst of his 12th season as head coach of the Kansas City Chiefs, Andy Reid previously spent 14 seasons as head coach of the Philadelphia Eagles. With a career head coaching record of 294-161-1, Reid is the only NFL coach to achieve key milestones with two different franchises: more than 100 wins as well as appearing in four consecutive conference championship games. He’s a three-time Super Bowl champion (LIV, LVII, LVIII), 2002 AP NFL Coach of the Year and three-time Sporting News Coach of the Year (2000, 2002, 2018).
Andy Reid joins a team of global Skechers ambassadors—from music icon Snoop Dogg, lifestyle legend Martha Stewart, comedian Howie Mandel, and TV and fitness personalities Amanda Kloots and Brooke Burke to former professional athletes such as Tony Romo, Howie Long, and Sugar Ray Leonard.
