 PROFILE
Robert Greenberg co-founded now-passe L.A. Gear in the early 1980s, and now he wants to shoe the fashionable feet of a new generation. His company, Skechers U.S.A., markets trendy casual footwear (oxfords, boots, sneakers, sandals, and semi-dressy shoes) geared toward 12- to 25-year-olds. Skechers was founded to distribute R. Griggs Group's Dr. Martens shoes (the companies bitterly parted ways); it now sells its own brand to department and specialty stores. It also operates about 50 retail and outlet stores of its own. Skechers' products are made by Chinese contract manufacturers and are sold in more than 100 countries and territories. Greenberg and his family control about 80% of Skechers' voting power.
