New York - — Skechers USA Inc. is betting that a home-field advantage will help sell more gymgoers on its butt-toning sneakers.
The nation's second-largest athletic shoemaker plans to open 37 percent more stores this year for a total of 300 as it introduces Shape-ups shoes aimed at athletes. The footwear marks a departure from the debut shoe,pink tourmaline earrings, which promised wearers they could "get in shape without setting foot in a gym."
That pitch helped catapult Shape-ups into the ranks of the best-selling athletic shoes in the country and boost Skechers's sales 55 percent to $997.6 million in the first half. Skechers plans to keep the momentum going by luring athletes through its own stores,chanel necklace replicas singapore, where employees know more about the science behind the shoe,chanel sunglasses 2008 collection, said Leonard Armato,France coco chanel purple gold chain handbags, who runs the Shape-ups business.
