MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– SKECHERS USA, Inc. (NYSE:SKX), a global leader in the footwear industry and the number two footwear brand in the United States,* today announced that the Company has partnered with After-School All-Stars (ASAS) to launch a shoe design program for students in schools across the United States beginning in March 2011.
“The SKECHERS Foundation is proud to provide funding and support to organizations like After-School All-Stars, which are committed to helping disadvantaged youth,” said SKECHERS president Michael Greenberg. “By offering children free academic, health and fitness programs and unique opportunities like shoe design classes, we’re finding new ways to connect with children across the nation – and are seeing that even smaller companies with limited budgets can find new, innovative ways to excite and engage our kids.”
In February 2011, the inaugural SKECHERS shoe design program brought 25 ASAS students from Griffith Middle School in East Los Angeles to the SKECHERS corporate headquarters in Manhattan Beach, California. During the four-week program, students attended classes led by SKECHERS footwear designers, with the goal of producing an actual prototype shoe at the end of the course. The initial design program was so successful, it will now launch in schools nationwide.
Students participating in the national program will learn about the creative process and mechanics of footwear design through a curriculum developed by the SKECHERS Fitness Group design team. Students will submit their final shoe artwork to SKECHERS’ corporate headquarters and five top finalists will be selected. The winning shoe design will then be chosen through a vote on SKECHERS’ and After-School All-Stars’ Facebook pages, with the possibility of being manufactured into an actual SKECHERS shoe.
“This new partnership with SKECHERS is a fantastic example of how businesses can give back to the community and make a meaningful difference to kids,” said former Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger, founder of After-School All-Stars. “It’s so important to inspire our youth by exposing them to new, exciting opportunities. A creative career like footwear design is something most kids don’t even know about. The kids in our programs get really excited when they learn about jobs like this. Through hands-on experiences made possible by our partnership with SKECHERS, we’re giving children a huge head start in their academic and professional lives.”
ASAS is one of several children’s programs and charities that SKECHERS supports; others include the BOBS footwear collection and the annual SKECHERS Pier to Pier Friendship Walk through the SKECHERS Foundation. The Foundation also seeks to help neighborhoods, villages and cities around the world, from donating shoes to Hurricane Katrina victims to funds for those affected by the 2010 Haiti earthquake.

MANHATTAN BEACH, Calif.–(BUSINESS WIRE)– SKECHERS USA (NYSE:SKX), a global leader in the lifestyle footwear industry and the number two footwear brand in the United States*, today announced that it filed a lawsuit against Sears Holding Corporation for selling footwear that infringes on SKECHERS’ popular Shape-ups by SKECHERS, Twinkle Toes by SKECHERS and SKECHERS Z-Strap product lines.
The suit, filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California, seeks compensatory and punitive damages as well as injunctive relief for infringing on SKECHERS’ patents, trademark, and trade dress rights, for dilution and for unfair competition. The suit states that Sears Holding Corporation is selling the infringing products at Sears and KMart’s retail stores and websites under the TheraShoe, Melrose Avenue, Paris Blues and Athletech labels.
“SKECHERS has invested tremendous resources into designing, developing and marketing our SKECHERS Shape-ups, Twinkle Toes and Z-Strap product lines. We have obtained more than 150 patents and trademarks on these lines, and have built them into brand names universally recognized around the world as synonymous with SKECHERS,” stated Philip Paccione, General Counsel of SKECHERS. “While we value our relationship with Sears, their actions are causing us tremendous damage, and we simply cannot let any company, let alone a company the size of Sears, infringe on our most valuable intellectual property.”

Gross margin in the fourth quarter 2010 was 40.5 percent versus 48.7 percent for the fourth quarter of 2009.

Robert Greenberg, SKECHERS chief executive officer, commented: “2010 was truly an amazing year for SKECHERS and our many product initiatives as we reached $2 billion in annual sales. Earlier this month, we were named Company of the Year for 2010 by Footwear Plus, and we’re the No. 2 lifestyle footwear brand and the leading source for toning footwear in the United States*. In 2010, we broadened our product range with increased kids offerings, fresh fitness styles, and a larger assortment of boots. Consistent with our approach of supporting our product through advertising, our kids’ commercials featured our animated characters, and our toning products incorporated a diverse collection of celebrities, including TV personality Brooke Burke, football legend Joe Montana and former basketball star Karl Malone. Our domestic business increased by 48.3 percent, our international wholesale business increased by 32.9 percent and our company-owned retail sales increased by 27.6 percent, which reflects the combined power of our product and marketing efforts. We continue to develop new and on target product, which we unveiled to our key accounts during FFANY in December, as well as meetings at our new corporate offices last month. We recently enlisted the power of reality star Kim Kardashian, whose 5 million plus Twitter followers and constant media attention helped drive her Shape-ups Super Bowl TV spot to headline news earlier this month. We see numerous opportunities to continue to strategically grow our business around the world, including through the addition of retail stores and further expansion of our international business. We are energized by our record sales, the enthusiasm for our product by both retailers and consumers, and the many opportunities we see in the marketplace in 2011 and beyond.”
David Weinberg, SKECHERS chief operating officer and chief financial officer, stated: “As we look forward, we are assessing all areas of our business to position ourselves to profitably grow in the future. Currently, we are carefully reviewing our expenses, which have increased in part due to significant growth over the past year. Our inventory increased by $175 million year-over-year, of which approximately $65 million is to support the increases in our international and retail expansion, and $110 million is related to our domestic wholesale business. As we aggressively work through our inventory position, we anticipate our domestic wholesale revenues and margins will be impacted in the first and second quarters, but we believe they will improve in the second half of the year. And with a healthy double-digit backlog in international as well, we believe our growth will continue to accelerate around the world. Our stores saw positive comps of over 3 percent for the quarter and over 15 percent for the year, and we are planning to open another 30 to 35 company-owned SKECHERS stores this year. We expect improvements to profitability in the latter half of the year when we anticipate a return to full-price selling with an improved margin profile from our new product offering. We are confident that the demand for our brand remains very high globally, and our momentum will continue in 2011.”
