History of the Skechers Solar Fuse-Kryzik
Robert Greenberg founded Skechers in 1992 after retiring as CEO from L.A. gear which he also previously founded in 1978. The multi-billion company started out as a distributor of Doc Martens shoes. After more or less a year, Greenberg decided to turn it into his own brand that designs and markets footwear for the younger market.
1993 was the breakthrough year for Skechers when it released its Chrome Dome, a unisex grunge-style shoe that was the trend at that time. This success positioned Skechers in the footwear industry as a brand that is able to design and market shoes that fit the changing trends and suit the tastes of the young and hip market.
After years of releasing sneakers, Skechers footwear is now grouped into two divisions: performance and lifestyle. The performance division includes Skechers GoWalks and Skechers GoRun while the lifestyle division includes Skechers Relaxed Fit, BOBS, and Skechers Memory Foam.
One of the lines released under the lifestyle division is the Skechers Solar Fuse line. It’s a low-top sneaker available in two styles: slip-on construction and lace-up closure. Generally, it has a breathable upper that keeps the foot fresh and dry and an Air-Cooled Memory Foam that provides cool and lightweight cushioning, shock absorption, arch support, and stability.
Skechers is now a multi-billion dollar award-winning company that continues to develop and market products of quality, comfort, style, and practicality. It offers various products for men, women, and children across the globe in more than 170 countries through its retail stores or third-party partners.
