 PROFILE
K-Swiss refuses to remain neutral in the sports shoe wars. K-Swiss sells tennis, training and children's shoes, apparel, and accessories. Consumers keep coming back to the K-Swiss Classic: The model and its derivatives account for about 65% of sales; many are marked by the five-stripes pattern and metal D-rings that hold the shoe laces. K-Swiss products are manufactured by independent suppliers -- primarily in China -- and are sold in department and specialty retail stores in about 50 countries, chiefly in the US, Europe, and the Asia/Pacific region. (Venator Group's Foot Locker accounts for nearly 25% of sales.) Chairman and president Steven Nichols owns about 90% of the company's voting shares.
