Arguably, the most notable Skecher shoes over the years have been the Skechers roller skates shoes, and the Doc Marten-like Skechers sandals and Skechers boots. In the past few years, the company has also firmly established the Skechers brand in the lucrative mainstream teenager and urban youth market with the introduction of dressy sandals and street-inspired sneakers. The one current standout shoe is the Skechers Calies, essentially an update and more stylish version of the ubiquitous Crocs shoes. SKECHERS HISTORY: Skechers was founded in 1992 by Robert Greenberg, who was also the famed founder of the once popular athletic shoe brand, LA Gear. LA Gear was one of the amazing success stories of a footwear company that managed to become the third largest sneaker manufacturer in USA within just 8 years from its incorporation in 1983. However, financial disaster soon followed and after incurring massive losses in 1991, Robert Greenberg was ousted from the company he created. Just a few days later, Robert Greenberg started Skechers. And as of today, the signs are still good for a repeat of another amazing success story. SKECHERS TRIVIAL: The success of Robert Greenberg (and indeed Skechers and L.A. Gear) could perhaps be pointed to his uncanny ability to spot trends and styles that are a sure-hit in the market, and then create his own updated versions, which usually proved to be even more a hit than their originals. The recent collaboration with illustrious designers like Mark Nason and Michelle K, however, seemed to argue otherwise in favor of injecting originality into Skechers shoes. SKECHERS & CELEBRITIES: Skechers' past and present endorsees include Ashlee Simpson, Carrie Underwood, Britney Spears, and Christina Aguilera.
